To order

Approaching then a well thought variety, close to salsa erotica, he lessens the importance of percussions and pushes on his great vocal capacities. His charming voice, well deserved by modern instruments and production means, fits his style like a glove.

And if he privileges modernity, the tradition levels permanently, and binds the whole in a subtle cocktail.

The charisma that he demonstrates on stage (rather uncommon with salsa's singers) insufflates his concerts with something fine and very particular : for this reason, they are a different experiment but quite as pleasant as listening to his discs. Issac ? : everybody likes him !
