Earlier than Ana heads off to see Unhealthy Bunny’s unprecedented residency in Puerto Rico, we chat a little bit about why the celebration is important to the island and Latin music usually.
We additionally dig deep into new releases that embrace 4 completely different approaches to the guitar and a musician from Peru who defies style to create his personal musical language.
Music heard on this episode:
• Gutiérrez Brothers, “Elegantly Wasted (Ft. Leon Bridges)”
• Bebo Dumont, “Hoy”
• Eljuri, “Karma”
• Yamil needs to be an artist & Oliver Berg, “bandit,” “Gatito miau miau miau”
• Yasser Tejeda, “a honey waterfall”
• Yerai Cortés, “sound by way of bulerías,”
• Judeline & Yerai Cortés, “A bridge by way of the bay, La Cruz del Campo”
Audio for this episode of Alt.Latino was edited and combined by Noah Caldwell. NPR Music’s government producer is Suraya Mohamed.
