Our Cinco de Mayo rocked with some of the albums below, yet while you see Keane and Silversun Pickups, they weren't the only artists requested to keep spinning. Nope, S. Carey somehow stole the show, which makes you wonder when you might start to hear requests on the radio. The artist off of Jagjaguwar Records with the half name S. Carey launches his Hoyas EP just in time for people to get to know him. For those than know Bon Iver, he's the drummer of Bon Iver, Sean Carey, and you've known he's talented. [...]

Este jueves 26 de abril se presenta en Fonda Permanente (Loreto 369) y cortesía de la producción, tenemos 3 invitaciones dobles para regalar entre los que nos dejen su nombre y apellido en los [...]
Por Nicolás Miranda Primero una refrescante lluvia de artistas brasileños sobre nuestra capital, luego una desperdigada pero creciente escena de bandas de afrobeat pulula por las calles porteñas, y ahora hasta tornados con lluvia y granizo se llevan puesto todo a su paso. ¿Algo más para confirmar esta sensación de "Buenos Aires, ciudad tropical" ? Sí: cumbia amazónica. La Capital Federal y sus alrededores están llenos de bandas y shows de cumbia: es probablemente el género más escuchado por sus habitantes. La novedad es que [...]
En el marco del Festival Versatil , y a un año de su primera visita al país, la agrupación con base en Brooklyn Chicha Libre se presentará el sábado 21 a las 20.30 en el local de Niceto Vega 5510. Liderada por el francés Olivier Conan , el grupo de espíritu vintage y sesentoso, se nutre de la música andina y mezcla la cumbia amazónica con guitarras eléctricas y sintetizadores. En su segunda presentación en Buenos Aires, Chicha Libre interpretará las canciones de su nuevo álbum [...]
Llega a Chile Oliver Conan, creador de los famosos compilados The roots of chicha , serie de discos que se adentran en la cumbia amazónica más adictiva y movediza, incluyendo a clásicos del género como Los Mirlos, Los Hijos del Sol o Juaneco y su Combo. La llamada cumbia psicodélica de los '70 presente en los compilados es revisitada por el francés junto a su banda Chicha Libre, que interpreta la mayoría de las canciones, logrando una experiencia similar a la del sonido original. En abril Chicha Libre ha programado 3 fechas en Santiago, que [...]

![Dengue Fever / Chicha Libre – split 7″ – Barbes Records [Lucky 7-inch #40 / Daily MP3 #40]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2429141_lg.jpg)
Chicha Libre - "Primavera en la Selva" MP3 Dengue Fever - "Sni Bong" MP3 Wire Magazine reportedly called the Dengue Fever / Chicha Libre split 7-inch one of the best records of 2009; I can't argue. What started as a novelty purchase has turned Gumshoe all gooey inside. I'm swaying and swooning, wondering where this blessed [...]
(Fotografia João Gonçalves)"Sines seria perfeita se o ano tivesse duas semanas: uma de Festival e uma para descansar", lia-se na tabacaria do largo dos Correios (assim o diz a minha amiga Arlinda). Acabou a 11ª edição do FMM e agora há que voltar à normalidade dos dias, à neura da espera. Depois da "manga" por Porto Covo, depois dos dois dias de calma com concertos no Centro de Artes, a festa
WFMU and Barbés Records are joining forces to present two of North America's pre-eminent cumbia bands: Very Be Careful from LA and Chicha Libre from Brooklyn. They'll be joined by DJs representing both old school and digital cumbia. Cumbia became popular in Colombia in the 50s, and its mix of indigenous and African rhythms quickly spread to the rest of the world. In the 70s, Peruvians introduced psychedelic electric guitar and renamed the music Chicha, while Mexican musicians added rock drums and synth to create Sonidero, and Argentineans [...]

I love holidays that change the day of the week year to year. Having the 4th fall on a Friday, creates one huge weekend that starts Thursday and doesn't end until you stop partying on Sunday. Some may head to the beach (like me) and suffer through some crappy cover bands all weekend. Even though Philly is the city where our independence was declared, the pickings for a good show are light, but our nation's capital is happening, and there are a few shows elsewhere. So put down the fireworks and head to a show. Kicking it all [...]

Où l'on aimerait avoir le sens de la formule d'un Manoukian ou d'un Manoeuvre pour introduire ce post par autre chose que 'une reprise est souvent réussie lorsque l'artiste se ré-approprie la chanson et le transpose dans son univers musical'. Et d'administrer quatre oui aux formations qui osent s'attaquer à du lourd et qui s'en sortent pour la plupart avec les honneurs. D'abord deux groupes indie en vogue qui donnent leur version de succès pop du début des années 90, très rock pour les uns, plus synthétique pour les autres. Sons & Daughters "Killer" [...]
