Arcano’s latest album, Desde el otro lado del The East River, presents a rhythmic and energetic approach to American-produced salsa music. The foundational elements of percussion, piano, vocals, and assorted horns provide a perfect mix of salsa swag and style that is not limited to Latin styles, but jazz, funk, and classical elements, too... Arcano does not suffer from similitude to any great extent... Overall, Arcano presents a satisfying mix of salsa music that is as fiery as a bowl of Habanero salsa.

“Carrying the torch forward... I remain highly impressed with Grupo Arcano, whose members are representative of the younger generation committed to the perpetuation of “salsa dura.” After having the opportunity to check out their four-track demo, I wish them well-deserved success in their quest to produce a full-length CD.” - Latin Beat Magazine (June/July 2011)
