NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / November 7, 2025 / Visionary artist Corina Bartra breaks new ground with Naked Jungle (Selva Esencial), her latest release on Blue Spiral Records. Known for her pioneering Afro-Peruvian Jazz fusion, Bartra now turns inward-exploring the raw spirituality and rhythm of the Amazon in a stripped-down collaboration of voice and percussion with Kenny Hassler. Minimalist yet deeply expressive, Naked Jungle channels the heartbeat of nature through organic rhythm and vocal improvisation. From the sly groove of "Lazy Monkey" to the meditative calm of "I Am Who I Am," and the untamed spirit of "El Jaguar," the album honors both the vitality and fragility of the natural world.

"The jungle is alive. Its sensuous, rhythmic, humorous, and wise," says Bartra. "In its primitivism, it holds its own sophistication - truth often misunderstood by modern arrogance and greed."

A spiritual and ecological statement, Naked Jungle reminds listeners to reconnect with what is essential, wild, and pure.
