Si*Sé is the self-titled debut Album by Si*Sé.

Band Review from (http://www.luakabop.com/sise/info.html):

"Formed two years ago by singer Carol C and programmer/DJ U.F.LOW, Si*Sé bring together the atmospheric vibes of electronica with the crackle of live instruments. The results are electric: "It’s about mixing stuff up that’s not usually mixed together," says Carol C. "We’re a band from New York City and we try and combine all of its musical traditions including hip-hop beats, Latin rhythms and down-tempo electronic music because that’s what we hear everyday of our lives. It’s a prelude to the future."
