Gustavo Cerati - "Déjà vu"
The world I carry myself around stops whenever he releases a song. Today is the big release of "Déjà vu", the brand new single by legend Gustavo Cerati from his upcoming album Fuerza Natural. Both, the song's title and the album's title are boring as hell, been there done that, but this is Cerati and he even jokes about this in the song. I was never a hardcore fan of Soda Stereo I might confes.

La Manita de Fauna Remixes
The guys from ZZK Records had a remix contest to compile La Manita de Fauna Remixes, the 'chosen few' were determined by their staff, I can only recognize two of the selected DJs: Zurita who a lot of us know from the mixtape he released through the now gone Cabeza! netlabel, the other one is Mexico's DisqueDJ who I've been following closely because of his blog El Disque Blog and his project as ...

Pachangón Ruidosón
This is one of the coolest flyers I've ever seen, and it's for the Pachangon Ruidoson gig Fonograma's favorites Los Macuanos and María y José are hosting tonight (July 18) in Tijuana. This is no ad or anything like that, just an excuse to post this amazing flyer, which I couldn't even post right without messing the blog's template, so I had to cut it in two, looks awesome either way. At this po.

"De Verdad", Juango Davalos

Artist:Juango Davalos
We seem to have a very cool base of followers from the Dominican Republic, mostly living in New York and they’re spreading the word to their friends, we feel the love! One of them, Dr. Lacxos sent me an album by Juango Davalos, who I’ve heard of once from Harold Martinez, but never got to listen to what seems to be one of the most interesting artists from that country. I can tell he’s highly

Gran City Pop, Paulina Rubio
GRAN CITY POP, PAULINA RUBIOUniversal Music Group, MéxicoRating: 40By Carlos Reyes Paulina is everything Thalia isn’t, a pop star. And I know this description will upset many of you, and I’m no closet fan at all but there are things that I find amazing about her, like the way she carries herself around, like a hippy in the fancy pop city she aims to create, a challenge and obstacle f

New MP3: "Arde la Gente", Margarita
If we were to revise our list of the best albums of 2008 there would be dramatic changes, but an album that I still love and placed deservedly high at #12 is Margarita’s Parque Magico, not too many people has heard it but it’s flawless. You’ll be especially thrilled if you’re into the vintage Tropicana from Montañas, Juanita y Los Feos, Joe Volume or even the inspiring and whimsy sound of

Music Alliance Pact July
MEXICO: Club FonogramaHello Seahorse! – Universo 2Hello Seahorse! is the year's most acclaimed Mexican indie band. With their third album, Bestia, the trio have made the transition into a multi-dimensional group with a masterwork under their belt. Bestia shines in between ghosts and hazy sonic beauty, in a universe of its own, and proves Hello Seahorse! have total control over their romanticiz.

Track:Acapulco
We’ve never had so many artists from Chile in one day, but lately our friends, fellow bloggers and followers on Twitter are asking for Valentina Fel like no other new artist this year. It will be interesting to see what plans Lizard King Media has for her, she’s already promoting her album in Chile but the release we’ll be getting in the states is even more promising as the momentum will har

Gepe + Alex Anwandter

Artist:
The news of a project from Gepe and Alex Anwandter (Teleradio Donoso’s vocalist) make us really excited, they’re two of the most talented personas in pop and if you’ve been to one of their shows, or take a look at that picture above, you can already see this is going to be insane. Gepe is by now a well respected singer-songwriter who turns folk into pop in effortless beauty, while I’ve bee

Two Hearts - Apart Under, The Same Sky
TWO HEARTS-APART UNDER,THE SAME SKYIndependiente, ChileRating: 60by: Jean-Stephane Beriot The Same Sky is the emerging project from Joseph Simon, a guy from Chile who at his 15, that doesn’t sound his age at all; his voice might reveal his age but his lyrics and composition strike to mature places, more in the lines of M. Ward and Belle & Sebastian. His artistry isn’t comparable to thos

Video: "Inteligencia Dormida", Pedropiedra
Pedropiedra is along with Valentina Fel the year's most lauded breakthroughs in Chile. You might recognize him if you attended Vive Latino and got to hear Gepe performing, he is the guy that travels with him but if he gets his due, he will have to form a band of his own. The self-titled first album by this singer-songwriter sees the light after a long period of uncertainty, he recorded it in Me...

Video: "Ser Feliz", Nubes en mi Casa
We've never dedicated a post entirely to Nubes en mi Casa, and considering they just released their very first video ever, this is a great excuse to introduce them. They're from Argentina and I never really put much attention to their self titled first album (released in 2008) until I did an extensive search of music to see what would fit into the Voy a Explotar soundtrack, the song "Mareo" pop...

Redbull PanameriKa #46: Voy a Explotar
Thanks to PanameriKa for putting together a show featuring both the original and alternative soundtracks of Voy a Explotar. If I combine the # of downloads between the 4 different hostings the soundtrack has been stored in (Sendspace, Megaupload, Rapidshare & Archive) , it gives me a 30,056 number and that's amazing if you asked me. (Not counting the people downloading it through The Pirate Bay...
