The New York-based guitarist, singer and songwriter Cecilia Villar Eljuri, who performs under the name Eljuri, compulsively fuses genres in a way that?s not entirely unusual for a Latino musician. She is, however, rather unusually a Latina rocker and electric guitarist, going back to her roots in various Latin styles after starting out as a rocker. The music on En Paz (Spanish for ?In Peace?) blends Latin rhythms with rock riffs and light electronic beats. The opener ?El Aire? has a mellow Latin Reggae vibe. ?En Un Sue?o? is a cover of a song originally written and released by Eljuri?s mother, composer Olga Eljuri de Villar, in Ecuador during the 1960?s. The album also includes Olga?s original version as a bonus track.
