Alpha Caribe created by La Usurpadora Proyectos is a sonic constellation whose sounds are presented as a authentic connection within the Caribbean to build a new celestial landscape. Comprised of songs proposed by eight invited artists, serving as an intercontinental link throughout the Caribbean, its cultural diaspora, and Europe. Artists: Carlos María Romero (Colombia), Enerolisa Nuñez (República Dominicana), Orestes Hernández (Cuba), Katrina Coombs (Jamaica), Mafalda Mondestin (Haití), Nelson González (Aruba), José Castrellón (Panamá) y A k u z u r u (Trinidad y Tobago).
Alpha Caribe was part of the public program of the exhibition ‘One Month After Being Known In That Island’ curated by by Yina Jiménez Suriel (Dominican Republic) and Pablo Guardiola (Puerto Rico) at Kulturstiftung Basel H. Geiger sponsored by Caribbean Art Initiative.
In this constellation orbit a series of songs that use ancestral sounds and spirits from the past to shake consciences in the future; generating connection points between inheritances and sound symbiosis result of the migrations out from the Antilles to the continental Caribbean and their Echoes
Born on the far away limits between light and shadow, the Alpha II constellation receives within its orbit a series of sounds. Its sound and gravitational proximity attracts energy fields that from the spiritual, the urban, the racial and the romantic, bring life to original and brought rhythms.
Alpha Caribe is a journey through multiple consciences and ways of understanding the sonic sidereal angle that occurs throughout the Caribbean. This last constellation has as its subtext the journey to infinity, produced by the sound waves of the different musical discourses placed in this dimension.
