Download this Episode of Beat Latino (MP3)
The ancient Mayas believed that Dec. 21, 2012 marked the end of an era, and we are now in 14 B’aktun, a new creation. This is music that is transformative in many senses – either artists that are finding a solo voice like Sandra Lilia Velasquez (SLV) from Pistolera, or groups that are reborn in the ashes of a previous band (Lenacay from Ojos de Brujo) or music that is transformed by the children of musicians – Raul and Mexia (sons of Hernan Hernández from Los Tigres del Norte) or the music of Latinos transforming a city like Toronto! It’s all music celebrating change and new stages! ¡Viva el nuevo B’aktun!
