Hermanos Gutiérrez shared a new single, “Barrio Hustle,” which arrived with an accompanying music video. The track is set for Alejandro and Estevan Gutiérrez’ upcoming album, Sonido Cósmico, due out on June 14 via Easy Eye Sound.
Produced by The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach, Sonido Cósmico has seen two previews ahead of “Barrio Hustle” — “Until We Meet Again” and “Low Sun.”
The guitarists recently shared the eclectic influences heard on “Barrio Hustle” with Guitar World, who premiered the track/video. Alejandro noted the song’s Peruvian cumbia leanings.
“The combination between catchy Latin-rooted melodies with the wah-wah effect sounded very visionary to me for that time period,” he said. “I tried to incorporate that sound for my part of Barrio Hustle, by playing tribute to those cumbia melodies from Peru.”
“My style of playing is a mix between fingerpicking, bass line and percussion,” Estevan added. “My influence come from the Salsa tones that I love. But I’m also a huge fan of ’90s old-school hip-hop. Sometimes I hear a bit of a hip-hop beat in my style of playing.”
