OVERVIEW

With Onda Sonora, Red Hot continued its focus and exploration of music from around the world, particularly South America. Funding came from a Portuguese company who approached Red Hot to do something to celebrate the 500th anniversary of their country and the Portuguese diaspora that included Brazil, Angola, Cape Verde and other places around the globe.  Andres Levin, a great music producer who grew up in Latin America, came on board and oversaw the project with Beco Dranoff and Red Hot co-founder, John Carlin. The album featured the first and only collaboration between Caetano Veloso and David Byrne, “Dreamworld”, a song about Carmen Miranda and the shifting identity of Iberian-American culture.
