'Ale'a - Kaulupono
Review by paula alves
Kaulupono is the latest album by the Hawaiian musical group 'Ale'a. The album is a beautiful fusion of contemporary and traditional Hawaiian music, showcasing the band's vocal and instrumental skills.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy track "Pua Hone," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, 'Ale'a takes listeners on a musical journey with tracks like "Kaulupono," "Hawaiian Soul," and "Ku'u Pua I Paoakalani," which showcase the group's ability to blend traditional Hawaiian sounds with modern influences.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Ke Kali Nei Au," a classic Hawaiian song that 'Ale'a has given a fresh, modern twist. The group's harmonies on this track are particularly impressive, and the instrumentation is tastefully arranged.
