Global Talk

Global Talk fuses different languages, musical styles, and instruments to create a revolutionary sound that hopes to cross cultural boundaries. The soul of Global Talk's diverse style reaches beyond academic boundaries, and a cultural discourse inclusion or exclusion, creativity musical threads of collaboration.
If violinist Stephane Grappelli (R.I.P.) had a protege', it would be Jesus Florido! Tunisian-born poet provocateur Malek brings a sophisticated amalgam of Arabic and French prose (to name two languages in their pockets) to the mic. Worldly audioelectronics-effectronics that's cerebral mood chili to be had. Mumtaz! Stand-out track: Appocalyptik March Kimgerly.
"Global talk", is a Techno/World/Trance/Latin/Rock melting pot with Malek Eye lending his words of wisdom to color the Tunes. Jesus FLorido with his electrical violin gives an effect of a revolutionary explosion to the new sound of Global Talk.
Ken Truhlar adds a rock touch of an incredible new sound in the song Stand Up.

Jesus Florido:
Music is the soundtrack of life, I say. I was born in paradise Venezuela, in the city of Sunsets and Music, Barquisimeto. I grew up with all kinds of music around my house. I have travelled the world and lived in the U.S. for a long time. My dad a great singer of folk music, Tangos and Bossas, il mio Nono and his operas, my older cousins with Led Zeppelin and Miles Davis, an open format radio with all kinds of music. And don't let me forget seranading!.yes like you've read in books and watched in movies? It is still alive in my beautiful home country, so I would grab my violin since I was very young and play along with the older and experienced 'serenateros', making up stuff and learning to play what was in my ears. All that combined with a solid classical training with some of the best violinists in the world makes me feel like I am dreaming it all. So since my background is very diverse so my music has to be diverse too. These tracks are either from my first solo album "Heading North", or the one I am currently working on "Global talk", a Techno/World/Trance/Latin/Rock melting pot with the great Malek lending his words of wisdom to color to my music. Keep in touch.much more to come including a show of my acoustic side (where it all began)! Teaching is also an essential part of my life, I do clinics and workshops all over the world taylored to the specific needs of each school or camp (Feel free to inquire about that too) and of course I freelance, but only with the people that I have something in common with, so come on down and check some shows out. I love to play live! Much Love to all
