Puppetmaster from Merida, Venezuela

The first video we ever recorded, and one of the strangest. Shot in Bolivar Park Square in Merida, Venezuela, this video features a one man band who plays a keyboard and a makeshift drum/maracas device which also triggers these dolls on a table to dance around as he plays his odd carnival like songs. Note the pied piper effect he has on the children who gather around.

Merida Cuatro Music Video

One of the first videos we recorded in Merida, Venezuela around December of 2005. Although we lacked multiple microphones and lighting at the time, the brilliant playing of these students from the Universidad de los Andes more than makes up for any technical shortcomings! The style presented here is joropo, a very fast and frenetic music style found in Venezuela and Colombia.
