The Making of Ranil Y Su Conjunto Tropical

The Compilation Ranil Y Su Conjunto Tropical was released February 20th, 2019. The song is Muevete Mi Amor! We have prepared a little video about the trip to Iquitos made by two Peruvian filmmakers, Mauricio Banda and Mack Prime. The paintings used here were made by iconic local self-taught painter José “Ashuco” Araujo, who has mastered a naughty blend of erotic fantasies, Amazon psychedelia, and grocery store sign ephemera in the clubs out there. We met José in a popular bar called “Refugio De Los Infieles” (Refuge of the Infidels) a place that, in recent years, has became legendary due to the fact that every inch of space is covers with José´s soft porn drawings. From there we went on a little tour to some of the places he painted, mainly brothels located close to the airport and nightclubs. In that video you can also see Jair Sanchez, singer of Los Wemblers de Iquitos and Ranil himself, filmed while washing his hands after we went throught a few hundred records together.
