Hi everyone
In this blog I must talk about a person that I would like to meet. Everybody surely wishes or wished to meet a person, some people for love of that person others only admiration for them or simply beauty.
In my case, the reason I would like to meet a person is an admiration for his qualities as a musician. His name is Aldo Asenjo known as "el Macha" and he has proliferous career in different music groups. Playing from punk to "boleros" like Chilean folklore music.
This person is from Villa Alemana in the 5th region of Valparaíso, Chile. He started his career in a group called "La floripondio" from the same place where they played punk, ska and reggae music in the 90's, they became the first group that played these music genres. Particularly, I love this music, especially the SKA genre.
Then, he continued his music in another group and where he became well-known by all the people of Chile and South-America. "Chico trujillo" was a revolution of Chilean cumbia and they called this genre as "Cumbia Chilombiana" due to the Cumbia music from Colombia.
Finally, "Macha" and his musicians created "Macha y El bloque depresivo" where the music turned more sentimental, they took the classic old music of Latin-America for their covers and own songs.
In this way, Aldo Asenjo is one of the major exponents of music in Chile. Taking a little of everything and into a nice music sauce when listening. Also, due to his long career and his characteristic outgoing personality, he has won uncountable awards in Chile and the world, touring everywhere.
