¿Que Pasa? Tell me something about the marimba instrument and how it contributes to the sound and style of your music.
Wilson:Actually, Caché does not use a Marimba. We use a Vibraphone. They are related but they are two different instruments; The Marimba, unlike the Vibraphone, is made of wood and the Vibraphone is made of Aluminum plates giving the distinct sounds. The Vibraphone gives a unique sound, an identity to Caché.

¿Que Pasa? Which do you enjoy the most: touring live or recording albums, and why?
Wilson: That's a tough one... we enjoy both as they both give different levels of gratification. Touring live, is energetic, fun, you feel the enery of the audience and enjoy seeing them dance to our music... being in the Studio, although it is long hours, it gives us a chance to be with each other and come up with new and exciting ideas... it is like a family reunion where noone can take that away from us.

¿Que Pasa? Give a description of the music on your two Albums "Blended" and "The Toronto Sessions"
