Their aim is to make people aware of llanera culture in a different way from the traditional way. Through fusion they aim to generate curiosity and encourage the listener to want to know more about and to care about their roots.
Chimó Psicodélico is a band from Arauca –Arauca (Colombia) who intended to recover and experiment with the traditional music. They are comprised seven musicians; four traditional musicians and three who play jazz and rock. Daniel Melifero is the singer and the main songwriter. Amín Castellanos Herrera plays the electric guitar; Yensi Ferney Trujillo is the bass player, Carlos Gutierrez plays the bandola. The bandola is a Catalan string instrument with four orders and one string on each order. It is tuned as a mandolin on thirds, fourths and fifths, which in the Llano region is called “transports”. It is played “pajueliao”, making it easier for the performers of the string, so they can play them strongly with the plectrum with harmony to make the melody;and llanero cuatro, as the tiple. This instrument comes directly from the guitar of four orders which was brought to America by the Spanish settlers.The cuatro is played in the Llanos to accompany other instruments, it`s played ripped, with quick beats silencing the vibration of the strings; Camilo Guerrero singer and llanera harp (it has 30 or 34) strings. The harp is linked to the “joropo”, the national ballroom dance of Llanos Orientales marked by lilting stamping steps in three-quarter time), Anderson Sánchez plays the drums and minor percussion; and, Rafael Fontecha plays the acoustic guitar and harmonica “a mouth organ wind instrument consisting of a small rectangular case containing a set of metal reeds connected to a row of holes, over which the player places the mouth and exhales and inhales to produce the tones”.

Que bonitos son sus ojos
Son tan bonitos
Son tan hermosos
Señorita
Que bonitos son sus ojos
Son tan bonitos
¡Que bonito es el llano cuando usted sonrie señorita!
¡Que bonito es el llano cuando usted sonrie princesa!
Yo te oscurecí en la luz
Yo que me ahogué en lo seco
Como la palma del palmar adentro
Yo te oscurecí en la luz
Yo que me ahogué en lo seco
Como la palma del palmar adentro
Como no volverme loco si su pelo huele al monte
Del más profundo
En el horizonte
Es que el aroma de su cabello me paraliza
Me hipnotiza, mi cuerpo intimida
¡Que bonito es el llano cuando usted sonrie señorita!
¡Que bonito es el llano cuando usted sonrie princesa!
Yo te oscurecí en la luz
Yo que me ahogué en lo seco
Como la palma del palmar adentro
Yo te oscurecí en la luz
Yo que me ahogué en lo seco
Como la palma del palmar adentro
The song "Señorita" by CHIMÓ PSICODÉLICO is a romantic and dreamy tribute to a beautiful woman, describing the beauty of her eyes and the way she smiles. The song begins by repeating the line "Señorita, que bonitos son sus ojos" which translates to "Miss, how beautiful your eyes are." This repetition emphasizes the admiration and hypnotic effect the woman has on the singer. The next few lines compare the woman's beauty to a sunrise in the singer's homeland of llano, a type of plains in Latin America. The llano is a recurring theme throughout the song, where it is portrayed as a place of natural beauty and happiness.
The second part of the song talks about the singer's own struggles and contrasts them with the beauty of the woman. The lines "Yo te oscurecí en la luz, yo que me ahogué en lo seco, como la palma del palmar adentro" which translates to "I darkened you in the light, I drowned in the dryness, like the palm of the palm grove inside" suggest that the singer may have gone through some emotional turmoil and darkness before meeting the woman. The mention of the palm grove is a reference to the llano and adds to the sense of nostalgia and longing for the happiness that the woman brings.
Overall, "Señorita" is a romantic and poetic expression of admiration for a beautiful woman and the beauty of the llano.
