Horizontes · Release strategy, PR and ads · 2025

Salsa composer and multi-instrumentalist Alberto Caicedo, born in Guapi on Colombia’s Pacific coast and based in Luxembourg, released his third album Horizontes on November 20, 2025, after four singles.

What we did

  • Release strategy: a plan built with Alberto’s team in March 2025, with three target markets (France, Spain and Latin America) and a singles-first calendar leading to the album and its release concert.
  • Social media and content: reels, stories and live content for each single, the pre-release show at Unison Studios and the album concert, plus a newsletter to his fans.
  • Meta Ads: one Spotify listening campaign per single and one for the album, aimed at salsa and Latin music fans in Europe and the Americas.
  • Press release for the album, and an artist-curated Spotify playlist, Salsa Night, to extend the life of the catalogue.

Horizontes (2025)

Alberto Caicedo · Album · November 20, 2025 · 10 tracks

Horizontes is a journey that begins in Guapi, a small town on Colombia’s Pacific coast where rhythm is part of the landscape, and travels to Luxembourg, where Caicedo now lives. His arrangements unite Afro-Pacific percussion, salsa brass, Latin-jazz harmony and European lyricism, from the gratitude of “La Tierra de la Belleza” to the bachata “El Amor No Entiende” and “Reloj”, a tribute to the great Mexican boleristas.

Recorded at AC Studios in Luxembourg and mixed by Daniel Hahnfeld, the album gathers musicians from eight countries under Caicedo’s direction. It was celebrated on release night with a concert at the Trifolion Echternach. Artwork by Eddie White.
