Novalima is very aware of the importance of Peruvian folk music, not just in their sound but in another musical genres as well. Paco de Lucía, a Spanish flamenco musician, might have made the sound of the “cajón” (a box-like musical instrument) famous, but that sound is Peruvian as it gets.

Nothing lasts forever. Sadly, sometime in 2001 the fabulous Argentinian band Los Fabulosos Cadillacs announced their final tour. But after a long hiatus, in April of 2008, they announced a comeback! This song comes from the album they released that year. Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, or LFC, is the most famous ska band of Latin America, and an obligatory part of any dance playlist!

Bad dreams awaken us in the middle of the night. Recurrent bad dreams are especially troubling. Luckily, poor Yago has somebody to talk to… even if that somebody doesn’t listen as well as he’d like. Meanwhile, things are getting complicated for a certain mystery woman; juggling men is never easy.

New York has the Hudson; Paris has the Seine; London has the Thames. Rivers were important in the building of these cities: they were commercial routes and also a source of food. Aterciopelados (in English, literally “The Velvety Ones”) the well-known Colombian band, remind us of the importance of our rivers with the title song of their socially conscious album Río.

Novalima mixes Peruvian folk music with electronic beats. Touring has become an important source of inspiration. That’s how they translate their musical roots onto the dance floor. Universal tunes with local sounds!

It’s no time for jokes: Luisa’s family thinks she’s fallen off the wagon and Socorro is pregnant. But should these concerns be taken seriously? Madame Angelica is determined to get to the bottom of the pregnancy question. Not all is bad, however: Milagros seems to have overcome her fears of letting someone in…

Morena gets a little tripped up on the dance floor with Yago, but it’s just because it’s not her best dance. She shows him her other moves… But then someone else moves in. Meanwhile, the puma is still on the loose, and the dirty business of taking care of it gets dirtier.

Sunny Miami is not only a touristic destination. Their beautiful beaches and their elegant buildings are the perfect set for the newest Latin American telenovelas.

Get ready for Residente’s smart mouth and his tongue twister lyrics with a high level of cynicism. This song was co-produced with Gustavo Santaolalla, mastermind of the electronic tango band Bajofondo.

Discovering love is an exciting adventure. First caresses, first kisses, first…? But wasn’t Milagros brought up in a convent by nuns? How will she reconcile her feelings with her upbringing?
