The remarkable and violent Mexican film Amores Perros boasts an equally exhilarating soundtrack. Producer Gustavo Santaolalla has assembled two discs' worth of Latin rock and alternative music songs that are both included in and inspired by the film, interspersed with his own original instrumental pieces. The result is an epic, sometimes unwieldy collection, with contributions from usual suspects (Control Machete, Cafe Tacuba) as well as unexpected guests ('60s hit makers the Hollies, female rockers Dover). The first disc boasts past hits from artists, and the second disc includes songs inspired by the theme "amores perros" (roughly translated as "dog loves"). The Amores Perros soundtrack is being marketed as a Latin rock collection, and while it does include solid tracks from traditionalists Fiebre, exciting newcomer Julieta Venegas, and the Trent Reznor-esque Moenia, there's more here than searing guitars and fiery vocals. Salsa queen Celia Cruz's "La Vida Es un Carnaval" sets a passionate rhythm, Titan's "Corazon" rides a funkadelic groove, and "Dime Cuando" is pure bossa nova bliss. --Joey Guerra

Summary: A great intro to Spanish language music 2006-09-15
Comment: I'll never forget seeing the trailer for Amores Perros the first time. The film looked intersting, but the thing that blew me away was the music. Turns out it was Control Machete's "De Amores Perros". I didn't understand a word of it, but I wanted to hear it again and it bounced around in my head for days until I received the CD. I have eclectic music tastes in general, but this CD opened a whole new world of music for me.
The set is divided into two discs. The first contains music from the movie including some snippets of the atmospheric score by Gustavo Santaolalla. The styles veer wildly throughout covering a wide range. There is the remarkable "Si Senor" and "Pesada" by Control Machete. This rap en espanol group absolutely blows my mind. "Senor" is as catchy as can be and "Pesada" has a nice heavy, miltary feel to it. Celia Cruz's "La Vida Es Un Carnival" is a classic salsa track that cannot be denied. There are two solid takes on the pop song "Luchia de Gigantes". Other standout tracks are the featherlight dance cut "Corazon" and new-old style "La Cumbia del Garrote" and "Dame El Poder".
Then there is the second disc! This was my introduction to some of my favorite acts: Julieta Venegas, Cafe Tacuba, and Ely Guerra. "Me Van A Matar" by Venegas is an alt rock track that will appeal to anyone who liked it when Alanis still had some fire in her. Cafe Tacuba starts with the gentle "Avientame" which blends into the more intense and simmering "Dog:God". Ely Guerra contributes the sultry bossa nova "Dime Cuando" (if you like it, go pick up her awesome debut album "Lotofire").
Then, of course, there is Control Machete's incredible "De Perros Amores". This track is unbelievable. It starts with a classical guitar riff. Then Fermin IV lays down these guteral, violent sounding rhymes and then the chorus kicks in and you could almost cry from the beauty of it. Heartrending and I barely understand the language. This is the highpoint of an extremely strong second disc.
Music is universal, so don't worry if you don't speak Spanish. If you are interested in broadening your musical horizons pick this up now. You get all kinds of Spanish language music (and a couple of English tracks). Enjoy!

Summary: I loved this though I do not know Spanish 2005-12-29
Comment: I loved all the songs on this cd set. I'm not much into OSTs, but after seeing the movie, I decided to add this to my collection though I did not know Spanish, afterall, music does not have any language!
Nacha Pop's Lucha De Gigantes and Control Machete's De Perros Amores just blew me away. Highly recommended.

Comment: I am probably one of the hugest fans of Amores Perros the movie and when I went to buy the soundtrack, I was as equally impressed with the quality and performances. This 2 disc set combines music from the movie, as well as music inspired by the movie.I really enjoy both cds and there are tracks that stand out on both. On the first cd is the great track "si senor" you can jam to that forever. I also love "Lucha de Gigantes" and of course the classic "Vida es un Carnaval" by the late great reina de salsa, Celia Cruz. As for disc 2, it contains great tracks as well.My two favorites are Cafe Tacuba and Moenia (one of my favorite groups of all time). If you have the movie on dvd, you can see the Cafe Tacuba music video for "muerdeme" I was kind of hoping that the Moenia video would be on there, but it's still awesome nevertheless. So if you're a rock en espanol fan, or you just liked the music on the soundtrack this is an awesome choice.Highly recommneded!!!!!!!!
