Mmmmmm. What a voice. This is a silky add to the Big Med Playlist for The Big One. Karina Nistal – Symptoms.
I don’t know if it’s soul or jazz or a fusion of both but Houston-born Nistal absolutely nails this song. Close your eyes, sit back, and listen to this song play out.
Singer/songwriter Karina Nistal is known to align herself with diverse and solid collaborations to showcase her extensive range. Her work consists of emotive jazz vocals on downtempo tracks, rapping in Spanish for the worldly sounds of reggaeton, or fusing soulful Latin vocals with lively dance music.
Music captivated the native Houstonian at an early age. Karina indulged in old school hip hop, rhythm & blues, soul and jazz. It was Karina’s mixed Hispanic heritage (Mexican and Cuban) that spotlighted Latin styles-traditional mariachi folk music and the Afro-Cuban beats of salsa.
Her sophomore album, Nistalgia (independent) was released in October of 2010. This album showcases a more soulful side of Karina along with some of her best songwriting. Nistalgia includes songs with her band ranging from Latin, Hip Hop, Reggae, Bossanova, and a few hot Dance remixes.
