Vicente García - Candela (2LP)
Candela is Vicente García’s third studio album, released in 2019, and a vibrant exploration of the musical traditions of the Dominican Republic and the wider Caribbean. The record blends merengue, bachata and Afro-Caribbean rhythms with reggae, soul and contemporary production, creating a sound that feels deeply rooted in tradition while remaining modern and adventurous. Featuring songs such as “Candela,” “Loma de Cayenas,” “Ahí Ahí” and “Palm Beach,” García explores identity, love, heritage and Caribbean culture through warm vocals and richly textured arrangements. Energetic yet soulful, Candela showcases García’s ability to reinterpret the sounds of his homeland for a new generation. This edition is presented across two vinyl LPs.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR RECORDS
Always handle your vinyl by its edges and label, avoiding fingerprints on the grooves. Before and after each play, gently clean the surface with a carbon-fiber anti-static brush or a dedicated record-cleaning solution to remove dust and debris. Store records upright in their sleeves, away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight to preserve sound quality and prevent warping..
