Pablo Alhach is a musician, producer and percussionist who shares his passion of music by fusing dance music with the folkloric rhythms and sounds he grew up listening to back in Cali, Colombia. Sticking to his roots, Pablo combines typical elements of his regional folkloric music such as Colombian Pacific Coast vocal chants, salsa components and other Latin-American derived rhythms with dance music.Uniting different genres from outside and inside Colombia in order to give his audience the best musical experience.
But his purpose as an artist goes beyond the musical experience itself; through his music, Pablo seeks to bring visibility towards the richness of Colombia’s culture, focusing on his region’s music, history and struggles. Having experienced living abroad, Pablo Alhach realized that Colombia was not being portrayed for its beautiful features. This inspired him into creating a more accessible form of entertainment and a more digestible format for those who weren’t aware of the richness that Colombia and Latin America have in its cultural traditions.
Pablo Alhach’s philosophy is based on the idea that everyone is heavily influenced by the sounds and textures they are surrounded by while growing up. This is a huge factor which will influence anyone's way of thinking, acting, feeling and reasoning. For Pablo, this influence has affected his way of listening to music and composing, in a way that he doesn’t need to think much about what he wants to record, but he lets these sounds appear automatically in his mind. It is just a matter of clicking “record” and letting these influences come out by themselves.
During the production process, Pablo Alhach combines electronic programming with his own recordings to generate a hybrid, tropical and genuine sound. This to him reflects the contrast between his land and “the outside world”. When recording, Alhach avoids over processing audio, which he believes is an aspect of authenticity that he can control, to maintain a spontaneous feeling throughout his music. In other words, Pablo Alhach creates a balance between the passion he found from his roots, merging them with foreign electronic music styles like afro and tribal house.
