Denise Rivera is a voice you may have heard
somewhere and not even known it. From
commercials, to voice over work, to narration for documentaries and even GPS
systems, she is a distinctive, sought after talker and as it turns out,
singer. Latin Female Voice offers 14
tracks of her singing that is very good and includes some cover songs.

We could
not secure a list of which songs were covers as of this posting, but Track 4 is
a good cover remake of Sade’s hit Smooth
Operator. This is well recorded,
engineered and a very pleasant surprise overall. She can sing, this is an exceptional
recording down to the engineering and the musicianship is also top rate.
The DSD
2.0 Stereo is rich, warm and articulate throughout delivering every track with
a truly live presence that is not gimmicky or forced. Though not meant to be a live recording per
se, it has great presence and will impress music lovers and audiophiles
alike. The PCM 2.0 CD tracks pale in
comparison, though they sound goods for the format, cannot match the DSD range
or fullness.
A paper
foldout with brief notes is also included.
