Alt.Latino: The beauty of simplicity

NPR Music

The past month has been a whirlwind. The El Tiny takeover of the Tiny Desk... interviews with some of the most exciting artists in Latin music... and, of course, puppets! So, for today's episode, we emerge from the craziness and dig into our neglected mailbag, which is brimming with new music. What did we find? Simple beauty. A young songwriter from Veracruz whose spare compositions have wowed his elders. An offbeat producer from Madrid. And, a joyful ode to a city half a millennium old. Featured artists and songs: - Arath Herce, "Musas en Mi" and "Quien Pensaría" - iLe, "Si Te Contara" - TRISTAN!, "Voyage" and "Ártico" - Venezonix ft. Pahua, "La Soledad" - Meme de Real, "Estaba Sentado" and "Embeces" - Bomba Estereo ft. Carlos Vives, "La Samaria" This podcast was produced by Noah Caldwell. The executive producer of NPR Music is Suraya Mohamed.
