Con los Pies en el Suelo [Keeping both feet on the floor] (2020)
«Con Los Pies En El suelo» (CLPEES), translated as “Keeping both feet on the floor“, is the name of Cepeda’s second album, available since October 9th, 2020.
It is his second album after “Principios” and its re-released version, “Nuestros Principios“.
Listen!
In short
- New topics and sounds: Cepeda goes back to a more 2000’s pop-rock sound, even with some urban touches… but without losing more calm down songs. He tells stories about social subjects such as bullying and violence. There are love songs, but with a different approach than on the first album.
- “Gentleman” was the first single extracted from the album; “Si Tú Existieras” (If you were real) was the second; “Con los pies en el suelo” (Keeping both feet on the floor) was the launching single
- There are two featuring songs: 2007, featuring David Otero, and “Salí a buscarte” (I went out looking for you) featuring Funambulista (diego Cantero)
- The name of the album is the same as the name of the firts track, but both names have different interpretations: the album title let de audience know that, after some years in the music industry, Cepeda is the same man, with the same values. Althoug the common proverb in english uses “ground” as the surface of the Earth, the title refers to the surface where we walk on… you can see the practical joke in the album cover. The song title is a message for all his “haters”, letting them know that his response to all his menssages is launching new music and be happy with his music career… keeping his feet on the ground.
- Sadly, there are no song in English but Cepeda told some reporters that he wants to include songs in English in the next album (or re-released version of CLPEES).
