Pharaway Sounds presents:

EL APAGÓN: "Peruvian Chicha from the Horóscopo Vaults, 1978 - 1988" LP (PHS052)

OUT NOVEMBER 16, 2017

During its 15 years of existence, Discos Horóscopo was the home of the biggest names of the chicha sound. From the legendary Chacalón & La Nueva Crema to Los Destellos, Los Ovnis, Grupo Alegría…We present the first ever compilation dedicated to this groundbreaking Peruvian label.

11 tracks taken from rare 45s and LPs.

“It was these groups that, as part of a cultural complex where Discos Horóscopo had a central role, built and developed the stage of "chicha music", filling the lives of thousands of men and women who made us of their right to joy in a changing yet greatly convulsed environment that, nevertheless, offered opportunities to build a better life in the future.” – Carlos Leyva Arroyo
