Cuban vocalist Daym茅 Arocena is featured on a new solo album and with the all-female Cuban jazz band Maqueque.

Just another week of new music at Alt.Latino World Headquarters as we dig into Cuban music from Canada, Salvadoran/Mexican music from Los Angeles, Nuyorican protest music and Peruvian women striking a very musical blow against patriarchy.

The flow of new music coming 鈥� digitally via email or old-school snail mail 鈥� starts to pile up and sometimes I need help to sort through it all. So I called in Alt.Latino's New Music Senior Director/Curator Stefanie Fern谩ndez to help me find the good stuff.

We want to use this show as a reminder about the weekly playlist we update on and . It's all in the name of music discovery; we go through it all so you don't have to.

Federal funding for public media is under threat and if it goes, the impact to our communities will be devastating.

Together, we can defend it. It鈥檚 time to protect what matters.
