Bueno Ritmo is a musical project exploring the rhythms, sounds, textures, melodies of Latino culture in the world today. The bands influences include Hawaiian music, Indie-folk, Modern Rock, Reggae, Salsa/Meringue, Middle Eastern, and Soul. With introspective lyrics dealing with faith, love, and adventure, Bueno Ritmo comes across with an encouraging, enthusiastic and hopeful spirit. Starting in January of 2008, the songs written and arranged by Marcel Arocha came to life with the help of his friends; Israel Ruiz (bass), Israel Garcia (percussion), Raul Garcia (Drums) and Brian Pearbolt (synthesizer/keys/percussion).
