(ENGLISH) Sr.Mandril was born on 2002 when Germán González and Ramsés Ramírez decided to mix their ideas on the creation of this project. This way the electronic elements are mixed with acoustic and electrical instruments such as guitars, bass, keyboards, percussion, sax, trumpet and voice, creating a construction of colours, sounds and influences that go from acid jazz and ambient to latin, and from lounge and funk to trip-hop with a progressive rhythm and a slice of house. After releasing his first album on 2005 with great comments of specialized media, Sr. Mandril releases his second album in february 2008 named Terragroove including 11 tracks, produced and recorded in Media Luna by Ramsés Ramírez and mixed by Ramsés Ramírez and Gerry Rosado. This new album is a very fine fusion of genres like acid jazz, funk, folk and rock with electronics and latin percussion.
