Influenced by Antony Santos, Luis Vargas, Raulin Rodriguez, Luis Segura. Ramón Cordero learned the requinto at the feet of his uncle in the plantain fields of Mao, Dominican Republic. He put the guitar down for two years to care for his dying mother, Altagracia, a vigil that reshaped his understanding of love and loss. Now, from the quiet of her empty house, he writes bachatas not about youthful flings, but about the weight of memory in a survivor's hands. These are the songs of the long silence after.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Esta caoba de Monte Cristi
se ríe de mí, Altagracia.
Son las tres de la mañana de un junio sin lluvia
y el polvo de la lija huele a tierra rancia.
Quise hacerte un trono, mi vieja,
y me está saliendo una trampa.

[Chorus]
Y te hago esta mecedora que no se mece,
se queda quieta, un ancla terca en la galería.
Parece un chiste malo, de esos que no te daban risa,
igual que mis promesas de ese último día.

[Verse 2]
“Muchacho, deja eso,” me decías, con la mano en la cintura,
“tú naciste pa' la cuerda, no pa'l clavo.”
Me saqué una astilla y por un segundo, mi locura
fue gritar tu nombre pa' que me curaras la mano.
El martillo me queda grande y la fe muy chiquita.

[Chorus]
Y te hago esta mecedora que no se mece,
tiene tu maña, es terca como la yuca brava.
Parece que aprendió a guardarse el movimiento,
por miedo a que el balance, al fin, no sirva para nada.

[Bridge]
Quizás no es para que vuelvas y te sientes,
sino para que tu ausencia tenga un sitio donde descansar.
Un lugar con mis huellas torpes, mis fallos evidentes,
para que el silencio aprenda a no pesar.

[Outro]
Se quedó chueca, Altagracia...
Pero la dejé en la galería, por si acaso.
