A short interview with Santiago Salazar by Kazuumi Ishii

How did the collaboration with Gonzalo Chomat and Iris Sandra Cepeda ?

Esteban play Piano sometimes for Gonzalo’s salsa band. Esteban is also helping Sandra do a R&B spanish album. Esteban and I started this track at my house, later I sent him what I changed and a week after that, he sends me the vocals and I was BLOWN AWAY !

So, are you still working on the album or have already finished it ?

Yes, we are still working on tracks for the album, we have about 6 in post production and still working on more.

What’s next for Ican ?

What’s next for Ican is ANYTHING ! we are just trying to stay busy and Esteban is also working with a band he is called ‘Tuesday Night Squad’. more of a hip/hop jazz fusion thing, really good shit !
