@ MySpace.com :Orlando Cachaito is the son of Orestes López and nephew of Israel ‘Cachao’ López (bass, composer and founding father of the descarga, the jam session), the brothers who were at the forefront of the revolutions in Cuban music from the 30s to the 50s
@ SASA Music :His earliest memory is of carrying his father’s manuscript case to radio sessions by the Havana Symphony and often on the same day Arcaño’s legendary danzón orchestra. Since a small child Cachaíto was favoured by his father and was taken to many sessions and rehearsals where he sat and watched his father’s generation at work.
@ SpikeMagazine.com : The deep, dark drum and bass vibes that underpin each track forms a structure that allows the players plenty of room for manouevre. Hugh Masekela guests on “Tumbanga” and his ethereal trumpet integrates beautifully with the dub effects on Cachaito’s bass.
