\nHis musical evolution for years was all about searching for the simplicity and soul in Cuban music &ndash\; taking apart the complex arrangements\, mixing it with North American influences\, adopting the melodic simplicity of pop music\, looking to Cuban folk traditions for inspiration &ndash\; he&rsquo\;s always exploring\, always creating something fresh and new\, and always\, it seems\, getting it just right.
