Tu Música continues with this interview with the music group El Ensamble Latino, which, at the time of the interview, had been together for only four months and managed to combine diverse music styles from the cultures of Argentina, Chile and Venezuela.

On this edition of "Tu Música" (Your Music), Yasmina and José Luis welcome the music group El Ensamble Latino (The Latin Ensemble), which is made up of members of many nationalities. Let's hear about how they came together.

"Si Me Dejan" (If They Leave Me) is a collaboration between Colombian Vallenato sensation, Jorge Celedón, and Vicentico, the former frontman of the Argentinean ska band, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs (The Fabulous Cadillacs).

Argentinean singer/songwriter Vincentico was part of the acclaimed group, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, before becoming a solo artist in 2001. His cover of the poignant song, "Los Caminos de la Vida" [The Roads of Life], was released as a part of his second solo album, "Los Rayos" [The Rays] in 2004 and speaks to the fact that the reality of life is often different from what we expected.

"De Música Ligera" ("Of light music") is a single by the Argentine rock band, Soda Stereo, released in 1990 as part of the group's fifth album, "Canción Animal," and considered a representative rock en español anthem.

Bajofondo is, according to the group, a “collective of composers, singers and artists.” They started out as the Bajofondo Tango Club with a strong tango influence, but have since broadened their sound. Here they talk about the collective and begin a discussion of their sound.

Bajofondo is the fusion of different musicians from the Río de la Plata area, Uruguayans and Argentineans. In 2003, they won the Latin Grammy for “Best Pop Instrumental Album” for their new genre: Electronic Tango. We interviewed Luciano Supervielle and Martín Ferres after a show in Germany about their most recent European tour.

In this video Goy talks about his family, his future as a musician and shares his point of view on piracy. Surely, these guys make music for the sake of music and have a great time sharing their work with the world. So, don’t be shy and take a look at this eclectic, funky and interesting band!

The guys from Karamelo Santo are not only great musicians enjoying success far away from their hometown—they’re also really humble and contribute to new bands' careers in Mendoza. They know how hard the path is, and they’re happy to share their experiences with the very people who recognized them first.

Here’s the second part of the interview with Goy of Karamelo Santo. They are among the leaders of their home country’s independent music scene (Argentina). All their records were self produced—the major labels just weren’t interested in a band which plays free shows for the unemployed and pokes fun at the international monetary fund.

Goy plays guitar and sings for Karamelo Santa, one of the best ska bands in Latin America. Argentina is the band’s homeland (they are practically from the Pampas). But the 7 boys with wild hair and wild songs do not sing around a Gaucho campfire; their sound reverberates in the world’s largest cities.

In part two of the EPK, Bersuit gives background to the remaining songs on Hijos del Culo revealing more of their take on politics and society. Note the way they mix humor and seriousness in their definitions of “psicópata.”

In this Electronic Press Kit (EPK), Bersuit Vergarabat’s members talk about the inspirations for and the process behind many of the songs on their album, Hijos del Culo, while talking a bit about the social commentary that runs strongly throughout their music.

¿Quién es Javier García? With his producer (and two-time Academy Award winner) Gustavo Santaolalla, Javier Garcia talks about his roots and influences. Also, we learn about some noted musicians who contributed to the album 13, including the great trumpet player, Arturo Sandoval.

We’ve all heard of the bolero, which has its modern roots in nineteenth century Santiago de Cuba (even though we might not be able to hum one on cue). But what about the cuartetazo? Born in Córdoba, Argentina, and derived from Spanish and Italian dances, the name is derived from the fact that the earliest players were invariably four-piece bands. The rhythm is similar to merengue.
