Monareta, which banished the cold AC flooding the dance floor and got the head-boppers shaking their tail feathers. Heroes for a night, Monareta enjoyed plenty of high fives after being allowed one of the Conference’s rare encores.

PRESS ALERT: XLR8R Magazine / Fidel Nadal ‘Crucial Cuts’

Fidel Nadal
Crucial Cuts
Nacional — US| Reggae / World | 7/10
Following a split from ska/punk act Todos Tus Muertos, Argentine reggae artist Fidel Nadal has gone on to release more than a dozen albums on the solo tip. On Crucial Cuts, Latin music imprint Nacional gathers some of his more notable work from the past decade to create a 17-song collection rife with relaxed riddims. While blatantly influenced by roots reggae on traditional-leaning tracks such as “Emocionado,” Nadal proves he has traversed the terrain of Latin and Afro-Caribbean music. On “La Puerta Negra,” Nadal taps into reggaeton, banda, and hip-hop for a curious concoction that actually works. For an alternative perspective on reggae, this retrospective is worth a listen.

Bloglandia: Gonalo Yañez
This is a funny one:
Gonzalo Yañez– This Chilean sports lovely blond locks and sings about heartbreak with the best of the Latino pop artists. I even went to his concert (along with 200 screaming 13-year-olds) in hopes of seducing him with my Gringaness, but then truly fell in love with his skinny curly-haired guitarist. As per my usual.
