Electro-cumbia-hop, plena-reggae, mambo-ghettotech - just some of the hybrid grooves and genre-bending experimentations on display at the 2009 Latin Alternative Music Conference (LAMC) in New York City, now in its 10th year, that has long been a showcase for cutting edge bands from Bogota to Buenos Aires, and this year is no different. Join the Afropop team with in-depth coverage of the festival, as we sample the sounds of a new generation of cosmopolitan, transnational Latino and Latin American artists. Music and interviews from dreamy Mexican chanteuse Natalia Lafourcade, Colombian scenesters Monareta, Cypress Hill's Eric Bobo, and a visit with the ground breaking Nacional Record's founder and president, Tomas Cookman. Plus, a live concert from Bomba Estereo, the psychodelic afro-danceparty sensation from Colombia. |
