STUDIO RECORDING
During the autumn of this year 2021, we gathered together and recorded a few songs for the first time at SoundMind in Helsinki. Thanks to our dear JDN member Alan Guerra, who produced the music material as part of a grant he received from Taike in Finland.
It was a very meaningful experience for our growth and learning, not only learning more about son jarocho music, but also about how to work as a team.
In 2022 we will release our recordings! Stay tuned!
Yesmith Sánchez, member of Jaranas del Norte has written her perspectives about the recording sessions. Read her story in English or in Spanish.

DÉCIMAS (ten-line stanzas) about us!
Quien diría que en Finlandia
cada jarana resuena,
hay como resumba y suena
desde Argentina a Groenlandia,
de Japón a Disneylandia
es hermoso nuestro aporte,
nuestra música es soporte
del amor y la amistad.
Un abrazo de verdad
a esas Jaranas del Norte!
Halbert Brites, August 2020
El son jarocho hermana
a los mexicanos afuera.
Y es que aunque no lo quiera
música vibra y emana
en mi sangre mexicana.
Y hoy lo tocan con amor,
con estilo, y con color.
Y al decirlo yo no miento,
¡que tocarlo es un honor!
Virginia Aguilar Mendoza, August 2020
Los jaraneros del norte
en nostálgico momento
ensamblan sentimiento.
Nuestro son sin pasaporte
es el alma y el soporte
que incendian el decimal.
Y tú les dirás Kamal
que brillan con propia luz,
con Finlandia y Veracruz
forman la Aurora Boreal.
Carlos Adolfo Rosario Gutiérrez, August 2020
