CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com The remarkable and violent Mexican film Amores Perros boasts an equally exhilarating soundtrack. Producer Gustavo Santaolalla has assembled two discs' worth of Latin rock and alternative music songs that are both included in and inspired by the film, interspersed with his own original instrumental pieces. The result is an epic, sometimes unwieldy collection, with contributions from usual suspects (Control Machete, Cafe Tacuba) as well as unexpected guests ('60s hit makers the Hollies, female rockers Dover). The first disc boasts past hits from artists, and the second disc includes songs inspired by the theme "amores perros" (roughly translated as "dog loves"). The Amores Perros soundtrack is being marketed as a Latin rock collection, and while it does include solid tracks from traditionalists Fiebre, exciting newcomer Julieta Venegas, and the Trent Reznor-esque Moenia, there's more here than searing guitars and fiery vocals. Salsa queen Celia Cruz's "La Vida Es un Carnaval" sets a passionate rhythm, Titan's "Corazon" rides a funkadelic groove, and "Dime Cuando" is pure bossa nova bliss. --Joey Guerra Similar CDs

CD ReviewsA MUST LISTEN 11/27/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "FOR EVERYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN LISTENING TO WHAT IS GOING ON iN THE WORLD OF POP-ROCK AND HIP HOP IN LATIN AMERICA THIS IS THE CD TO BUY. THIS FILM IS ONE OF THE BEST FILMS BY A MEXICAN DIRECTOR AND THE MUSIC HE CHOSE FOR IT IS AMAZING. EVERY ONE SHOULD SEE THIS MOVIE AND LISTEN TO THIS RECORD CAUSE IT DEFINES THE REALITY OF A YOUNG LATIN AMERICA. THIS IS A MUST HAVE IN EVERYONES COLLECTION. (sorry for my spelling, I'm not american)" This ain't the sort of music that I normally listen to... D. A. Hosek | Santa Monica, CA USA | 05/08/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Every so often, an album comes out that redefines how you listen to music. This is one of those albums. I'll readily admit to an eclectic music collection, but I've never particularly cared for rap or hip-hop. This soundtrack (and in particular, the contributions from Control Machete) has caused me to reexamine my view on the genre. I first became aware of the music from the trailer to the film (still haven't seen it yet), and was so blown away by Control Machete's De Amores Perros which appears in the trailer, that I decided that it would be worth twenty bucks just to own that one song. Interestingly, while there's a lot of crossing boundaries, it's the music that's farthest away from my usual listening (the hip hop material) that captures my listening the most and that will almost certainly drive my own writing in new directions.-dh" Retrato exelente de la pelicula Enrique Guevara | Monterrey N.L. Mex | 11/26/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Este CD doble es, una muestra de lo que puede llegar a representar un sound track bien planeado y dirigido, hecho especialemte para la pelicula o con canciones para las cuales estan hechas las pelicula. Tiene desde "La vida es un carnaval" de Celia Cruz, hasta "artilleria pesada" de Control Machete. Estas como canciones ya hechas pero que forman parte de la cinta. Las conciones hechas "a la medida" fueron cordinadas por Gustavo Santaolalla y compuestas por los mejores musicos "urabanos", si se me permite el termino, de Mexico. Un CD que igual puede oirse escucharse o ponerese de Banda Sonora en nuestra vida diaria."
