I did this song with Sur (me on the vocals) as part of the soundtrack for a venezuelan surf documentary "Kandanga, Fluyendo por la sangre del planeta" (Kandanga, flowing through the blood of the Earth), featuring the best venezuelan surfers, and filmed in different locations of the world. It really was an honor to hear myself in a movie theatre hehe :)
This part of the movie features Pedro "Amarillo" Diaz, considered one of the best surfers Venezuela ever had.
Enjoy...
