LOS HEREDEROS RADIO: SOUND MAP OF SALSA MUSIC IN NYC PODCAST, PART #2

Hi Everyone! 

Here is the QR code of the second part of the Sound Map of Salsa Music podcast made at LHRadionyc last November 15. I wanted to say thanks to @adrianishungry for the music selection; one of the things that I like most of this lecture is that every time we do it, the music selection is different but came from the same period of time and brings different sounds and messages. Also, many thanks to Mauricio Bayona from @lhradionyc for the invitation, the logistics and the amazing space at the 74th St. and Broadway Subway station. 

You can scam the QR code to listen the second part podcast or you can click in the LHRadio picture to go to its webpage to play the second session, also, you can click in the link below the picture too. 

I Hope you can enjoy this second episode of the Sound Map of Salsa Music in NYC! 

Mapping the Roots of Salsa music in NYC

Salsa Sound Map of New York City #2

Inspired by the deep history of salsa in New York City, Sursystem Magazine created a map highlighting the genre’s origins, evolution, and key landmarks across the city. Originally featured as a centerfold in Sursystem Magazine 08, the map is now coming to life on the airwaves in a three-part live radio series, debuting its first episode today. Hosted by Marcelo Arroyave and Adrian Patiño, the series guides listeners through 23 key points on the map, each representing a neighborhood, venue, character, or landmark that shaped the story of salsa in NYC. At each point, listen to a track that not only contextualizes the discussion, but immerses the audience in the soundscape of salsa’s evolution. In today’s episode, learn more about the project and its creators, and begin the tour through New York City salsa.

SURSYSTEM MAGAZINE 3R WORKSHOP AT THE SECRET DOOR TATTOO STUDIO

Last May first, I was invited by @barriocollectivebk to do the Sursystem 3R workshop at @thesecretdoornyc studio. It was beautiful working with the studio crew; it was such a group of talented people who were focused on the work process and made their own magazine without hesitation or complaint. 

I want to share pictures of the people who participated in it, plus the fanzine Expo we put together to show the participants the fantastic world of independent publishing.

All of them made a piece of artwork for the magazine content; also, the covers and back covers of the Sursystem 3R were made, decorated, and designed by the people who joined the workshop, too.

We were 14 people working 5 hours straight, and nobody left the ship. I hope we will do the workshop again soon.

The participants in the lecture will receive Sursystem Magazine 08, where they can read, listen to music, and follow the tour of the places where salsa was forged on the map. By the end of the lecture, you will have a general idea of how Salsa music emerged and how the Afro-Caribbean immigration added a new musical culture to NYC.
