"The trombonist Dewell Narváez appears again in the music scene, this time as musical producer of the album Asunto Social (Social Matter) recorded by the Son De Cuba International Orchestra. The director of the legendary Narváez Orchestra, stands out in the performance of the Puerto Rican cuatro in the song "Guajira Con Amor" and playing the trombone in the "Canguil a la SDC" also. On the other hand, two other notable members made their contribution: José Mangual Jr. who plays the maracas and the güiro in all the songs and participates in "Canguil A Lo SDC" finale. And the vocalist Renzo Padilla, who sings "Pa 'La Batalla". Son de Cuba is an orchestra that was born in a neighborhood of the city of Pereira, Colombia called Cuba. Under the direction of William Cano Tabares they've undertaken a musical work according to the sound of the salsa brava, thinking of the dancer, without neglecting the great value of daily social content in lyrics, as well as themes around the rumberos environment. Asunto Social offers in its songs a diverse menu of messages. The song "Asunto Social", which gives title to the album, is a sound painting that invites the change of attitude of society. "Mujer Ajena" (Another's Woman) is a declaration of forbidden love feeding impossible illusions. "Salsa Al Barrio" is a citizen complaint of those who face harsh daily life and invite reflection. "Melodioso" dedicated to the businessman of music concerts Edgar Berrío. "Barco A La Deriva" (Ship Drifting) is the manifestation of nostalgic love memories. "Guajira Con Amor" (Guajira with Love) is a creation of William Cano for his wife Paula. "Pa 'La Batalla" (Into The Battle) is dedicated to Salsa collectors and the musical meetings that are organized among them. "Canguil A Lo SDC" is a reinterpretation with new elements, in its arrangements and disposition of horns. The cover is a creation of the painter Andrés Saúl Arango -- born in Medellín -- in which the three pillars for the construction in society: Education, art, and peace are symbolized. A production of Hitmusical in association with Dewell Narváez. This is Asunto Social, an album full of authenticity. A neighborhood expression turned on musical art with Colombian talent and the experience of first-class guests." --Diego Andrés Aranda Estrada English and Spanish lyrics included.
