Unfortunately, not much new soul music has been released lately that manages to reach my heart, realizing that it’s not easy to add something original to the rich history of the genre. Miami Maestro Jason Joshua<\/a> is the extraordinary exception, because although his sound is rooted in the late 60s and early 70s, his songs and vocal range are truly unique. His previous album Alegr\u00eda Y Tristeza<\/em><\/a> made it to my 2020 year-end list<\/a>, sophomore full-length La Voz De Oro<\/em><\/a> (translated: The Golden Voice – listen and you’ll understand why) is at least as attractive. In nine new mid-tempo tunes (hits!), influences from Latin soul, salsa, funk, pop and cinematic psychedelia are mixed with themes of love, happiness, mental state and betrayal, a classy cocktail with those great vocals as the icing in the glass. They are inviting and moody, but also groovy and rough around the edges, touching head and heart.<\/p>\n
