Genre: Latin
Cuchata blends aspects of traditional and experimental music into their unique Latin Alternative sound. However, this genre only incorporates some meaning of their original compositions, which are influenced by afro-latin traditions and elements of rock, hip-hop, drum and bass, avante-garde jazz, dub reggae and afro-beat. After several years of traveling, Marcelo returned to America with a mission. As he had become disenchanted of the idea of a single culture, he began to embrace multiple cultures for their uniqueness and musical influences. It is this concept which led to the integrative sounds that became Cuchata.
"Cuchata creates a lovely mood on their new record. This record is a grower and will please the new listener as well as the latin/World music afficianado."
Darek Mazzone - KEXP 90.3 FM Seattle/ WNYE 91.5Fm NYC
"This is sassy, classy, electrifying rock en espanol like you've never heard..."

"Por su incansable trabajo y esfuerzo en la música y por seguir sus sueños más allá, estamos seguros que muy pronto sabremos mucho más de Marcelo Quiñones, un artista multifacético!"
Yasmin Guerra - El Cannillita
"The marvelous thing about Cuchatas music is that they weave all the threads of their influences into a handsome musical fabric that is at once fully-integrated and personal. It certainly helps that Quinonez is a terrific songwriter."
