Barrabas, released in 1972, is the debut album by the Spanish funk/rock group Barrabas. Latin-derived percussion, repetitive basslines, and psychedelic developments intertwine to create a groove that is simultaneously earthy and ecstatic. This tribal funk, born in the pre-disco era, is a type of musical style that would later be reevaluated in the context of Balearic and nu-disco. It is characterized not by immediate flashiness, but by a sustained rhythm that gradually affects time and space. This is an important work in which Spanish psychedelic funk intersects with modern dance music sensibilities. Featured on the Loft Classic track "Woman."
