One of the key components in having success in the music industry, especially lately, is to have a sound that is unique and can span across genres in order to gain a large following. Ramon Melendi Espina, or just Melendi, did this by combining rock, flamenco and rumba influences to produce pop music that can appeal to a large number of people.
In the case of Melendi’s live show, and music in general, I really have to attribute the idea of music crossing over all language barriers because I do not understand Spanish. But… I appreciate and loved watching his live set as much as anyone who does understand Spanish. The language barrier allowed me to take more notice of the music itself, and the emotion that he put into every single word. With his band in the background, and him front in center, looking super cool and rockstar-like, he puts you under a spell with his emotions. He sings as if he is only singing to you and everyone else sort of disappears. You are suddenly snapped back to reality as soon as he finishes his song because the crowd around you cheers and applauds at a deafening decibel.
