El Remolon, “La Bonita” MP3
- story Peter Macia
Thanks to the peripatetic Jace Clayton aka Rupture, the world this morning has its hands on not only this beautiful, barely cumbia El Remolon song from the 2008 Mexican film Voy a Explotar (produced by Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal), but every other song from the soundtrack, which includes music from Mexico, Spain and several South American artists. New old music and a new old movie for your new old Wednesday. Watch the trailer for Voy A Explotar (I’m Gonna Explode) after the cut.
La Yegros, “Trocitos” MP3
We’ve been waiting for the La Yegros since we saw her destroy NY Tropical a few months back… and at last, the Trocitos De Madera EP landed in our inbox. Her voice is amazing: somehow she conveys a raw urgency while sounding completely relaxed and conversational. Maybe it’s world-weariness? The lyrics are about a girl who cries out “little pieces of wood” in the jungle, so that could do it. “Trocitos”’s cumbia swang was produced by King Coya, who also co-composed the amazing-looking waterworld dance performance Fuerza Bruta, so obviously this is on another fantastical level, but on the EP it also gets treatments by dj/rupture, Matt Shadetek, El Remolon (he of ZZK blood) and Marcelo Fabian. So anyway, when are we all moving to Buenos Aires?
