Carlos Santana, the legendary guitarist whose sound has transcended generations, returns with Sentient, an album that vibrates with the energy of human connection and spiritual elevation. Featuring 11 meticulously curated tracks three of them previously unreleased. The record showcases Santana’s signature fusion of Latin rock, blues, and soul while weaving in a deeper narrative of unity and transcendence.
Described by Santana as a collection of “sound resonance vibrations that bring humanity together to celebrate our own divinity, our own light”.
Sentient isn’t just an album it’s a movement. The carefully remastered and sequenced tracks tell a new and dramatic story, unfolding like a cosmic experience meant to inspire and uplift.
One of the album’s highlights is its stellar lineup of guests, including the legendary Michael Jackson, trumpeter Mike Davis, Smokey Robinson and Darryl McDaniels aka DMC. Their contributions, seamlessly integrated into Santana’s musical universe, add layers of richness and dynamism. From fiery guitar solos to hypnotic rhythms, every track pulses with Santana’s signature spirituality and electrifying energy.
“I know you’re going to enjoy it because the music brings hope and courage—it’s like a tsunami wave of hope and encouragement,” Santana shares. Indeed, Sentient isn’t just an auditory experience; it’s a call to embrace light, love, and resilience.
With its masterful blend of old and new, Sentient reaffirms Santana’s place as a musical visionary. Fans can expect a sonic journey that not only honors his legacy but also propels it forward with renewed purpose.
