El Sonido De Lo Inevitable – by Mañaneros

January 7, 2013 by

mañaneros-1.-300x300

KONN Recordings out of Chile dropped this by me the other day. I was trying to figure out what to label it then I just gave up. Labels are annoying anyway. There are too many genres, sub-genres and sub-sub-genres. The pain of being a music blogger is having to keep up with all of them [...]

Bleepolar Remix Competition Entry – Calentura (ChocQuibTown)

January 2, 2013 by

profile

Writing about underground music comes with many different pleasurable aspects. One of the best is when I come across a young multi-talented prodigy. Bleepolar is such a prodigy, an enigma actually. Not only are his original tracks interesting and lack flaw but also he is a brilliant graphic artist who seems to have mastered proper [...]

Art by Tu Guiana Another year has passed where I haven’t felt like I let anyone down in the nu cumbia world, I even feel positive about my efforts with all other transnational bass genres. Honestly I leave this year feeling pretty positive about how I stayed on top of things and didn’t fail to [...]

To choose my top 10 album releases of 2012 was not easy to do, so I decided on 12, which turned out to be the perfect number. Upon choosing my favorite albums I considered a few important things. These albums are true albums. What I mean by that is that they were produced either before [...]

If you are expecting me to, or worse yet, hoping that I start this post like all the 1,000,000 + other bloggers with a little quip about how we survived the apocalypse, if you are expecting me to say something like that please do me a favor. Get up from wherever your computer is located, [...]

Sexxy Saturday Cumbia – Honestly Honest

December 8, 2012 by

You know, I am honest, like really honest. I can’t lie even if I tried. I’m not honest in the way where I say rude things for no good reason, not that kind of ‘New Yorker’ honest, if I have nothing nice to say then most of the time I’ll just keep my mouth shut. [...]

Last week I was a little dark and was overwhelmed with a feeling of dread for the future. But life managed to reinforce my faith in the natural order of things. Sometimes I just need to sit back and let good things happen. Last week the bloodshed in Israel/Palestine was really concerning me and weighing [...]

Sexxy Saturday Cumbia – Cumbia Massive and Peace On Earth

November 24, 2012 by

I don’t need to preach about love and respect here. I don’t need to preach about how it is morally wrong to take the life, property and liberty of a fellow human being. I don’t need to preach it because I’m convinced everyone who reads this blog agrees that it is immoral to take another [...]

La MiniTK – Muerte y Sabrosura – Dark Cumbia

November 23, 2012 by

The tropics have always been known for uplifting music that we up north eat up. Most of us up here picture Jamaica as an island paradise (which it is naturally) filled with “one love” minded paradiso Rastas, who just kick back and don’t worry all day. It’s a perfect getaway, well at least it is [...]
