Las Ketchup - The Ketchup Song ( HQ 1080p HD Upscale )

Las Ketchup is a Latin Grammy Award nominated 4-girl group composed of sisters Lola Muñoz, Pilar Muñoz, Lucía Muñoz and Rocío Muñoz from Córdoba in Andalucia, Spain. They are the daughters of Juan Muñoz, a flamenco guitarist known as Tomatito (Small Tomato). Before Rocío's addition to the group in 2006, the other three girls had success with their worldwide hit "Aserejé", also known as "The Ketchup Song".

The name of the group is a reference to their father Juan Muñoz, a flamenco guitarist known as Tomatito (Small Tomato). This also explains why their debut album carried the title Las hijas del Tomate (Daughters of Tomato).

Las Ketchup was originally discovered by the noted flamenco producer Manuel "Queco" Ruiz, who signed them to his newly formed independent Córdoba-based label Shaketown Music, which he ran together with Manuel Illán. They recorded the songs "Asereje" and "Kusha Las Payas" with Ruiz producing, and shopped the demo to a number of large record companies with the intention of securing a distribution deal. The demo was received by Columbia/Sony A&R Javier Portugués and director Raúl López who, on listening the recordings, stared at each other in delight exclaiming, "Wow, this is fantastic!". At first the intention was to arrange a distribution deal with Shaketown Music but on hearing the song they realised its international potential and so negotiated for Las Ketchup to sign with Sony.

In the summer of 2002 they had a major flamenco Europop fusion hit with "Aserejé" (released as "The Ketchup Song" in the UK and other countries), which reached the top of the charts in many countries including Spain, Portugal, Colombia, UK, Italy, Greece, France, Finland, Turkey, Syria, Sweden, Norway, Belgium, Netherlands, Philippines, Switzerland, Germany, Romania, Argentina, Hungary, Poland, Venezuela, Mexico, Peru, Canada, India, Malaysia, Australia, Egypt and Puerto Rico. However, it failed to hit the Top 40 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The hit also had an accompanying dance.

In 2006 they were joined by Rocío, their fourth sister, to represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006. The girls have said themselves that Rocío has always been a member of Las Ketchup, but she wasn't in the photographs, videos or performances because she was pregnant.

Info source http://en.wikipedia.org

This is one of the easiest conversions from SD to HD I've ever done. The source file was very good and only a small amount of denoising was needed. Sharpening and bringing out the underlying detail is a pleasure to do when you have source files that are good quality. So when I scaled it up to HD resolution using my usual methods it came out looking amazing. Color and lighting was left untouched as it was just fine.

The audio from the source file was another matter. It sucked. It sucked big time. I had to remaster it with a stereo track I had somewhere else. It has been processed through various DSP filters to make it crisp and groovy!

Again this is the best quality upload for this video that you will find anywhere online. Enjoy this video upload of mine and if you get the urge to dance with the girls then go ahead. Nobody is watching so don't feel embarrassed! :-)
