No mucho antes de eso, trabajaba en la construcci&#243;n en Estados Unidos.</em></p><p><em>Habl&#233; con el joven artista apenas una semana antes de su ya viral salto con maroma fuera del escenario para aventarse al p&#250;blico durante el festival de South by Southwest en Austin, Texas. Pero nuestra conversaci&#243;n ocurri&#243; en un escenario muy distinto: un rancho privado a unos 20 millas del centro de Los &#193;ngeles, en la ciudad de La Puente.</em></p><p><em>En el lugar no hab&#237;a fans gritando ni una gran banda detr&#225;s de &#233;l en el escenario. Aun as&#237;, cargaba esa misma energ&#237;a de estrella global, con lentes oscuros, una gorra negra que dec&#237;a &#8220;Pacas&#8221; en lentejuelas y un grupo cercano acompa&#241;&#225;ndolo.</em></p><p><em>Pero eso cambia en cuanto te saluda.</em></p><p><em>Se quita los lentes, extiende la mano con un apret&#243;n firme y te mira directo a los ojos con un simple: &#8220;Hola, soy Cristian.&#8221;</em></p><p><em>El momento es directo y sencillo, muy parecido a la forma en que Chino se maneja durante todo el d&#237;a. Mientras presenta al resto de su equipo, queda claro que su entorno cercano est&#225; compuesto en gran parte por su familia, incluidos sus hermanos C&#233;sar y Diego Vega. Diego se presenta bajo el nombre de Turo Pacas y tambi&#233;n es artista por derecho propio.</em></p><p><em>A lo largo de la tarde soleada y con brisa, Pacas habl&#243; abiertamente sobre el camino que lo trajo hasta aqu&#237;, el orgullo que siente por su tierra en Guanajuato y la importancia de su familia, especialmente de su madre, a quien recientemente le dedic&#243; un corrido que formar&#225; parte de su esperado pr&#243;ximo &#225;lbum.</em></p><p><em>Aqu&#237; nuestra conversaci&#243;n con Chino Pacas, acompa&#241;ado por su hermano Turo Pacas.</em></p><div><hr></div><p

Yo de hecho nunca he ido, nom&#225;s fui para D&#237;a de Muertos y me impresion&#243; much&#237;simo. Plat&#237;came m&#225;s de Guanajuato. <strong>Chino Pacas:</strong> Guanajuato es un estado bien perr&#243;n. Es un lugar donde te sientes a gusto cuando llegas. Es muy colorido, la gente es muy c&#225;lida, tiene mucho coraz&#243;n y te ayuda en cualquier aspecto. Como en todos lados, hay bueno y hay malo, pero en general Guanajuato es muy hermoso por la cultura, por c&#243;mo se mueve la gente ah&#237;. Siento que es un estado &#250;nico. Todos los estados de M&#233;xico lo son, pero Guanajuato tiene much&#237;simo estilo. A m&#237; me encanta la neta. Soy de ah&#237; y tengo muchas ganas de regresar.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;C&#243;mo entraste a la m&#250;sica por primera vez? &#191;Qu&#233; escuchabas de chico? &#191;Qu&#233; m&#250;sica hab&#237;a en tu casa? <strong>Chino Pacas:</strong> Escuch&#225;bamos mucho por mi hermano mayor. O&#237;amos Cartel de Santa. Con mi mam&#225; sonaban mucho las canciones de Tito Torbellino cuando se pon&#237;a a trapear. Tambi&#233;n El Komander, Gerardo Ortiz, Los Inquietos, Voz de Mando, Valent&#237;n Elizalde&#8230; de todo tipo de grupo, la verdad. <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Tienes alguna canci&#243;n favorita que te recuerde mucho a tu ni&#241;ez? <strong>Chino Pacas:</strong> Tengo varias, la verdad. Son muchas de esas canciones que me regresan a esos tiempos</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg" width="3024" height="3024" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/abcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:3024,&quot;width&quot;:3024,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2643989,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/198926382?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb81c5491-1887-4e5c-ab88-9f599e62f841_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YD4w!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fabcaf1d4-120b-4c6b-921f-7da6978ecf23_3024x3024.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> Los corridos tumbados se han convertido en un cambio cultural enorme. &#191;Qu&#233;

Conriquez, Peso Pluma, Natanael Cano y Gabito Ballesteros. Solo un a&#241;o antes, Net&#243;n escuch&#243; sus composiciones &#8220;Rubic&#243;n&#8221; y &#8220;La People&#8221; viajando por el mundo entero en la voz de La Doble P, lo que culmin&#243; en el lanzamiento de &#8220;La Patrulla&#8221;, y desde ese entonces la vida de Net&#243;n se transform&#243; para siempre. </em>Su m&#250;sica construye fusiones perfectamente balanceadas que permiten un flujo libre de ideas y referencias: &#8220;siempre he tenido mucho cambio&#8230; como escucho mucho rap y hip hop, cuando compongo me salen as&#237; las tonadas&#8221;. Como en el track &#8220;Mi Vida Mi Muerte&#8221; donde la guitarra y el beat se entrelazan en lo que se puede describir como un G-Funk Tumbado. La m&#250;sica de Net&#243;n Vega se encuentra en perfecta resonancia con la ic&#243;nica fotograf&#237;a de Tupac con Chalino S&#225;nchez. Si ese apret&#243;n de manos hubiese resultado en una colaboraci&#243;n, esta sonar&#237;a exactamente igual que la m&#250;sica de Net&#243;n Vega.</p><div><hr></div><p class="button-wrapper"

Nac&#237; en La Paz, Baja California en el 2003. Pero me fui bien chiquillo pa&#8217; Culiac&#225;n. <strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> &#191;Y desde ni&#241;o te gustaba la m&#250;sica? &#191;Cu&#225;les eran tus artistas favoritos? <strong>Net&#243;n Vega:</strong> S&#237;, me gustaba. Mis artistas favoritos en ese entonces eran <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rx_imaqpbgQ">Alfredo Olivas</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0CcSVHQSDU">Gerardo Ortiz</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMNBjH--74w">Chalino S&#225;nchez</a> y <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJhj7KrrPSg">Valent&#237;n Elizalde</a>. Como a los nueve a&#241;os empec&#233; a cantar. Los profes me pon&#237;an a cantar en los festivales de la escuela, porque escuchaban que ya cantaba. <strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> &#191;Y qu&#233; te pon&#237;an a cantar? <strong>Net&#243;n Vega:</strong> Cantaba canciones rancheritas. <strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> &#191;Y tus amigos que dec&#237;an? &#191;Te echaban porras? <strong>Net&#243;n Vega:</strong> S&#237;, siempre. Igual que los profes y todos los dem&#225;s.</p><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> &#191;Qu&#233; g&#233;neros son los que m&#225;s escuchas? <strong>Net&#243;n Vega:</strong> Desde que empec&#233; con el grupo escuch&#225;bamos muchos grupos campiranos, as&#237; como<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJrdAPZXN6I"> Ariel Camacho</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9CPcOp21GA">Hijos de Barr&#243;n</a> o <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btBrUXiAsh0">Miguel y Miguel</a>. Pero siempre he tenido mucho cambio, siempre estaba en constante cambio de m&#250;sica. Es por eso que mi m&#250;sica va cambiando de g&#233;nero. Me sale autom&#225;ticamente, como escucho mucho rap y hip hop, cuando compongo me salen as&#237; las tonadas. <strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> De rap y hip hop, &#191;qu&#233; escuchas? <strong>Net&#243;n Vega:</strong> Siempre he escuchado mucho <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYNBuvybwXY">Cartel de Santa</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtUVQei3nX4">Snoop

The depth of his practice lies in the depth of his emotional capacity, tied with the alignment he has to his environment. Texas, where the calm poetic rhythm hums, Ruben also known as Los Del Limits gives rise to his music. Invoking intention and practice he sits with his work and the layers that come about. If there is one thing about Ruben it is that he is not afraid to feel and therefore not afraid of the fear that comes with feeling itself. The silence in his work holds weight and I feel honored to have been able to have been given a glimpse into his world.</em></p><div><hr></div><p class="button-wrapper"

que hay una influencia en esas dos cosas? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Yo siento que lo que nos influencia es todo, todo en total. Siento la ciudad en donde est&#225;s, la m&#250;sica que escuchas, son muchas cosas, es todo lo que vemos, es todo lo que pasa por nuestra mente. <strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;l es tu parte favorita de ese proceso de encontrar inspiraci&#243;n? &#191;En cu&#225;l momento decides que vas a actuar? &#191;O crees que la inspiraci&#243;n siempre llega de un lugar diferente? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Pues s&#237;, siento que es diferente, porque estoy adaptando nuevas cosas a mi vida personal, de cosas que voy aprendiendo y que voy recibiendo. Si me voy a Los &#193;ngeles siento que puedo tener a lo mejor una mentalidad un poquito diferente porque es una ciudad que se mueve muy r&#225;pido. &#191;Sabes c&#243;mo? Y aqu&#237; en Texas, donde vivo yo, es m&#225;s calmado, es m&#225;s relax, &#191;sabes? <strong>Cynthia: </strong>Yo nunca he ido a Texas, pero mi impresi&#243;n del desierto es que en cierto sentido, hay algo po&#233;tico de que el tiempo se siente muy presente y es correcto, todo en Los &#193;ngeles es muy r&#225;pido. Pero si me podr&#237;as decir &#191;cu&#225;l es tu parte favorita de vivir en Texas? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Yo respeto mucho las culturas de Los &#193;ngeles, siento que son muy diferentes. A m&#237; me gusta mucho la cultura de Texas. Somos diferentes, pero s&#237; es la vibra definitivamente, es muy diferente, y a lo mejor pienso que es porque en Los &#193;ngeles, viven muy r&#225;pido, tienen otro tipo de energ&#237;a, es como la gente de Miami, tiene otra energ&#237;a tambi&#233;n, muy acelerada.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Los &#193;ngeles tiene algo muy r&#225;pido, pero tambi&#233;n hay momentos donde hace mucho calor. &#191;En qu&#233; proyectos est&#225;s trabajando ahorita? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Ahorita estoy trabajando en lo que son singles, me quedan unos cuantos singles m&#225;s y yo creo que para los inicios del pr&#243;ximo a&#241;o es cuando vamos a sacar un &#225;lbum completo.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;l es la diferencia m&#225;s grande que ves en cuanto a lo que has trabajado antes? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>B&#225;sicamente en este &#225;lbum, est&#225;n todos los terrenos de todas las canciones que est&#225;n esparcidas. Es un &#225;lbum en todos los signos completos. Es una historia completa.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Sientes que cuando haces m&#250;sica hay veces que terminas una canci&#243;n y te sientes diferente? &#191;Te sientes de una forma al principio y al final del proceso ya te sientes diferente? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Siento que esto nunca lo he platicado en ninguna parte y lo que acabas de decir, s&#237; es algo que me pasa cuando escribo las canciones. La verdad, cada vez que termino una canci&#243;n, no se lo platico a nadie, pero me siento triste, como que me siento vac&#237;o, no s&#233; c&#243;mo explic&#225;rtelo. Si es un proceso muy muy muy dif&#237;cil, pero supongo que es parte, porque lo que estoy soltando todo lo que siento. <strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Crees que se siente as&#237; porque has sacado lo que has hecho y ya no hay nada m&#225;s? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Es m&#225;s como aprender a dejar ir, dejar ir. Eso es, dejar ir y seguir.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Hay alguna canci&#243;n en el &#225;lbum que est&#225;s haciendo a la que quieras hacerle un video? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>S&#237;, s&#237;, s&#237;. Hay varias canciones que me gustar&#237;a hacerles videos, la neta. Si fuera yo har&#237;a videos para todas las canciones, lo estoy tratando de hacer. Por eso yo estoy tratando de hacer mis propios videos, la idea es que compartan un mundo completo todos.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic" width="1456" height="1941" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1941,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2237605,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/198348649?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!utOn!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb26152fb-f091-4cc6-8e15-6e0b0f738d6c_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;C&#243;mo le haces cuando quieres sentir un sentimiento? &#191;O la inspiraci&#243;n de hacer algo te agarra en cualquier momento? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>La m&#250;sica es lo que a veces me levanto y nom&#225;s me pongo a componer un poco de m&#250;sica, es como que me acelera el d&#237;a pues, como para sentirme bien, me siento con ganas de moverme, con ganas de hacer cosas eso s&#237; siento que la m&#250;sica es todo.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;les son tus artistas favoritos? &#191;O personas que siempre has escuchado? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>La verdad escucho m&#250;sica como jazz ahorita y tambi&#233;n escucho m&#250;sica como electro, electro-pop house, algo as&#237;. Te dir&#233; que no s&#233; los nombres. No s&#233; mucho de los nombres, pero haz de cuenta que nom&#225;s agrego las canciones y nom&#225;s las escucho, nom&#225;s le pongo play.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;D&#243;nde te ves como en 10 a&#241;os? What is your ultimate desire? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Espero que sea en menos de 10 a&#241;os, llegar a tocar en escenarios grandes, creo que ser&#237;a una meta muy grande para m&#237;, volver a esos escenarios. La neta es como una euforia que se siente estar ah&#237; con la gente, es un amor que no se compara con ninguna otra cosa.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;l es tu proceso antes de empezar frente a un p&#250;blico tan grande? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>Es un poquito m&#225;s profesional en cierta forma. Para el p&#250;blico es un show pues, tiene que ser algo que se tiene que recordar. Pero detr&#225;s de todo eso s&#237;, hay un proceso de coordinar mucha gente que haga su trabajo. Y al final se combina pues, pero te digo que es algo m&#225;s profesional, pero tambi&#233;n claro que existe lo sentimental, porque con eso se tienen que sentir las canciones, para poder cantarlas y que t&#250; sientas lo que yo siento. <strong>Cynthia: </strong>Pensando que cada canci&#243;n est&#225; basada en algo que has vivido, &#191;cuando cantas a la gente sientes que est&#225;s viviendo eso otra vez? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>No, siento que lo recuerdo, pero no es como que est&#233; hablando de ese sentimiento como de tristeza. Siento que ya al paso del tiempo, es una herida que ya se san&#243;, como cuando la haces ya no se siente nada como cuando apenas te cortaste y haces la canci&#243;n y te duele. Eso ya no se siente mucho, cuando sanaste la herida.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic" width="1456" height="1941" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/de5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1941,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2581290,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/198348649?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KCUb!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fde5309ad-a10e-4dfa-afad-a203758e9fbf_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;ntos instrumentos sabes tocar? <strong>Los del Limit: </strong>El piano, la guitarra la se tocar tambi&#233;n.

Through genres like banda sinaloense, norte&#241;o, quebradita, and cumbia sonidera, Camacho explores the sounds of Latin America and the Mexican diaspora in Southern California with a deep sense of cultural connection and care. His recent project, El Sonido Es Amistad, centers the relationship between music and diasporic life across Los Angeles and Mexico, asking what sound can hold, preserve, and make possible between

physical record give you that a digital file never could, beyond the obvious fact that you can hold it? I&#8217;m curious about both the tangible and emotional pull. <strong>Sonido Sapo:</strong> I inherited my grandfather&#8217;s collection of Norteno music, they still have his name and address stamped on them, you can&#8217;t get that through a spotify stream. I also have mixtapes he made that are very special to me. I imagine him sitting down and recording each song on an old-school cassette-deck - it must have been a meditative experience (I know it is for me at least). For me, it&#8217;s also about the tangible history of ownership, the provenance. Who owned this record before me? And how many miles did it travel to get to me? I think a lot about how many times it changed hands and the networks that existed to make it logistically possible for music to travel across the continent when a lot of the big distributors in the U.S. wouldn&#8217;t touch this music. These networks really shaped the way people discovered music in Mexico, and why certain styles are popular in different cities.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>When you&#8217;re out digging, how much of what you buy comes from taste&#8212;knowing what you&#8217;re getting&#8212;versus faith in something that is completely new to you? <strong>Sonido Sapo:</strong> When I first got started I left a lot to faith, to very mixed results! I try to find virtue or value in &#8220;bad&#8221; records too, but unfortunately I just don&#8217;t have the physical space to store every record I find. These days I look out for certain labels I know put out a lot of music I like - some labels are known for a very specific &#8220;sound.&#8221; Discos Room from Mexico City and Discos Larga Vida from Monterrey for example, I almost always snag, even if I&#8217;ve never heard the track or the group.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

get a record and it has the previous owner&#8217;s signature, notes, or even little love letters. I have a few records that were gifts from one lover to another, and to me that&#8217;s so sweet - gifting somebody music or a song that makes you feel a certain way. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>In a city like LA, where so much culture gets flattened into memes and content, what does it mean to insist on music as something physical, local, and shared in real space? <strong>Sonido Sapo:</strong> Community and friendship is a big part of what keeps me going as a musician. My motto is &#8220;El Sonido Es Amistad.&#8221; I love using music as a way for people to express joy. Seeing my friends laugh and dance through their hardships is something very special. A lot of the music I collect also serves as a cultural archive -  a written history of a time and place through song. There&#8217;s so many corridos that tell clandestine stories that you&#8217;ll never read about in books, but it&#8217;s all there pressed on a record.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Have you ever picked up a record that felt like the start of a completely new project? <strong>Sonido Sapo:</strong> A while back I was digging in Mexico City with my friend, Jorge Balleza and we found a compilation titled &#8220;Cinco Siglos de Banda en Mexico.&#8221; We had our minds blown when we flipped through the booklet and the pages were full of photos, ethnographic documentation, and field recordings tracing the roots of Banda music in Mexico back to pre-hispanic traditions. I based my next mixtape and zine &#8220;Mambo Animalon&#8221; on this concept. I really wanted to share a lot of the images from the booklet, and recontextualize them with art and writing from my own community here in Los Angeles, where Banda music continues to flourish.</p><div

Where some people might feel really uncomfortable telling their homies how much they love them, they won&#8217;t hesitate to embrace each other and sing along on the dance floor.

What does that inconvenience add to the experience? <strong>Sonido Sapo:</strong> While some may see it as an inconvenience, I&#8217;ve always appreciated the adventures and friendships I&#8217;ve made through digging in Mexico and different cities in the U.S. Traveling to a new city and being led into a dusty, filthy room full of old 45s is a top-tier experience for me. I also think a lot about the pioneers responsible for a lot of the early discovery of new music in Mexico. Gabino Hernandez in Monterrey (Discoteca Popular) and Jose Ortega (aka &#8220;Morelos&#8221;) in CDMX are two legends that played a big role in the proliferation of records from Latin America across Mexico, and eventually the U.S. I&#8217;ve gotten the chance to meet both of them and I&#8217;m very grateful as they have amazing stories of meeting legendary musicians and their travels across the continent.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Sapo:</strong> I know it&#8217;s real when I have community around me to share it with. Whether it&#8217;s playing at a club and everyone is moving to a record that traveled 3,000 miles to serenade them, or digging through bins with a friend and they hand me a record and ask &#8220;have you heard this one yet?&#8221; <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>What does it mean to love music in a way that goes beyond consumption? <strong>Sonido Sapo:</strong> I think about early memories with my family -  being woken up at 7am on a Saturday to my mom blasting Paquita, my dad putting me on to groups like Los Dandy&#8217;s when I was first learning to play the guitar, and riding shotgun in my brother&#8217;s Chevy 1500 while he blasted Chalino out of his busted up sound system. We all have similar experiences with music and I think that&#8217;s what makes it so special, not only as a cultural archive tool, but something that also carries emotional meaning through lived experiences.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

Conriquez, Peso Pluma, Joel de la P y Natanael Cano. Mucho se ha escrito sobre c&#243;mo la ola contempor&#225;nea de m&#250;sica regional y su est&#233;tica arribaron casi accidentalmente a una fusi&#243;n de corridos con trap. So Hood GFX es uno de los arquitectos visuales de esta fusi&#243;n musical y su trabajo es todo lo contrario a accidental. So Hood GFX no es un consumidor de gr&#225;ficos de rap, sino un dise&#241;ador que proviene de un involucramiento est&#233;tico con el movimiento underground de rap en Monterrey a principios de los dosmiles, cuya influencia norte&#241;a es a menudo subestimada en la nueva ola de m&#250;sica regional. Como muchos de sus colegas a principios de los dosmiles, trabaj&#243; con copias piratas de versiones tempranas del software creativo y se ense&#241;&#243; a trav&#233;s del internet los principios del dise&#241;o gr&#225;fico y la producci&#243;n musical previo a la prominencia de los tutoriales de YouTube. Inspirado por los dise&#241;adores Pen &amp; Pixel, comenz&#243; su carrera, a trav&#233;s de Facebook, convirti&#233;ndose en una figura del dise&#241;o para la industria del rap chicano en el sur de California. Frente a la misma pantalla de LCD en M&#233;rida desde donde ha generado algunas de las portadas m&#225;s ic&#243;nicas de los &#250;ltimos 5 a&#241;os, So Hood GFX se sent&#243; con Cynthia Magazine para hablar sobre simbolismos del barrio, el trabajo con clientes y el futuro est&#233;tico de los &#225;lbumes que pacientemente esperamos que nuestros artistas favoritos estrenen.</p><div><hr></div><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe

Encontraste algo que funciona muy bien y me imagino que es la raz&#243;n por la que te buscan. Entonces, &#191;t&#250; por qu&#233; crees que sea la raz&#243;n por la que te busquen? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> M&#225;s que nada yo creo que lo que ayud&#243; ahorita es el crossover que hubo en el regional mexicano. Eso me ayud&#243; bastante para empezar. Si te das cuenta, el nombre es So Hood graphics. Todo est&#225; enfocado al rollo del rap chicano y al rap de los morenos en Estados Unidos. Ese era mi mercado principal. En este &#225;mbito conoc&#237; a un amigo, un productor que se llama <a href="https://genius.com/artists/Cricket-productionz">Cricket</a> que fue pionero en la fusi&#243;n entre la banda y el rap.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Y de d&#243;nde eres? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Soy de M&#233;rida de Yucat&#225;n. <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Y estudiaste dise&#241;o gr&#225;fico o c&#243;mo empezaste con esto? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> No estudi&#233; dise&#241;o gr&#225;fico. Yo creo que as&#237; como los m&#250;sicos que aprenden de o&#237;do, habemos algunos que aprendemos de de ojo, por decirlo de alguna manera. <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Qu&#233; a&#241;o fue tu primer dise&#241;o? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> La primera venta que hice como dise&#241;ador fue en el 2012, para un rapero de San Diego. <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Y viviste all&#225; o c&#243;mo encontraste a este cliente en San Diego? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> F&#237;jate que lo encontr&#233; en Facebook antes de que existiera marketplace, pod&#237;as dar mucha distribuci&#243;n a tus publicaciones. Yo sub&#237;a mi material y todo el show, y lleg&#243; a varios raperos en Estados Unidos. Entonces hab&#237;a bastante mercado en ese entonces. Y empec&#233; a tener una entrada adicional en mi cartera.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg" width="3024" height="3024" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:3024,&quot;width&quot;:3024,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2131397,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/196568160?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F84f2692c-edfc-48c5-bbbf-e819fed8c561_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Sv3q!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F6dee9f08-4ca1-4185-b235-07b26fa0b049_3024x3024.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Cu&#225;l crees que sea la raz&#243;n por la que el regional mexicano empez&#243; a adoptar est&#233;ticas de rap callejero? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Es una buena pregunta. F&#237;jate que yo empec&#233; haciendo m&#250;sica y por eso me fui para Monterrey haciendo rap. Culturalmente tenemos arraigados los sonidos de M&#233;xico, pero un crossover tan marcado s&#237; se vio en <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t382SZIJSWI">AKWID</a> pero haz de cuenta que lo de AKWID fue a la inversa de lo que est&#225; pasando ahorita, los cholos adoptaron el los sonidos mexicanos. Ahorita los cantantes de regional mexicano adoptaron la vestimenta urbana de los cholos. Hace un par de a&#241;os dije que el nuevo gangster rap eran los corridos por la similitud en las letras de las canciones. Las letras hablan de lo que se est&#225; viviendo en las calles. Los tumbados en un principio hablaban de eso: de una realidad que viv&#237;an en las calles, las aspiraciones de j&#243;venes que quer&#237;an andar encollados y traer dinero. Entonces esa es la s&#237;ntesis entre el rap y los corridos modernos.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Cu&#225;les son las iconograf&#237;as m&#225;s espec&#237;ficas del lado regional mexicano? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Yo creo que b&#225;sicamente es lo mismo porque yo he hecho portadas para raperos morenos que incorporan los mismos elementos. Ya sean Bentleys, armas o mujeres. La tem&#225;tica es la misma solo que con ritmos mexicanos. Instrumentos de aire, el tololoche que est&#225; ahorita rompiendo. Yo creo que la iconograf&#237;a est&#225; demasiado fusionada. Es muy complicado decirte exactamente alg&#250;n elemento que identifique. Yo creo que quiz&#225;s podr&#237;amos hablar de los santos, de la virgen o cosas as&#237; que que normalmente no los encuentras en el mercado del rap.</p><div

en Los &#193;ngeles. Porque en los grupos de regional es un poquito m&#225;s com&#250;n tener un grupo de cinco miembros y antes antes en los noventa tambi&#233;n NWA fue un grupo de rap como de cinco integrantes, pero en este momento es m&#225;s com&#250;n que los raperos sean solistas, como Kendrick o Travis. Ya casi no hay grupos de rap y pienso que hay algo movi&#233;ndose en ese sentido en la m&#250;sica regional mexicana tambi&#233;n. <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> En los noventas eran como crews, osea que eran como colectivos de rap. Est&#225;n tambi&#233;n los Wu Tang Clan. Y f&#237;jate quiz&#225;s anteriormente en la m&#250;sica mexicana siempre han habido muchos integrantes haciendo m&#250;sica porque son muchos instrumentos tocados en vivo, pero yo creo que antes no se le daba tanto &#233;nfasis a los que tocan los instrumentos. Por ejemplo ahorita con los m&#250;sicos de Peso Pluma, gracias a las redes sociales, todos saben quien es La Parka o Ezequiel. Entonces ya tienen tambi&#233;n m&#225;s spotlight los m&#250;sicos y eso est&#225; chido.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Y usas IA? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> F&#237;jate que yo estaba renuente a usar la IA porque a lo que m&#225;s me dedico yo es a hacer conceptos o escenas. El retoque es lo que m&#225;s me gusta a m&#237;. Entonces pues obviamente hacer una composici&#243;n m&#237;a hecha de mi mano, me da m&#225;s satisfacci&#243;n que ver algo producido por una inteligencia artificial. Sin embargo, &#250;ltimamente he estado usando un poco de IA, pero para crear elementos que, por ejemplo, me puedo pasar un d&#237;a entero buscando y a veces no encuentro. Con la IA lo creo y lo uso dentro de mis composiciones r&#225;pidamente. <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> Notamos que a veces tu est&#233;tica es similar a los p&#243;sters de las pel&#237;culas, &#191;eso es algo en lo que piensas? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Cuando tengo muchos elementos, o hay un visual de por medio antes de hacer la portada, como un video o algo que me marque la pauta de d&#243;nde ir, yo empiezo a hacer la lluvia de ideas con los elementos del video que empiezo a recapitular y empezar a armar mis composiciones. Muchas veces, b&#225;sicamente entrevisto a los artistas sobre qu&#233; direcci&#243;n quieren tomar para empezar. Porque a veces yo propongo hacer ese estilo de p&#243;ster de pel&#237;cula, pero se van por algo m&#225;s sencillo. Por ejemplo, Luis R. ahorita trae la tendencia de utilizar fotograf&#237;as en lugar de hacer composiciones m&#225;s elaboradas como las que hab&#237;amos estado trabajando. Entonces yo me voy adaptando a los artistas, Joel de la P por ejemplo, a &#233;l s&#237; le gustan las composiciones cargadas. Me voy adaptando a los artistas m&#225;s que nada, les hago un tipo de entrevista para poder saber m&#225;s qu&#233; direcci&#243;n tomar con el dise&#241;o.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Qu&#233; cosas les preguntas? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Para empezar, cuando no tengo la canci&#243;n ni he visto alg&#250;n visual. Les pregunto de qu&#233; trata la canci&#243;n, si va a ser un reggaet&#243;n, un dembow o un corrido, porque ahorita ya los artistas est&#225;n sacando de todo, la mezcla cultural que hay ya es bastante. Ya no sabes si la canci&#243;n tiene nombre de corrido pero a lo mejor va a ser un dembow. Hay que saber si vamos a usar colores m&#225;s llamativos como morados, verdes, m&#225;s exoticones en el caso de los dembows o si nos vamos a ir por algo m&#225;s elegante en caso de que sea un corrido. Si me dejan a m&#237; la libertad creativa pido que me manden aunque sea un extracto de la m&#250;sica para yo en base a la letra sacar ideas.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

creo que tambi&#233;n aqu&#237; en el dise&#241;o de portadas hay un poco de eso, justo cosas que no se dicen expl&#237;citamente, sino que el que entiende entiende. Se me hace interesante que haya varios niveles de lectura en las portadas y creo que eso tambi&#233;n ayuda mucho al sentido de pertenencia que genera este g&#233;nero musical. <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Claro, incluso hay cosas que te piden sin que t&#250; sepas el significado. Simplemente te lo piden.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;Cuando haces algo creas una sola direcci&#243;n creativa o varias? &#191;Y qu&#233; pasa cuando el artista dice que no le gusta? <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> La neta me prevengo. Por eso primero hago el cuestionario. Y pues ya con el precio s&#237; amortiguo los cambios. Mando primero un sample, un preview para que lo chequen con un mockup este antes del final, revisan si todo va bien, la afinamos y se hacen los cambios necesarios. No tengo restricciones, ahora s&#237; que al cliente lo que pida. Porque al final de cuentas, tambi&#233;n eso garantiza el retorno de ellos.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> &#191;A ti te gusta el sci-fi? Siento que tus dise&#241;os tienen muchos elementos de la ciencia ficci&#243;n. <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Claro, &#161;s&#237;! Me gusta el sci-fi y tambi&#233;n algo que me gusta mucho y casi no me lo piden es hacer iluminaciones como de pel&#237;cula de terror. Hay una disquera que se llama Evil Enterprise que siempre me piden ese tipo de cosas. La neta lo disfruto porque me gusta meterle ah&#237; un poquito de horror a los dise&#241;os. Cosa que no me permiten hacer los clientes del urbano ni del regional porque no va, choca con las tendencias, excepto que sea Halloween. <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> S&#237;, creo que hay algo muy noventero en tus dise&#241;os, me recuerda a unos dise&#241;adores&#8230; <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> &#191;Pen &amp; Pixel? <strong>La Cynthia:</strong> Justamente&#8230; <strong>So Hood GFX:</strong> Ellos eran dos rubios que estaban involucrados en las portadas de Master P, de Snoop Dogg, de No Limit, las de Cash Money donde estaba Lil Wayne. Como que agrandaban las manos de los artistas, usaban dados, tambi&#233;n aparec&#237;an muchos dobermans y las letras en 3D. Las letras que yo uso muchas son casi como en 3D y doradas, inspiradas en las composiciones que ellos hac&#237;an. La neta yo considero que ellos estaban muy adelantados a su &#233;poca porque en ese entonces el Photoshop creo que no exist&#237;a.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

a la gente que anda en la loquera. <strong>La G&#252;era Cirujana: </strong>Pues yo les dir&#237;a que salieran de esa rutina porque no es nada bueno y hacen sufrir mucho a sus padres. Y aparte a sus hermanos, porque tanto sufre la madre, que es la principal, los hermanos tambi&#233;n van, porque hay muchos hermanos que se portan bien y est&#225;n con la madre y sufren junto con la madre, porque la madre es la que sufre todo el tiempo. Y pues yo les dir&#237;a que a esos que se andan drogando, pues que agarren un camino mejor, as&#237; como yo lo agarr&#233;. Y as&#237; es. Tengo un libro muy grande que contar, pero est&#225; re grand&#237;simo mi libro. Nom&#225;s es un pedazo de mi vida, es un pedacito nom&#225;s les voy a decir de mi vida.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> Todos los negocios de aqu&#237; alrededor, casi todos, son manejados por hombres y usted tiene un negocio, &#191;c&#243;mo se siente? <strong>La G&#252;era Cirujana: </strong>Yo me siento muy orgullosa de m&#237;, chico. Yo, gracias a Dios, estoy muy orgullosa de mi persona por todo lo que he hecho y por todo lo que he sufrido y porque he salido adelante sola. S&#237; he tenido el apoyo, s&#237; tuve el apoyo de mis padres, de mis hermanos, de mis hijos, pero gracias a Dios no me rogaron mucho, no sufrieron mucho para yo salir avante en eso que yo anduve. Yo sola.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> Igual, as&#237; como otro mensaje a las mujeres. <strong>La G&#252;era Cirujana: </strong>Pues habemos muchas mujeres muy luchonas. Pero las que no se animan, pues que son unas tontas, que no se anden dejando del hombre, que salgan adelante por ellas solas. Bendito Dios. As&#237; nom&#225;s. S&#237;.

Lleva la <em>chocolata</em>, que est&#225; garantizada por tres meses, si no le funciona aqu&#237; a los caballeros, le regresamos su moneda, su billete. Ya si el poste no sirve, no es mi bronca. Tambi&#233;n lleva el <em>callo de San Andr&#233;s</em>, donde se acuestan dos y amanecen tres, y son de aqu&#237; del Mar de Cort&#233;s. Tambi&#233;n lleva la <em>almejita reina</em> para la reina. Tambi&#233;n vendemos el <em>osti&#243;n</em> para que le diga a su chica que es un campe&#243;n en la cama y en el colch&#243;n. Y tambi&#233;n vendemos la <em>patita de mula</em> para las mujeres mulas, la almeja <em>pierna de mujer</em>, y hay una almeja que yo le puse <em>panocha peluda</em>, que es peludita por fuera y saladita por dentro.

My mom and my dad moved to Bakersfield in 92 or 93. I grew up in Bakersfield. I stayed there until I was 23. And then I moved to LA, where I lived in Boyle Heights. I moved to Chino just a couple years ago after I started a family. My suegras live here in Chino.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>When do you remember first seeing things that feed into your visual practice? <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> When we were in Bakerfield, we were selling things in the swap meet. My mom would always drive us to Tijuana. My mom was born in Tijuana and lived there until she was 15. We would go to Tijuana, buy stuff. We&#180;d buy whatever she found interesting in Tijuana, we&#8217;d bring it back and sell it in Bakersfield at the Kern County Swamp Meet. We&#8217;d also sell oranges. We&#8217;d drive up to Visalia and buy a pallet of oranges, and just bag &#8216;em up and we&#8217;d sell &#8216;em too. From doing all this growing up I saw a lot of real artist or artisan type people making [and selling] paintings, weird sculptures and piggy banks. I think that really was my first experience with &#168;the creative&#168;. Of making something from scratch. These fools were like making it all from scratch and then selling it. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>That makes sense. Growing up as a kid in the US  everything can be hyper commercial, but through these networks between California swap meets and Tijuana you saw a different more creative way. <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> Yeah, definitely. And then when I went to university, I took an art class , and then that&#8217;s where I learned about another sense of art. Painting, ideas, philosophy and reading books. It just kind of opened my mind. It is an acid trip&#8212;just like, whoa, people out here doing performance art and <em>what is that</em>? And then just trying to relate it back to my life. Trying to just smash it all together.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:null,&quot;width&quot;:null,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:3803353,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/195899757?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gBVu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F15fb54a3-b9a6-41db-8ba3-fc008dc64328_7000x7900.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>In your work there are these abstracted motifs that Mexican-Americans should all be familiar with. How does the tejana work in your paintings for instance? <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> Yeah, I think the hat is this thing that you use to actually stop the sun. And so it&#8217;s like this philosophy of form follows function. I feel like painting can be so abstract. &#168;What do you paint?&#168; I think that&#8217;s why people do it, because it&#8217;s some sort of resemblance of consciousness. So I think painting a hat was just kind of this form that I found beautiful in contrast with what could be a nature background or some other scene. For me it&#8217;s about just painting that and then letting it just sit and be there for people to ponder, because it&#8217;s a painting <em>first</em>. The hat is just using something that I <em>looked</em> at, I&#8217;ve <em>seen</em> before, that I&#8217;ve <em>drawn</em> before. Using that as an anchor in my practice so that way I have reference to dive deeper into what it is to be human, what it is to paint and to have consciousness. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>There a lot of familiar landscapes&#8230; <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> Yeah, it&#8217;s definitely California style. You got the valleys, you got the mountain peaks, you got the ocean views. And I feel like the people who make this all up, we become part of it. And I think thats the fun part of using an anchor like the tejana. It&#180;s like ok, where is that in the landscape? Putting those two things next to each other or inside of each other, inside of a painting. It creates a point of history to the California upbringing, to what it feels like, to what it looks like.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Growing up Mexican-American in California I can think of all these distinct cultural moments. I can think of what a Mexican looked like in Southern California in the 1980s or then in the 1990s, and a lot of that expression had to do with the type of music Cynthia Magazine is centered on. Regional and corridos. When you see kids walking around Chino and you know that they bump this type of music. What do you think is unique to their current aesthetic expression? <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga: </strong>I think now in popular culture there is a sense of pride in this type of music. And I love to see that. The music is getting the respect it deserves, these guys are writing super amazing music, from the story itself to the way its presented, and its like a real band. I always tell people, with this kind of music, they can play it for you right there. There&#8217;s nothing else they need. A guitar, a dude singing, maybe someone on bass or backup guitar. This type of music taps kids into not being <em>so tech</em>. It gives something tto the light of painting, it&#8217;s still kind of classic. You can do it anywhere. You don&#8217;t need to be plugged into something to play that music or to hear it. Back to your question, seeing the kids in Chino just kind of bumped that music, I think it&#8217;s really cool, when you say &#168;California, Mexican&#168;, its like what is that? As people, we&#8217;re all trying to figure it out. It looks like a lot of things, but I feel like yeah, this regional music is creating an anchor. It&#8217;s holding it down for a lot of people. In Bakersfield, this music comes on after a house party, people are playing this music in the backyard and vibing out. It wasn&#8217;t popular or anything. I feel like I&#8217;ve always kind of looked up to that, I don&#8217;t know. I&#8217;m enjoying what&#8217;s happening right now, I&#8217;ve always tried to bring that into my painting. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s cool to be from Bakersfield, but I feel like Bakersfield is represented by this music in a way that has given Bakersfield some respect. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Yeah I feel that. For me there&#180;s something in this music that represents where I grew up in Riverside, which was never cool, a way to escape the shadow of LA. <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> To people in Bakersfield, the Central Valley is just Central Valley. They don&#8217;t want to go to LA, they&#8217;re happy to be in Bakersfield. When I was growing up, I feel like that was definitely a vibe. Bakersville was proud, and I&#8217;m proud too have grown up there and be a part of the Central Valley. And I love LA and I love the IE too. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>This music comes from so many different places, but some places it doesnt really come out of, are like the urban cores, its not pouring out of LA, SF, CDMX or NYC in the way it pours out of the Central Valley, the IE, Phoenix, the cities and their peripheral pueblos or ranchos in Northern Mexico.</p><div

They&#180;ve got a lot of artists I listen to heavy. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Totally. <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> Like Codiciado. Grupo Firme. They really did a lot and I still listen to them. <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> Where&#8217;s Natanel Cano from? <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>He&#8217;s from Hermosillo. But he lived in Phoenix for a time. <strong>Ken Taylor Reynaga:</strong> You know how Norte&#241;o is what they call it. It&#8217;s like this northern part of Mexico for them, but for us it&#8217;s like the southwest vibe. I think what it is too, is in these place, you have time to actually practice and learn how to play the guitar. The guitar gave it the sound. Arial Camacho just kinda put it on the fucking map for everybody. Like &#168;Te Metiste&#168;, <em>You fell through me, like water through my hands.</em> It&#8217;s like, God damn, he just writes that shit beautifully.I think it&#8217;s cool, these smaller towns or places where there&#8217;s not as many people, they have this sound that represents that. And you realize it&#8217;s actually a lot more people who are from a small town than you think. We like to think &#168;oh I&#180;m from a small town&#168; but then everyone is from a small town, and they can all relate to each other. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>There are more small towns than big cities. You could probably name all the big cities on the 10 fingers in your hand or something, but there&#8217;s so many more small towns and it feels like a really special moment we&#8217;re living in.</p>

Cuando pasa algo malo digo &#8220;trakas&#8221;, cuando pasa algo bueno digo &#8220;trakas&#8221; y cuando pasa algo absurdo, tambi&#233;n digo &#8220;trakas&#8221;. Y es que Luis R. Conriquez, quien populariz&#243; este t&#233;rmino, lo ha utilizado en una multiplicidad de g&#233;neros brind&#225;ndole una gran variedad de significados. Veo estampas en microbuses, estampados en playeras y m&#225;s ic&#243;nicamente, en toallas y frazadas donde TRAKAS HDSPM se imprime a lado de la cara de Luis R. Conriquez. No cabe duda de la influencia que Luis est&#225; teniendo en la cultura regional mexicana, o de acuerdo a lo que &#233;l nos comparti&#243;, la cultura internacional mexicana. &#191;Pero qui&#233;n es este cantante nacido en Caborca, Sonora? El espectro y la leyenda ocultan a una persona sensible, que como todos sabemos se super&#243; desde ser despachador de gasolina hasta volverse el n&#250;mero uno. Nos encontramos con Luis en la Librer&#237;a Redil de Ovejas en Guadalajara, &#191;qu&#233; mejor lugar para platicar con alguien que muy probablemente inscribir&#225; una palabra en la Real Academia Espa&#241;ola? Trakas.

Es una evoluci&#243;n muy buena para la m&#250;sica, para todos los mexicanos independientemente. Para todos los g&#233;neros de la m&#250;sica ya es un voltear a ver a M&#233;xico. Todos los artistas de diferentes lados en diferentes pa&#237;ses. Es m&#225;s mundial, est&#225; m&#225;s vers&#225;til todo. Yo creo que somos parte de la historia de M&#233;xico, pero con un nuevo cambio.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Y t&#250; c&#243;mo te sientes? Por ejemplo, supongo que has dado conciertos en Europa&#8230; <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>He hecho en Colombia, M&#233;xico y Estados Unidos. Todav&#237;a no he ido a Europa, pero pr&#243;ximamente, primeramente Dios. S&#237; quiero ir a Europa. S&#237; me han pedido mucho, f&#237;jate en Espa&#241;a. Hasta en Italia me han dicho as&#237; de que ven para ac&#225;, yo creo hay muchos mexicanos en todos lados. Hace poco estaba viendo una gira de Carin Le&#243;n y en todos los lugares que fue hay mexicanos, o hay gente de descendencias mexicanas entonces para la m&#250;sica mexicana ya no hay niveles pues o sea, ya podemos llegar a donde nosotros queramos. <strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Y t&#250; sientes que dando un concierto en Colombia o en Estados Unidos, donde sea, el mexicano y la m&#250;sica mexicana es aceptada como cualquier otro? <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>Claro, es algo de nosotros, muy de nosotros, y es llevar las ra&#237;ces de M&#233;xico hacia donde est&#225; la gente mexicana, que por ciertas razones se va a otros pa&#237;ses, &#191;no?

sientes que tu mensaje ya es m&#225;s universal o sea que trascendiste la parte nacional que solo al mexicano le suena claro? <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>Siento que s&#237;, claro, ya tenemos m&#225;s de cinco a&#241;os en el medio y la gente pues nos voltea a ver de buena manera y ya saben cuando escuchan a Luis R ya saben de lo que habla el mensaje y todo lo que est&#225; detr&#225;s.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>Claro. Oye, yo quer&#237;a tocar tantito el tema de d&#243;nde saliste, o sea, creo que es muy importante el tema de Caborca porque hay una parte donde cualquier persona que viene del interior de la rep&#250;blica, siente que la cultura est&#225; en la Ciudad de M&#233;xico. Y luego el resto de personas no nos sentimos parte. Y en este momento como que se est&#225; volcando hacia all&#225;. No s&#233; c&#243;mo t&#250; sentiste esa parte&#8230; <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>: Casi todos los sonorenses, somos varios sonorenses que estamos en el medio, y que de alguna manera la estamos rompiendo, &#191;no? Sonora es muy diferente a todos los lugares, es diferente en ambientes, en tipo de m&#250;sica, o sea la m&#250;sica m&#225;s de Sonora casi son m&#225;s cumbias es m&#225;s diferente. La gente pues con todo se ambienta, &#191;no? Y en otros lugares s&#237; aceptan m&#225;s nuestro g&#233;nero por decir, aqu&#237; en Guadalajara ni se diga, desde que empec&#233; a venir la gente acepta muy bien nuestra m&#250;sica, igual en Monterrey. O sea pero al fin del d&#237;a todos somos mexicanos y yo creo que ya estamos adaptando toda la m&#250;sica nueva, &#191;no? Ya el lugar al que vayas ya se saben m&#225;s de la m&#250;sica y saben lo que canta uno. <strong>Cynthia  </strong>&#191;Cuando estabas morrillo all&#225; entonces era m&#225;s de cumbia no era tanto el tema de banda norte&#241;a? <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>La chamacada, la morrada, s&#237; somos de corridos y todo pero s&#237; nos gusta el ambiente, pues ese tipo de ambiente que nos han inculcado all&#225; en los a&#241;os.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>Yo soy muy de corrido y siempre mi jefe nos ense&#241;&#243; esa parte, pero como que la parte de los corridos viejitos as&#237; muy norte&#241;o muy de banda, como peda de jefe que est&#225; sentado en el equipal y ac&#225; chupando pues&#8230; <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>En su oficina o otro rollo pues es otro trip&#8230; <strong>Cynthia: </strong>Y lo que ustedes trajeron fue como activar a la banda&#8230;<strong> Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>Activarla, ya donde sea pues ya hasta en un antro cabe la m&#250;sica de eso, claro. O sea antes miraban a uno como todo un ranchero a todos los mexicanos miraban como &#8220;ah el mexicano, el macho, el de sombrero y de bigote&#8221; y la verdad va cambiando todo,  o sea lo hemos ido cambiando, se nota todav&#237;a el poder, el poder&#237;o mexicano, pero es diferente.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

principio compon&#237;a y hasta la fecha pues de repente me meto en una que otra rola pero ya no es mi necesidad. <strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;C&#243;mo empezaste t&#250; as&#237; con esa inercia? <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>:<strong> </strong>&#191;Sabes qu&#233;? Pues yo me quise superar y quise ser cantante y yo hice toda mi m&#250;sica as&#237;, sea las escritas, la producci&#243;n, todo. O sea al principio s&#237; empec&#233; yo a hacer todo y ya poco a poco entre m&#225;s trabajo tienes pues te vas alejando de ciertas cosas, &#191;no? Quieres m&#225;s comodidad en tu vida. <strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;T&#250; sientes la pasi&#243;n que te llev&#243; hacia la m&#250;sica fueron las letras, fueron los acordes? <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>: Fue m&#225;s que nada la necesidad, la necesidad y el gusto por la m&#250;sica de toda la vida y ya poco a poco uno que puede vivir de ah&#237;, puede comer de ah&#237; y puede llegar a ser alguien en la m&#250;sica. Yo empec&#233; de nada, de cero. O sea un artista nuevo que vino a meter un g&#233;nero, pues en ese entonces era un g&#233;nero nuevo, ya aportamos algo para el regional mexicano y me siento muy contento por eso.</p><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>Tocaste unas palabras que me gustar&#237;a revisitar &#8211;Regional Mexicano&#8211;, porque no s&#233;, hasta donde me acuerdo cuando no nos pelaban los gringos, el Regional Mexicano no exist&#237;a y empez&#243; a haber una mirada desde fuera y ahora es el regional mexicano, pero antes era Sierre&#241;o Norte&#241;o, Banda, Cumbia, &#191;no? Pero era mucho m&#225;s amplio y ahorita nos englobaron y encasillaron en Regional Mexicano. &#191;T&#250; c&#243;mo te sientes como de esa mirada desde el exterior? <strong>Luis R Conriquez</strong>: Pues todo lo que confronta Norte&#241;o, Sierre&#241;o, Ranchero, Mariachi, todo eso es Regional Mexicano, todo abarca un solo t&#233;rmino, el de Regional Mexicano. La m&#250;sica nueva tiene m&#225;s que ver con lo urbano, pero es mexicano tambi&#233;n.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic" width="1456" height="1456" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1456,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1859472,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/195775964?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!muzU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4be2eb9-036a-4274-9b5f-2d3dc9156fbe_2600x2600.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Cynthia: </strong>&#191;T&#250; te consideras rapero? </p>

Their electric guitar&#8211;laced corridos have had Cynthia&#8217;s editorial team hooked ever since we first heard their breakout single &#8220;Hennessy.&#8221; We got lucky and caught up with them in Austin the day before their set at SXSW, where they were part of the Need Pastel x Agushto Papa Showcase, and managed to snap some photos. A few days later, Cynthia&#8217;s co-founder, Javier Ram&#237;rez, jumped on a call with the members of L&#237;nea Personal to dig into their journey, musical influences, and what&#8217;s coming

How did the band form? <strong>Jorge: </strong>So originally, all four of us are from Northern Cali, Stockton and Turlock. And pretty much I gathered Tavo and Edgar first, and we started the group right there, all of us three. We just started like any other group playing quincea&#241;eras and stuff. We went a year like that and then we wanted to make some music for platforms and stuff, and focus more on the artist side. That&#8217;s when we started uploading music, around July of 2022, and then from there we just kept on making more music.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> What were you guys doing before you were full on making music? You guys have family members that are musicians? <strong>Tavo:</strong> Linea Personal is my very first group that I&#8217;ve ever joined. So it&#8217;s a new experience for me, but anything before Linea Personal, I&#8217;ve been singing since I was about seven-eight years old, and I have family members who sing as well. I just grew up singing. And then Jorge hit me up for joining Linea Personal.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic" width="1456" height="1820" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1820,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1415069,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/195691882?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!fyVc!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F5422db40-5f3e-4d2f-8dde-808135f3f295_3120x3900.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> What led you to writing corridos over any other music? <strong>Jorge: </strong>I think it was the culture that really bled into us since. Our parents grew up with Mexican music, and obviously we grew up with Mexican music. And I think also the fact that all you need is a guitar, right? It was pretty easy for us in that way. </p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> So you guys were playing little shows, like, local shows and stuff? <strong>Jorge: </strong>Yeah, sometimes not even shows, sometimes it was just parties, you know, family stuff.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> Was there a moment that made you guys realize like, &#8216;Yo, this is happening&#8217;? <strong>Jorge: </strong>It was the first time that we ever went with Fuerza Regida, they invited us over to the show, and saw how many people were there, you know, like, all the clapping and the cheers and stuff. It kind of just opened our eyes.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Growing up did you guys listen to Regional with your parents? Is there a specific artist that stuck out to you? <strong>Tavo:</strong> Yeah, we grew up listening to Vicente Fernandez, Pedro Infante, Chalino S&#225;nchez, you know? All of those legends.

thoughtfully designed the album is. Especially how there&#8217;s this transition starting from the interlude, where you kind of switch it up. Can you guys tell me a little bit about that process? How did you guys decide that? Because there&#8217;s an obvious change in the music style during the interlude and after that. <strong>Jorge: </strong>I think we had the songs &#8220;Henessy&#8221; and &#8220;El Guero&#8221;, and they both kind of blew up around the same time. So we kind of wanted to get a mixture of both formulas and make it to an album. To have that corrido side, the happy side, and then have that more moody, more dark side.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia:</strong> In songs like &#8220;Hennessy&#8221; and even in the interlude, I noticed that there is this electric guitar, almost like a blues/rock kind of style that I hadn&#8217;t heard in any other grupo. It&#8217;s like almost you got the vibrato, like the hammer ons going on. And I noticed that in the new EP, you guys have heavily leaned into that some more. What&#8217;s the source of inspiration for that? Is there something you guys are referencing or listening to? <strong>Jorge: </strong>Yeah, definitely after Hennessy and seeing how people reacted to that. We tried to explore more of that side of the music, which was like R&amp;B, like The Weeknd stuff and all that. And we kind of like, just took inspirations from that genre a lot, and we just wanted to pretty much make a &#8220;Hennessy&#8221; times 10 for the EP.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>So what&#8217;s next in the future? <strong>Tavo:</strong>We have a tour coming up in August with Street Mob Records. It&#8217;s going to be with a few other artists, you know. We had it last year as well, and it went good. We also have an album that&#8217;s going to come out this summer. So that&#8217;s something we&#8217;re working on right now. And we&#8217;re also working on getting some collabs as well.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Estilo Sin L&#237;mite&#8211; nos esperan afuera de su hotel. Viajaron un d&#237;a antes desde su natal Nogales, Sonora a CDMX. Dos horas hacia el sur de la ciudad, en Villa Milpa Alta, les esperan la fot&#243;grafa M&#243;nica Zulema y la maquillista Thania Diaz, junto a la nueva colecci&#243;n de Roberto S&#225;nchez lista para vestir a Dania. Curiosamente nos encontramos en el centro del pa&#237;s para realizar esta sesi&#243;n fotogr&#225;fica con colaboradoras principalmente fronterizas. Dania nos comparte que se siente influenciada por las almas de los cerros y los cactus que han vivido durante cientos de a&#241;os en el desierto de Sonora, y en esta ocasi&#243;n, nosotros la fotografiamos entre los magueyes y los cerros cubiertos de nopal de la Ciudad de M&#233;xico.Estilo Sin L&#237;mite ha sido una de las promesas m&#225;s radicales de Rancho Humilde en los &#250;ltimos a&#241;os. Con una poderosa voz, cuyo tinte oscila entre Janis Joplin y Jenni Rivera, Estilo Sin L&#237;mite ha llamado la atenci&#243;n de referentes del pop en espa&#241;ol como Thalia y Paty Cant&#250;. A quienes han jalado hacia colaboraciones de amplio espectro donde el regional mexicano se vuelve un nodo inicial para la creaci&#243;n de exploraciones musicales inesperadas. Unos d&#237;as despu&#233;s de la sesi&#243;n fotogr&#225;fica, la artista visual chihuahuense Natalia Salas Porras se encontr&#243; con Dania y Edgar en una videollamada para hablar sobre el origen, las referencias y las b&#250;squedas art&#237;sticas de Estilo Sin L&#237;mite.</em></p><div><hr></div><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

Todos crecimos de que cantando qui&#233;n sabe qu&#233; fregados no nom&#225;s de que balbuceando. Sin saber los significados. &#191;De qu&#233; disco te acuerdas? <strong>Edgar: </strong>No, pues no era un disco, osea no era un &#225;lbum. Era un disco quemado. Descargaban un pu&#241;o de rolas y las met&#237;an en el disco. <strong>Dania: </strong>&#191;De qu&#233; canci&#243;n te acuerdas? <strong>Edgar: </strong>De &#8220;La Gasolina&#8221; me acuerdo mucho. Tambi&#233;n las de Don Omar. <strong>Dania: </strong>Es que mi mam&#225; era bellaca.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Y cu&#225;ndo se les ocurri&#243; empezar a hacer m&#250;sica juntos? <strong>Dania: </strong>Pues justo yo empec&#233; a escribir canciones a los 7 a&#241;os y pues el Edgar escuchaba para ese entonces mucho a Los Traviezoz de la Zierra, Voz de Mando y M&#225;ximo Grado, y &#233;l so&#241;aba con tener una agrupaci&#243;n de norte&#241;o &#8211;no campirano&#8211; sino norte&#241;o as&#237; con bater&#237;a y acorde&#243;n. Y justo pues vino una etapa de los 7 a los 11 que nos vimos alejados de la idea de hacer m&#250;sica, pero siempre muy apegados a la m&#250;sica en la vida cotidiana. Y ya cuando yo cumpl&#237; 11, le dije a mi mam&#225; que quer&#237;a aprender a tocar el saxof&#243;n. Porque estaba obsesionada en aquella &#233;poca con las canciones de jazz y lo que m&#225;s me llamaba la atenci&#243;n era el saxof&#243;n y cualquier instrumento de viento, pues en general lo que era la trompeta o el tromb&#243;n. <strong>Edgar: </strong>Yo quer&#237;a aprender a tocar el acorde&#243;n. Fuimos a las clases de m&#250;sica y el profe nos empieza a audicionar. Audicion&#243; a la Dania y dice el profe: &#8220;No pues la neta Dania tienes muy bonita voz&#8221;. <strong>Dania: </strong>Justo sin hacer la audici&#243;n, yo entro a la sala que ten&#237;a &#233;l y le digo: &#8220;buenas tardes&#8221;. Y siempre he tenido la voz m&#225;s gruesa de lo convencional. Pues imag&#237;nate chaparrita, mido 1.50m ahorita, en ese entonces med&#237;a 1.30m. Y el profe me dice: &#8220;hey, qu&#233; bonito color de voz tienes, te voy te voy a audicionar&#8221; y yo dije pues &#8220;&#191;Pues c&#243;mo est&#225; el rollo me va a poner a tocar el piano y lo voy a empezar a tocar prodigiosamente?&#8221;. Dije yo no entiendo c&#243;mo funciona esto. Y ya me dijo: &#8220;&#191;qu&#233; canci&#243;n te sabes?&#8221;. Y yo: &#8220;ah, pues ninguna&#8221;. Y me dice: &#8220;el himno nacional lo cantas todos los lunes, ni modo que no te lo sepas&#8221;. Me lleva a su oficina y lo canto y me dice: &#8220;s&#237; te voy a ense&#241;ar a cantar&#8221;. Y yo: &#8220;&#191;No me est&#225; entendiendo profe? Yo no vengo a eso, no vengo a cantar, yo vengo a tocar el saxof&#243;n o instrumento de viento, con hoyitos y teclas&#8221;. Y el profe me dice &#8220;no te voy a ense&#241;ar saxof&#243;n&#8221;. Y le dije: &#8220;ah, no, pues no, entonces creo que tal vez aqu&#237; no sea la escuela que estoy buscando&#8221;. <strong>Edgar: </strong>El caso es que nosotros llegamos con una idea de que seg&#250;n la Dania iba a aprender el saxof&#243;n y yo iba a aprender acorde&#243;n. El profe nos dijo: &#8220;t&#250; no vas a aprender el saxof&#243;n, tienes que cantar porque ese es tu mejor instrumento&#8221;. Y a m&#237; me dijo: &#8220;t&#250; vas a aprender la guitarra para que acompa&#241;es a la Dania&#8221;.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic" width="1456" height="1863" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1863,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:5478984,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/195263278?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!PlyD!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa40656b7-eb25-4105-a2c8-aeb0f799d499_4854x6211.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>&#191;C&#243;mo sienten que los influencia ser del norte? <strong>Dania:</strong> Donde nosotros vivimos hay un buen de cultura y tambi&#233;n hay un buen de etnias. El otro d&#237;a que ven&#237;amos en el camino de Nogales a Hermosillo. Iba viendo todos los cerros llenos de cactus y justo pens&#233; que ah&#237; habitan muchas almas y mucha experiencia porque cu&#225;ntos a&#241;os no tienen esas plantas. Inclusive antes de que uno mismo naciera pues y all&#225; en Sonora se da mucho el cactus de saguaro que tiene los brazos as&#237; levantados y viven durante cientos de a&#241;os, siento que eso nos influencia. Nos influencia mucho en ese aspecto pero tambi&#233;n en la forma de vestir, en la forma de escribir y creo que todo el entorno en general nos ha hecho ver la m&#250;sica de distinta manera. Siento que nos apasiona mucho tambi&#233;n llevar ese lado desde el norte a otros lados del mundo, compartir esa perspectiva.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Estas plantas y estos cerros son m&#225;s viejos que nosotros y van a vivir m&#225;s que nosotros probablemente&#8230; <strong>Dania: </strong>Exactamente yo creo que s&#237; van a van a vivir un poquito m&#225;s que nosotros. Pero s&#237; justo est&#225; bien loco uno a veces no cae en conciencia sobre qu&#233; tanta vida hay ah&#237;. Tantas especies, tanta cultura. Yo el otro d&#237;a estaba en un restaurante y empiezan a tocar mariachi &#8211;yo nunca he hecho mariachi&#8211; pero estaba en un restaurante y estaba escuchando mariachi y se me eriz&#243; la piel y siento que es algo que tenemos los mexicanos ya por naturaleza cuando escuchas m&#250;sica tradicional de tu tierra. Es una sensaci&#243;n que no podr&#237;a describirla, tienes que vivir la experiencia, pero s&#237; siento que tambi&#233;n como la gente del pop lo vive. Porque s&#237; me ha tocado trabajar con mucha gente de M&#233;xico y tambi&#233;n artistas que se dedican a hacer reggaet&#243;n de otros lados y siento que esa energ&#237;a se transmite.</p><div

renombre que han hecho, ya hay mucha gente en Nogales que los reconoce? &#191;D&#243;nde se sienten m&#225;s queridotes? <strong>Dania:</strong> Yo creo que entre Guadalajara y Ciudad de M&#233;xico, Monterrey tambi&#233;n. En Nogales siento que s&#237; somos bien queridos y la banda nos reconoce. La gente de Nogales se siente orgullosa de nosotros por lo que hemos hecho y de que muchas veces siento que en donde nosotros nacimos se limitan. Crecen con una cultura muchos ni&#241;os, no digo que todos porque es distinta por generaci&#243;n, pero al menos por ejemplo la generaci&#243;n de mi preparatoria no se atrev&#237;a a so&#241;ar en grande pues. Porque yo siempre he tenido la autoestima en nivel loba. Yo s&#237; llegaba y les dec&#237;a: &#8220;g&#252;ey, &#191;t&#250; no sientes que viniste al mundo a hacer algo maravilloso?&#8221;. Pero amo con locura y pasi&#243;n nuestra Nogales, siempre que llego siento mucha paz.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;l ha sido su show en vivo favorito? <strong>Dania: </strong>Yo creo que en Ciudad de M&#233;xico, el Arre Fest del a&#241;o pasado. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>&#191;C&#243;mo les fue? Platiquenme de esa experiencia. <strong>Dania: </strong>Nos fue muy lindo. La verdad es que ya ten&#237;a rato queriendo participar en un festival. Fue nuestro primer festival y siento que la la banda lo recibi&#243; muy bien. S&#237; me causaba un poco de incertidumbre porque como somos del norte a veces siento que tenemos curas distintas. Pues s&#237;, curas distintas. Pues y pero de todas maneras nos entendemos no, pero tenemos curas distintas y cuando nos toc&#243; cantar ah&#237; nos preparamos mucho para dar ese show porque la verdad es que siento que la gente cuando va a verte en vivo tienes que dar lo m&#225;s de ti, tienes que dar el m&#225;ximo tu 100% y justo nos preparamos mucho y siento que nos fue muy bien. Me cans&#233; mucho. Fue un gran concierto. Aprend&#237; a siempre llevarme tenis cuando voy a ponerme botas en el escenario.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic" width="1456" height="1941" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1941,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2676822,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/195263278?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!hTku!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fada62a55-a7dc-4f64-87e4-e7251279836b_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Justo pues a ti te veo como s&#250;per confiada, lista para sobresalir y por lo que escuch&#233;

A ti como morra quer&#237;a preguntarte, siento que la industria del corrido ha sido hist&#243;ricamente una escena de vatos, &#191;ha sido intimidante estar all&#225; o c&#243;mo abrazas ese reto? <strong>Dania: </strong>Abrazo el reto, pero a veces he llegado a sentir miedo, se podr&#237;a decir intimidaci&#243;n porque yo s&#233; que tambi&#233;n osea dentro de la cultura del corrido, &#8211;aunque siento que los tiempos est&#225;n cambiando y nos est&#225;n abriendo much&#237;simas puertas a todas las mujeres en general dentro del regional&#8211; siento que muchas veces todav&#237;a se tiene una cultura bastante machista pues, en el aspecto de de letras; con respecto a qu&#233; va a cantar una mujer si est&#225; dentro del regional, porque si est&#225;s dentro del regional, la mayor&#237;a de los hombres te piden que t&#250; cantes de amor o desamor y que no te salgas de ah&#237;. Y, por ejemplo, los corridos siempre han servido para llevar historias desde los tiempos de antes y siento que tambi&#233;n es importante que las mujeres cantemos desde nuestro punto de vista porque yo veo tambi&#233;n muchas canciones de hombres que lo hacen desde la perspectiva de una mujer pero siento que no es lo mismo porque no es una mujer quien est&#225; escribiendo, no es una mujer quien est&#225; cantando, y s&#237; siento que las puertas se est&#225;n abriendo bastante en en estos a&#241;os para todas las morritas que nos dedicamos al regional y espero que siga siendo as&#237;, que se expanda m&#225;s porque yo s&#233; que se viene una oleada muy grande de mujeres, muchas ni&#241;as ya se est&#225;n preparando para cuando llegue su momento. Por ejemplo, en mi ciudad, en mi calle hay ni&#241;as que se inspiran de que nosotros hagamos m&#250;sica y est&#225; muy curioso no solo verlas queriendo cantar, sino tambi&#233;n tocando la

Incluso yo que no s&#233; cantar, lo que mejor me sale cantar es cuando hay norte&#241;o y cuando hay corrido y la gente no se lo espera&#8230; <strong>Dania: </strong>Necesitamos nosotras como mujeres, ser due&#241;as de nuestra voz, de nuestra narrativa, hacer que nos escuchen, hacer que nuestra voz tenga peso. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Claro y &#191;qu&#233; otros proyectos musicales con morras o que sean de morras has topado que nos recomendar&#237;as? <strong>Dania: </strong>Hay varias. Yo te recomendar&#237;a a Delilah Cabrera, que est&#225; en los Corridos Tumbados. Canta muy bien. &#161;Siento que tambi&#233;n trae una propuesta nueva! Sofi Saar tambi&#233;n est&#225; muy bien, esa morra trae hace como Tex Mex. Est&#225; el proyecto de NXNNI, a nosotros nos gusta mucho en lo personal. Vivir Quintana tambi&#233;n est&#225; muy bien, o Ivonne Galaz, que tambi&#233;n est&#225; en Rancho. Influye mucho que la industria ponga a las mujeres tambi&#233;n en el ojo p&#250;blico.

toc&#243; ser burgerkilocos! Yo ten&#237;a 16 a&#241;os, ten&#237;a la presi&#243;n de la escuela m&#225;s la presi&#243;n de trabajo y en aquellas &#233;pocas se dio lo de la pandemia y recuerdo muchos ped&#237;an por el drive-thru y pues imag&#237;nate, una morrita de 16 a&#241;os atendiendo una incre&#237;ble cantidad de personas en un solo d&#237;a. S&#237; me dejaba impactada y hasta cierto punto, ah&#237; fue cuando conoc&#237; la ansiedad. Porque no solo era la escuela y trabajar, tambi&#233;n era la m&#250;sica, eran las tres cosas. Hay un puente para llegar a ese Burger King, me iba caminando desde mi casa para all&#225; porque los taxis se me hac&#237;an muy caros y ir en cami&#243;n era muy arriesgado por la situaci&#243;n de COVID y justo cuando cuando iba en el puente y que miraba as&#237; todo el humo de la carne cocin&#225;ndose, empezaba a sentir mucha ansiedad. No me quejo. &#191;Sabes? Siento que es un buen trabajo para un adolescente porque aprendes disciplina y aprendes a hacer cosas. Yo s&#233; que tuvo un significado m&#225;s all&#225; de eso. Y cuando atend&#237;a a tanta gente me ca&#237; en cuenta que eso era una ense&#241;anza para lo que me tocar&#237;a vivir en la industria musical. Me iba a tocar tratar con muchas personas y no todo el tiempo tratar con personas es agradable. Aunque t&#250; seas agradable no todo el mundo va a ser rec&#237;proco y justo siento que a m&#237; esa etapa me ayud&#243; a entender ese lado y como aprender a tratar a las personas y a todo tipo de personas desde ni&#241;os a adultos de la tercera edad y cada uno con distinto temperamento y cada uno con con distintas formas de hablar.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Siento que han de ser una gran inspiraci&#243;n para cualquier para cualquier morrito o morrita que anda chambeando, que anda viendo qu&#233; va a hacer y a veces pues no sabes a d&#243;nde te va a llevar la vida. Piensas que ser artista se trata como de solo ser artista, como de solo hacer esto. Me parece muy chido platicar de esto y que la raz&#243;n de meterle, de echarle ganas. A veces hay que hacer cosas que no nos gustan para llegar a donde quieres estar y no debes dejar que eso te desanime. <strong>Dania: </strong>Claro y yo creo que me divert&#237;a mucho vendiendo. Porque yo era chica del drive-thru y pues yo siempre he sido muy sonriente entonces para aligerar un poquito la vibra &#8211;porque todo el mundo andaba muy tenso, los gerentes, los que estaban trabajando&#8211; siempre me pon&#237;a a hacerlo con buena actitud en vez de estar todo el d&#237;a frustrada por algo que no voy a poder cambiar. Me preguntaban sobre algo en el men&#250; y contestaba cosas chistosas como: &#8220;Suculentas papas rellenas con queso cheddar&#8221; o &#8220;puedes llevarte un pie de queso con moras por la m&#243;dica cantidad de $23&#8221;. Se trataba de buscarle el lado divertido y justo como comentabas, ser artista no es solo crear tu arte, tiene muchas cosas detr&#225;s. No solo es hacer m&#250;sica, es producirte, mantener activa la comunidad es un buen de esfuerzo, resiliencia y mucha perseverancia. Porque la industria no solo es dulce, es &#225;cida porque tiene sus momentos lindos y tambi&#233;n sus momentos no tan lindos. No considero que la industria musical sea amarga ni dulce, es simplemente &#225;cida. Y siento que si est&#225;s dispuesto a aguantar todo eso y aprender, sobre todo aprender a hacer lo suficientemente humilde para entender que de todo todo el mundo vas a aprender algo, si eres lo suficientemente consciente de todo eso, eres bienvenido. Bienvenido a la industria art&#237;stica en general, porque yo me imagino que a lo que t&#250; te dedicas tambi&#233;n ha de ser una experiencia &#225;cida.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Noto que mucha raza que est&#225; en mi ambiente o eventos, aunque lo que est&#225;n presentando sea su arte, se terminan present&#225;ndose a ellos mismos. Creo que es con lo que m&#225;s he batallado o tambi&#233;n con meterle varo&#8230; <strong>Dania: </strong>En general todo lo que es el arte es caro. No he conocido ninguna rama art&#237;stica que no sea cara y no hablo solamente dinero, hablo de cu&#225;nto cuestan muchas cosas como aprender a separar a Dania la artista de Dania la persona. Tambi&#233;n cuesta cuando lo llegas a asimilar es algo que te frustra porque quisieras t&#250; ser abierta con tu p&#250;blico, con tu audiencia, pero no puedes porque es ponerte muy vulnerable ante todo eso&#8230;</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

estar en ese espacio es vulnerable&#8230; <strong>Dania: </strong>Acabamos de sacar un EP que se llama <em>Otro Tinte</em> y hay un tema en espec&#237;fico que es un lado muy vulnerable m&#237;o, porque esa canci&#243;n habla totalmente de c&#243;mo hemos vivido la industria nosotros. A veces no te sientes lo suficiente, pero esas cosas que vas haciendo te llevan a lugares que nunca imaginaste.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Claro, est&#225;s hablando de la &#250;ltima del EP, la de &#8220;No Me Puedo Rendir&#8221;. Esa fue la canci&#243;n que m&#225;s me gust&#243; de todo el &#225;lbum la neta y se me hizo bien chido que las primeras cuatro rolas, entre ellas &#8220;Otro Tinte&#8221; eran m&#225;s regional, m&#225;s apegadas al g&#233;nero de ustedes. Me sac&#243; bien ca&#241;&#243;n de pedo escuchar las &#250;ltimas dos, la de &#8220;AFERRAFTER&#8221; y la de &#8220;No Me Puedo Rendir&#8221;, porque son completamente diferentes. &#191;C&#243;mo se les ocurri&#243;? <strong>Dania: </strong>La idea principal es utilizar la met&#225;fora de &#8220;otro tinte&#8221; como el cierre de un ciclo y el inicio de algo nuevo y claro que las primeras cuatro canciones buscaban empoderar a la persona que la escuchara, de hablar sobre el amor propio. Porque siento que es un tema muy delicado pero muy importante. Es muy importante que tambi&#233;n uno como persona cultive el amor propio y hablo en general de todas las relaciones, no hablo solamente de una relaci&#243;n de pareja, sino en general de c&#243;mo te relacionas, de las personas que est&#225;n en tu vida, de las personas que dejas que est&#233;n en tu vida. Y justo nosotros pues somos chavitos y por ejemplo la de &#8220;AFERRAFTER&#8221; tambi&#233;n entra dentro del concepto. Las primeras tres canciones son la primera etapa de una ruptura y las &#250;ltimas tres son como la &#250;ltima etapa de una ruptura. Y justo la de &#8220;AFERRAFTER&#8221;, yo le dije a los plebes que la intenci&#243;n era hacer algo chistoso, para hacer re&#237;r buscando ese lado c&#243;mico. Y era una cura que ya tra&#237;amos desde cuando grabamos &#8220;Choro&#8221; con Thal&#237;a. Tra&#237;amos esa cura con los productores, que junto con mi mam&#225; estaban cantando como &#8220;Yo no llego al party si no hay sex&#8230;&#8221; pero as&#237; sin base ni nada. Y es que justo uno de los productores no sale tanto de fiesta pero cuando sale se deschonga, y esa era totalmente la intenci&#243;n de la canci&#243;n. Y me dec&#237;an que a veces en el arte me pongo muy seria. Y ten&#237;an raz&#243;n, el &#250;ltimo tema lo hice muy enojada y muy triste tambi&#233;n pero motivada porque desde que tengo conciencia me pasan cosas que tal vez uno no quisiera vivir. Pero me motivan a hacer cosas m&#225;s grandes.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Se siente que su proyecto tiene un concepto muy claro que est&#225;n siguiendo&#8230; <strong>Dania: </strong>Justamente, por ejemplo, con &#8220;No Me Puedo Rendir&#8221; dije si voy a hacer un trap lo quiero hacer experimental. Por eso tardamos bastante haciendo los sonidos y la producci&#243;n. Para buscar sonidos imaginamos un bosque en la carretera con tonalidades azules. Pero combinado con una pel&#237;cula de vaqueros, donde suena una campana y tienen que disparar en un duelo. A eso quer&#237;amos llegar auditivamente.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>Entonces &#191;quieres que la gente r&#237;a con algunas de sus rolas? &#191;quieres que la gente se sienta empoderada con algunas otras? <strong>Dania:</strong> &#161;Y que les sirva de motivaci&#243;n! Porque yo me acuerdo que de ni&#241;a escuchaba muchos artistas, y que gracias a aquellos existan yo me anim&#233; tambi&#233;n a existir en este mundo art&#237;stico porque yo siento que en lo personal, como cantante, muchas mujeres habitan en m&#237; y cuando yo canto siento que ellas est&#225;n ah&#237; inconscientemente porque son grandes referentes. Como Chabela Vargas, Lila Downs, Janis Joplin, Sade y Jenni Rivera. Por eso por eso la pintada de pelo porque dije yo estoy a punto de entrar a mi prime y necesito traer el pelo pintado como Jenni Rivera en su prime.</p><p><strong>La Cynthia: </strong>&#191;Y Estilo Sin L&#237;mite qu&#233; color tiene? <strong>Dania: </strong>Yo creo que ahorita le tiro a un naranja de atardecer. Imag&#237;nate ver el atardecer de un color entre naranja, rojito y blanco. Como si tuvieras que pintar unas nubes. Imag&#237;nate con mucha imaginaci&#243;n que est&#225;s pintando unas nubes que tienen colores gris&#225;ceos, rojizos, naranjas, y hay como un azul casi tir&#225;ndole al verde, pero rozando el gris. <strong>La Cynthia: </strong>&#191;As&#237; se ven los atardeceres en Nogales? <strong>Dania: </strong>Justo. Un d&#237;a tienes que ir a San Carlos y ver el desierto fusionarse con la playa. Tenerlo en vivo es algo de otro mundo, es muy bello.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Farmerz sin empaparse con la energ&#237;a que esta banda genera. La m&#250;sica y la raza crean un portal que dura desde la primera nota del acorde&#243;n hasta el &#250;ltimo aplauso. Tanto Los Farmerz como su audiencia son abducidos en un viaje musical equiparable a un trance, &#191;qu&#233; tiene su m&#250;sica que provoca estas reacciones? Intentando responder, nos dicen que &#8220;tampoco es un estilo nuevo, los instrumentos que nosotros tocamos han sido cl&#225;sicos, los corridos son cl&#225;sicos y pues ah&#237; nom&#225;s le echamos el sabor&#8221;. El &#8220;sabor&#8221; en la m&#250;sica es una cualidad intangible, es algo que no se puede aprender, quiz&#225; se puede practicar, pero en realidad surge desde el interior de los artistas m&#225;s all&#225; del perfeccionamiento t&#233;cnico o el talento. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnE3IvHJOHA">El &#8220;sabor&#8221; musical de Los Farmerz tiene la cualidad para acelerar a la raza</a>, llevarlos a un estado de encantamiento a trav&#233;s del desmadre. Un recordatorio de la calidez humana tan caracter&#237;stica de M&#233;xico, el lugar de origen. El fr&#237;o individualismo del norte se derrite pisteando. Los Farmerz se conocieron en Perris, California, aunque ellos nos cuentan que a esa ciudad se le apoda &#8220;Perris, Michoac&#225;n&#8221;, por la gran cantidad de michoacanos que ah&#237; llegaron. El artista Alfonso Gonzales Jr. irrumpi&#243; a Los Farmerz en la filmaci&#243;n de un video musical para conversar y mostrarles la pintura que hizo de ellos.</em></p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

Gonz&#225;lez:</strong> Yo pienso que cuando le cae uno m&#225;s el veinte de eso es cuando vamos a estados como Carolina del Norte, y que en los eventos se junta mucha gente que apoya a la

Es cuando digo, madres, est&#225; perro. <strong>Juan Carlos &#8220;El Caco&#8221; Cisneros: </strong>S&#237;, cu&#225;ndo se saben las rolas. <strong>Jes&#250;s Gonz&#225;lez: </strong>No sab&#237;a que hab&#237;a tanta raza en ese estado y mucho menos que nos conocieran a nosotros. <strong>Juan Carlos &#8220;El Caco&#8221; Cisneros:</strong> O cuando la raza del TSA en el aeropuerto te dice que te conoce.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Alfonso Gonzalez Jr.:</strong> &#191;Y cu&#225;l es el estado en el que m&#225;s les gusta tocar? <strong>Juan Carlos &#8220;El Caco&#8221; Cisneros: </strong>Pues en todos lados. El p&#250;blico est&#225; ching&#243;n en todos lados. Hay algunos lados que se alteran m&#225;s que en otros, pero como quiera oyes c&#243;mo lo sienten. <strong>Fernando Santoyo: </strong>Hay lugares donde la gente se mira m&#225;s tranquila pero igual est&#225;n pisteando, est&#225;n disfrutando a gusto. Pero hay partes donde la gente no es tanto de andar aventando botes y cerveza. <strong>Alfonso Gonzalez Jr. </strong>&#191;Y le gusta eso cuando tiran botes con cerveza? <strong>Fernando Santoyo:</strong> Pues s&#237; y no, porque hay veces que avientan y hay ni&#241;os en los eventos y les pegan. Luego tambi&#233;n avientan cubetas. O que avientan los botes llenos. <strong>Jes&#250;s Gonz&#225;lez:</strong> De repente est&#225; el temorcillo de que hay gente que no va a los eventos por eso. Gente que le gusta la m&#250;sica pero le sacan de ir por el ambiente de aventar botes con cerveza. <strong>Juan Carlos &#8220;El Caco&#8221; Cisneros: </strong>Ahora fue mi t&#237;a y me dijo que estaba lloviendo, no solo por la ba&#241;ada en cerveza, sino que unas personas se estaban peleando. <strong>Fernando Santoyo: </strong>Avientan un bote lleno, te cae la cabeza y te descalabran. <strong>Juan Carlos &#8220;El Caco&#8221; Cisneros: </strong>Hay lugares m&#225;s desmadrosos que otros, en uno lado la raza pelea, en otros son m&#225;s tranquilos, otros gritan m&#225;s, en otros no son tan gritones.

Sus protagonistas y participantes est&#225;n demasiado ocupados, absortos en SER y HACER, con escasa preocupacio&#769;n por cualquier tipo de cr&#243;nica o su precisi&#243;n. A menudo, los propios h&#233;roes de estas historias, en sus actos herc&#250;leos, sus caminos singulares, sus destinos divinamente ordenados en apariencia, no aprecian o no pueden apreciar las cualidades mi&#769;ticas que sus vidas y decisiones ocupan en los corazones y las mentes del p&#250;blico, el espectador, el oyente.</em></p><p><em>Incluso para esas pocas historias que s&#237; son escritas o transmitidas, no suele haber presencia real en estos momentos cr&#237;ticos, ni ojos que presenciaran esos momentos clave, solo narradores e int&#233;rpretes. En la antig&#252;edad, cuando habi&#769;a verdaderos h&#233;roes sobre quienes cantar, dependi&#769;amos de bardos viajeros para que nos contaran esas historias, recorriendo las ciudades, con la&#250;des y liras sobre hombros cansados del mundo, cantando sobre las tierras conquistadas, las doncellas salvadas, los males finalmente derrotados. Nos contaban historias y haza&#241;as que, de otro modo, probablemente nunca nos habr&#237;an llegado, y lo hac&#237;an de una manera que cautivaba la imaginaci&#243;n de cualquiera que los escuchara.</em></p><p><em>Esta balada, estas historias populares cantadas con instrumentos de cuerda, casi no tienen an&#225;logo en el mundo moderno, donde la experiencia se atrofia hasta convertirse en una vicaria, donde todos vivimos a trav&#233;s de los sue&#241;os y experiencias de unos pocos, y muy a menudo los &#8220;sue&#241;os&#8221; de corporaciones y grupos focales, a cientos de millas espirituales de donde suenan los ca&#241;ones y los sables, donde la sangre mancha la tierra, donde los h&#233;roes se forjan o encuentran su fin.</em></p><div

para la publicidad. Nosotros, el p&#250;blico, nos quedamos recorriendo esos campos de batalla en busca de cualquier vestigio de significado, de humanidad, del brillo en los ojos y del carisma que pudiera haber llenado los corazones de esos luchadores, de esos artistas. El relato hist&#243;rico de un anciano sobre un encuentro de la infancia con Jesse James. Un comentario en YouTube sobre haber visto una Ford Bronco azul adornada con una estampa del Dueto Miguel y Miguel llegando a la privada en 1988.</em></p><p><em>Uno de los pocos lugares donde se podr&#237;a afirmar con seguridad que quedan fragmentos de esta tradici&#243;n es en el g&#233;nero musical de los corridos, que se traduce en ingl&#233;s literalmente como balada. Una derivaci&#243;n de la m&#250;sica regional, norte&#241;a y ranchera. Aqu&#237;, esos cuentos y quienes los cantan para nosotros siguen siendo venerados y celebrados. Tocamos esas canciones en reuniones familiares, funerales, tomadas, cumplea&#241;os. Se han reproducido cientos de millones de veces en cualquier formato que las admita. Las canciones est&#225;n llenas de guerreros ca&#237;dos, luchas de poder, rivalidades amargas, desamor, traici&#243;n, forajidos, relatos de tiroteos, amigos, amantes, perdidos y encontrados, riquezas ganadas y arruinadas. Muchas, si no todas, de estas historias est&#225;n inspiradas por eventos del mundo real, personas, &#233;pocas y lugares reales. A veces, estos corridos son todo lo que podemos conocer de dichos eventos, o quiz&#225;s podr&#237;an ser, en ciertos casos, la &#250;nica historia que proviene de estas zonas rurales y sus ranchos. En realidad, estos son cuentos folcl&#243;ricos del pueblo en la esencia m&#225;s pura de esa expresi&#243;n.</em></p><p><em>En estos tiempos de gran escasez, y en ausencia de esos h&#233;roes de anta&#241;o, los propios bardos adquieren una cualidad casi sagrada. Sirven como hilo conductor a trav&#233;s de la historia, la clase y la &#233;poca, convirti&#233;ndose en algo asi&#769; como h&#233;roes por derecho propio. Leyendas vivientes. Un vestigio de una &#233;poca desaparecida hace mucho tiempo. Incluso podri&#769;amos empezar a preguntarnos sobre estos bardos: &#191;d&#243;nde escucharon ellos sus historias?  &#191;De d&#243;nde vienen? &#191;C&#243;mo aprendieron a tocar? &#191;C&#243;mo eligieron sus caminos? &#191;Que&#769; ha sido de ellos?</em></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

guitarras de Miguel Angulo y Miguel Montoya cuelgan de un a&#769;rbol como espadas ensangrentadas despu&#233;s de una gran batalla. El d&#250;o se yergue orgulloso junto a ellas como dos pistoleros, dos trovadores convertidos en h&#233;roes por el tiempo y en estrellas por un p&#250;blico ferviente. Sus liras se convierten en sables, que se convierten en liras, los narradores cantores ahora con un p&#250;blico y una audiencia que exigen que se cuente la historia de ellos, los bardos. Esta creciente demanda sobre este tipo de metahistoria es end&#233;mica de los tiempos en que vivimos. Y la iron&#237;a es hermosamente potente, pues flota en el aire como el humo del mezquite.</em></p><p><em>Las guitarras de 12 cuerdas y la cl&#225;sica armonia vuelven a convertirse en espadas en las portadas de De Puntitas y Mientras Viva, dos &#225;lbumes de 1991, y verlos hoy es como contemplar un relieve de San Jorge sobre su drago&#769;n abatido; zumban con un aura irrepetible. Un apogeo que parece tan lejan&#237;simo a pesar de haber ocurrido hace solo unas d&#233;cadas. Una fotograf&#237;a de una colaboraci&#243;n que nos dio tantos cl&#225;sicos, que musicaliz&#243; nuestras victorias y nuestros desamores, que le dio fuego a un joven Ariel Camacho y, por ende, a los corridos como los conocemos hoy. Esto se hace a&#250;n m&#225;s conmovedor por el hecho de que el d&#250;o tom&#243; caminos separados, los pistoleros y viejos amigos, eligieron senderos diferentes, ya sea por empalago, desacuerdos o resentimiento, poco importa. Para nosotros, los admiradores, solo signific&#243; que los legendarios Miguel y Miguel, los principales creadores de corridos al estilo campirano, ya no sonari&#769;an juntos. Cada detalle de su tiempo como grupo, cada aparici&#243;n y cada comentario en YouTube sobre c&#243;mo fue cuando tocaron aqu&#237; y all&#225;, consagrado por esta separaci&#243;n.</em></p><p><em>Aunque el d&#250;o ya no existe, los Migueles siguen con sus respectivos grupos. Y Miguel Montoya sigue componiendo canciones y actuando espor&#225;dicamente. Hace unos a&#241;os, su hijo, tambi&#233;n llamado Miguel Montoya, cre&#243; un canal de YouTube sobre la vida cotidiana, Miguel Montoya Legado. Ofrece una mirada desenfadada a la vida de su padre: cocina, pesca, bebe, interpreta canciones antiguas y nuevas, y un elenco recurrente de vecinos, amigos y familiares.</em></p><div

La aspiraci&#243;n de salir adelante es una de las tem&#225;ticas fundamentales de los corridos que tambi&#233;n permea la obra de Melissa. Ella nos comparte que el sue&#241;o de todo <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@deldesiertoflorjardinera/video/7317351045754014982?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">culichi</a> es &#8220;tener tu casita en tu rancho, tener tu rancho y tener tus carros y tener tu alberquita y tener ah&#237; a tu familia feliz y poder pistear ah&#237; a gusto mientras suena la banda&#8221;. Proyectar la aspiraci&#243;n en una obra de arte es visualizar tus metas. Sue&#241;os pl&#225;sticos que se concretan en lo real. Pero lo pl&#225;stico no es superficial sino moldeable. Y esto define a Melissa como una artista pl&#225;stica capaz de moldear su realidad, principalmente creando autorretratos que integran su contexto actual con sus aspiraciones.</em></p><div><hr></div><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Padilla:</strong> Me llamo Melissa Padilla, tengo 26 a&#241;os y nac&#237; en <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@raul_campos_e/video/7298162251381443846?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">Culiac&#225;n, Sinaloa</a>. Actualmente llevo unos 10 a&#241;os haciendo arte, empec&#233; a trabajar como a los 17. Siempre me interes&#243; encargarme de las cartulinas y las presentaciones en la escuela, porque yo siempre fui muy inteligente, pero no era la m&#225;s met&#243;dica, vaya. Entonces me encargaba de todo lo visual. Y creo que empez&#243; muy por ah&#237;. Sigui&#243; por la fotograf&#237;a, los peque&#241;os dibujitos, la acuarela y ten&#237;a mi <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@starshipcruise/video/7310614827636919584?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">blog de</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@peachynostalgia/video/7297749968683584811?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">Tumblr</a>. Como que ah&#237; empez&#243; el inter&#233;s por hacer algo diferente. Creo que mi trabajo siempre ha ido de la mano con la m&#250;sica. Porque yo de chiquita quer&#237;a ser cantante. Nunca tuve voz para ello, pero siempre he tenido ese inter&#233;s por la m&#250;sica. Ah&#237; me empec&#233; a encaminar. Empec&#233; en la publicidad, hac&#237;a contenido para restaurantes, gimnasios y todas esas cosas. A los 19 a&#241;os decid&#237; irme a la Ciudad de M&#233;xico y ah&#237; fue cuando en realidad se deton&#243; mi propio camino. Todav&#237;a trabajando para otras personas, haciendo <a href="https://i.scdn.co/image/ab67616d0000b273cd6de3998e5f526ea655d433">portadas de m&#250;sica</a> y todo esto. Pero era algo ya m&#225;s de expresi&#243;n propia. No tanto de visual enfocado a la publicidad. La <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@verlinonce/video/7347544873941224710?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">Ciudad de M&#233;xico</a> me abri&#243; los ojos en un <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@irvingvibesdrone/video/7328983705115020549?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">sentido visual</a> y de empat&#237;a, viendo la vida de las personas, tantas <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@postandfly/video/7323022953736719621?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;web_id=7335865449312175622">cosas sucediendo</a> en tan poco tiempo.

Una siempre ve su ciudad como lo mismo. Ya que sales de eso y vuelves, ves las cosas con otros ojos, pues ya empiezas a apreciar lo bonito de ello, lo &#250;nico de ello y es algo que no encuentras en otros lados. Entonces creo que de ah&#237; viene mi trabajo como <a href="https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=watch_permalink&amp;v=740244511108945">Muchamiel.</a></p><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;les han sido tus inspiraciones?

Pon&#237;a unos personajes ac&#225; m&#225;s rebeldes, era yo queriendo rebelarme, queriendo buscarme a m&#237; misma dram&#225;ticamente.

Se me hizo muy curioso cuando la sub&#237;, y la gente me pon&#237;a: &#8220;qu&#233; perra, qu&#233; perra est&#225;&#8221; y no s&#233; qu&#233; m&#225;s. Nunca vi un comentario que entendiera el otro sentido de la imagen. Y eso le da significado a lo que te digo pues, de lo normalizada que est&#225; la violencia. <strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> Entonces, &#191;podr&#237;amos decir que tu contexto sociopol&#237;tico ha definido tambi&#233;n tu arte? &#191;O sea el contexto de M&#233;xico? <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>No te puedo decir que lo ha definido por completo, porque no es todo lo que quiero. Obviamente est&#225; adentro porque no lo puedes ignorar. Sin embargo, siempre he intentado no glorificarlo, simplemente contarlo como lo m&#225;s natural, si se pudiera decir que lo es. Ni hacerlo ver muy morboso, ni glorificarlo, simplemente ponerlo en la mesa. Ponerlo en el contexto que est&#225; alrededor. Pero, aun as&#237;, nuestras vidas contin&#250;an pues. Porque para m&#237; tambi&#233;n es muy importante contar que no solo se trata de eso, siento que algunas veces se ha comentado en alg&#250;n art&#237;culo o en alguna semblanza que me han escrito, que es &#8220;arte de buchonas&#8221; o &#8220;narco arte&#8221;. Y pues para m&#237; Sinaloa no significa necesariamente eso. Tambi&#233;n hay historias de amor. Amor a la m&#250;sica, a la familia, al estilo de vida sinaloense, que no necesariamente tienen que estar manchados siempre. <strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>Claro. Creo que pocas personas conocen ese contexto no manchado de Sinaloa, &#191;qu&#233; podr&#237;as hablarnos de eso? &#191;Qu&#233; ser&#237;a lo m&#225;s bonito que podr&#237;as decir? <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>Es algo que no sabr&#237;a explicar, porque es algo que no m&#225;s entiendes cuando llegas ah&#237; pues. Pero es como llegar ah&#237; y sentirme recibida. Siento que es algo que podemos decir muchos sinaloenses. Sientes que ah&#237; tienes amigos en todos lados, como si anduvieras ah&#237; en tu casa y pues no tienes que tener verg&#252;enza. O comportarte as&#237; con cuidado, hay una camarader&#237;a, se puede decir. Hay amistad a pesar de todo lo que se dice en las noticias, hay valores familiares, hay respeto por el pr&#243;jimo. Fuera de todo s&#237; hay amor y hay diversi&#243;n. Yo creo que eso es lo m&#225;s bonito. Tambi&#233;n muchas de mis piezas son as&#237; de &#8220;aqu&#237; en el parque comi&#233;ndome mi heladito&#8221;, o &#8220;aqu&#237; dando la vuelta por el malec&#243;n&#8221;, o &#8220;aqu&#237; en la calle escuchando m&#250;sica&#8221;, o que me voy a las dunas, que me voy a la playa y escucho la banda. Yo creo que eso, por m&#225;s simple que se vea, es lo que m&#225;s le llena a uno. Lo m&#225;s sencillo a pesar de que suele ser un lugar muy exc&#233;ntrico y muy guiado por los lujos, y por el tener. Eso tambi&#233;n dice mucho del contraste del consumismo, o sea de lo valuable, lo material y de lo invaluable que son las cosas como el cari&#241;o y el amor.</p><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>&#191;Y c&#243;mo ha sido tu interacci&#243;n con las personas que te siguen? Las que te han seguido en tu carrera como artista. &#191;Cu&#225;l ha sido la obra que ha causado m&#225;s impacto o pol&#233;mica? <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> No s&#233;. &#191;M&#225;s revuelo? Pues tengo algunas, pero as&#237; hablando como de los likes, lo que m&#225;s cuenta realidad... Pero no, para m&#237;, la pieza m&#225;s especial, y que siento que tiene m&#225;s de qu&#233; hablar y que ha generado ciertas cosas cuando ha sido mostrada en exposiciones, es una de mis piezas en &#243;leo, que se llama <em><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_21B1XGA-EfDv8__TPavV_JO1LXiil4d/view?usp=sharing">Casa de Mu&#241;ecas</a></em>. Es mi pieza m&#225;s personal. Es una casa de mu&#241;ecas en medio del monte. Habla mucho de lo que todos aspiramos como sinaloenses. Querer tener tu casita en tu rancho, tener tu rancho y tener tus carros y tener tu alberquita y tener ah&#237; a tu familia feliz y poder pistear ah&#237; a gusto mientras suena la banda. Es el sue&#241;o. Yo quiero llegar ah&#237;. Y a la vez ah&#237; en la casita pongo todos mis sentimientos, pongo retratos de mi mam&#225;, de mi casa, de mi abuelo y tal. Y tambi&#233;n tiene una parte religiosa. Creo que es como el resumen de mi vida. El contexto social, mi ser individual y el espiritualismo, pues. Y creo que eso ha llegado. Y a pesar de que mucha gente pasa y lo vea y diga: &#8220;mira, qu&#233; gracioso el arte de una buchona&#8221;. A pesar de eso creo que de cierta manera tambi&#233;n llega por otros lados. Est&#225; bien, no me importa que se generalice a veces. Es normal.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic" width="1440" height="1780" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/afdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1780,&quot;width&quot;:1440,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:427587,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/194566485?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!p0lZ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fafdb7270-2b75-4c8b-9840-05fde54b0862_1440x1780.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>He visto tu trabajo y haces mucho autorretrato, &#191;c&#243;mo fue que empezaste a hacerlo? &#191;Para ti qu&#233; representa ponerte en evidencia? <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> F&#237;jate que empez&#243; de la manera m&#225;s l&#243;gica para m&#237;, porque empez&#243; en el COVID. Yo estaba sola en mi casa. Me gusta la fotograf&#237;a, pero nunca he sido muy de decirle a la gente que les tomo unas fotos o de que salimos a tomar fotos y nos vestimos&#8230; Siempre me dio verg&#252;enza pedirle permiso a alguien para tomarle fotos. Entonces, pues, &#191;qui&#233;n mejor que uno, &#191;sabes? Para explorar... <strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>Lo digo porque es fuerte, no s&#233;, como que no muchas personas se atreven a ponerse en evidencia, llega a parecer un acto como de valent&#237;a, &#191;sabes? <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> Es porque llega a verse egocentrista. La gente llega a pensar que es egocentrismo porque te pintas a ti una y otra vez. O cuestionan qui&#233;n va a querer comprar un cuadro tuyo. A veces intento deslindarme de eso, pero a final de cuentas no te puedo mentir que las piezas en las que aparezco yo s&#237; terminan teniendo algo personal. S&#237;, me termino proyectando y no s&#233; por qu&#233; no me da miedo proyectarme as&#237;. Luego s&#237; me aventaba mis discursitos en todo mi caption de Instagram. Pero es parte de ser artista&#8230;</p><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;l es tu proceso creativo? &#191;C&#243;mo empiezas? &#191;Lo piensas o lo dibujas primero o solamente te pones a hacerlo as&#237; directo? Tambi&#233;n veo que mezclas varias t&#233;cnicas&#8230; <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>Pues siempre ha sido muy digital, en realidad yo s&#237; sab&#237;a dibujar y todo esto pero yo no sab&#237;a pintar. Hace unos a&#241;os cuando empec&#233; a hacer esto, en realidad no sab&#237;a pintar formalmente, entonces todo empez&#243; en Photoshop. Con esta t&#233;cnica que se llama matte painting, es como tomar fotograf&#237;as y pintarlas. Pero yo lo llevo al extremo, porque las pinto casi por completo. Hay gente que me dice que parece muy falso, pero a final de cuentas siento que se ve &#250;nico y eso es lo interesante. Mucha gente me dice &#8220;eso es una foto&#8221;, pero es una pintura, y luego les ense&#241;o una pintura y me dicen &#8220;eso est&#225; hecho en la computadora&#8221;, y les ense&#241;o algo hecho en la computadora y me dicen &#8220;eso es una pintura&#8221;. Siento que quer&#237;a empezar mi proyecto muy por la iconograf&#237;a, siento que era necesario, que era algo que no hab&#237;a pasado y siento que ten&#237;a que ser as&#237; de expl&#237;cito. Actualmente estoy haciendo cosas m&#225;s sueltas, tal vez menos expl&#237;citas, no tan ilustrativas ni tan literales. Un poquito m&#225;s contempor&#225;neo, pero esto fue completamente tradicional realista, porque siento que ten&#237;a que ser as&#237;. De hecho una de mis m&#225;s grandes inspiraciones es <a href="https://www.digitalmex.mx/media/k2/items/cache/d287f0b4f32225a13941e715a19dc334_XL.jpg">Jes&#250;s de la Helguera</a>, un pintor de

Ya sabes c&#243;mo somos, a los de Sinaloa nos encanta presumir. Pero siempre ha existido el estilo y por m&#225;s que a mucha gente no le guste, le parezca muy corriente o exagerado, por m&#225;s que digan que es de narcos, que esto, que lo otro, hay propuesta y eso es de admirarse. <strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>T&#250; tambi&#233;n eres parte de estos nuevos artistas que est&#225;n poniendo su cultura y su contexto en un lugar muy fuerte que antes no se valoraba en este mundo del Tumblr de la era digital. Ahorita tenemos much&#237;simas herramientas para promocionar o poner ah&#237; nuestras im&#225;genes, nuestros sonidos, &#191;qu&#233; opinas de todo esto? Porque para m&#237; s&#237; es un movimiento. <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> Es un cambio completo, un giro entero a lo que significa ser artista. Porque te digo, yo empec&#233; mi educaci&#243;n de pintura hace unos tres a&#241;os, y mi maestro <a href="https://www.noroeste.com.mx/entretenimiento/cultura/miguel-angel-sainz-inspira-la-creacion-de-artistas-EBNO1003326">Miguel &#193;ngel Sainz</a>, es un pintor de hace mucho tiempo, muy respetado y tal. Y siempre estamos comparando eso, lo que significa ser artista ahorita. El hecho de que ya no necesitas la galer&#237;a para promocionar tu obra. Puedes vender de otra manera. Puedes vender por TikTok. Estoy como al borde de esa era, estoy adentro de eso, pero a&#250;n as&#237; siento que los nuevos vienen muy pesados, lo traen en la sangre. Como dec&#237;as, &#191;c&#243;mo te pones ah&#237; tan afuera? Yo siento que me falta m&#225;s, porque ahorita tienes que poner toda tu personalidad, toda tu persona. Tienes que subir seis videos al d&#237;a diciendo yo soy esto, hice esto y esta canci&#243;n, porque esto y significa esto. Est&#225; pesado, pero la verdad es que no hay nada mejor, es que el mundo est&#225; all&#225;.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

te ha dado inseguridad? &#191;C&#243;mo has llevado esta relaci&#243;n con el mundo del arte? <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>No te voy a mentir, si est&#225; dif&#237;cil, porque a pesar de que yo siempre estuve acostumbrada a subir mis dibujitos al Instagram y todo eso, pues s&#237; est&#225; complicado poner algo tan crudo all&#225; afuera. Y aunque puedes decir que hay gente m&#225;s loca, tal vez es algo que alguien no hab&#237;a hecho al menos de la forma que yo lo he hecho. Entonces pues s&#237; me caus&#243; inseguridad tambi&#233;n el hecho de no saber pintar. Porque cuando empec&#233; a hacer esas piezas, dije yo quiero estar en museos y ese era mi objetivo. Al empezar a conocer ese mundo, me di cuenta que estar en un museo no es barato. Estar comprando materiales no es barato. Hay clasismo, hay delincuencia, hay corrupci&#243;n. Claro que fue duro y que entraran mis obras ah&#237; aceptadas a ese mundo que es tan exclusivo. Yo s&#237; sent&#237;a que era algo nuevo para m&#237;, y hasta la fecha no te puedo decir que encajo del todo. Pero de cierta forma s&#237;, pues yo s&#233; que hay gente que lo aprecia. Y gracias a ellos me han abierto las puertas en museos y en galer&#237;as. Y te sientes validada pues. En alg&#250;n punto esa validaci&#243;n llega y no es que sea necesaria, pero si de alguien he buscado validaci&#243;n tal vez es de mi mam&#225; y nada m&#225;s con eso ya estoy contenta, pues. A parte de mi comunidad, no me importa si los dem&#225;s lo aprecian o no, simplemente lo hago porque creo que es bonito expresar lo que sucede ah&#237; y lo hago para mi familia y ya est&#225;. No puedo clavarme, si te clavas pierdes. Porque cuando empiezas a ver el mundo, ahorita que ya estoy un poco m&#225;s grande, ya comprendo m&#225;s las cosas, y como que te cuesta soltar. Piensas, &#191;va a gustar o no? &#191;va a funcionar? y tal&#8230; Y as&#237; no se puede, ya estuve varios meses queriendo cambiar, hacer cosas nuevas y as&#237; no se puede. Hasta ahorita ya dije otra vez: me voy a divertir un rato y me solt&#233;. Sin pensar en qu&#233; ser&#225; lo qu&#233; dir&#225;n y salieron 10 piezas de una.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic" width="1456" height="1941" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1941,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1751519,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/194566485?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!973M!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe3cef004-25bb-443a-84dc-90536dcf6c15_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca:</strong> Oye, &#191;y c&#243;mo fue tu colaboraci&#243;n con Natanael Cano? &#191;Cu&#225;l fue la historia? <strong>Melissa Padilla </strong>En realidad, yo hice un video animado para Ovi. Una persona que estaba ah&#237; en Corridos Tumbados hace un tiempo. Y era una canci&#243;n de Ovi, Natanael Cano y Adriel Favela. Hice un video animado y b&#225;sicamente de ah&#237; salieron las portadas. Me acuerdo que me mandaban fotillos de ellos. As&#237; de ponme esta ropa y as&#237;. El Ovi me dijo que al Natanael le gust&#243; para su portada. Y ya no m&#225;s fue ponerle la letra de Trap Tumbado y ya qued&#243;. Es gracioso, porque ya fue hace rato, no era el hit que es ahorita. Ya era un hit, pero no lo que es ahorita. Era otra era para todos. Un movimiento por todos lados. Es algo que est&#225; sucediendo, no solo en la m&#250;sica, sino en el arte. Hay muchos artistas mexicanos y mexicoamericanos en Estados Unidos que est&#225;n haciendo cosas bien perras, la verdad. Me interesar&#237;a tambi&#233;n conocer un poquito all&#225;. Pero al final de cuentas, sinceramente, no queda m&#225;s que expresar lo que para m&#237; es de verdad, &#191;sabes? Lo que soy yo.</p><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>Y, por ejemplo, &#191;cu&#225;l es tu visi&#243;n del arte? &#191;Qu&#233; es el arte para ti en estos momentos? <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>Ahorita mismo es como si estuviera volviendo a empezar, porque se trata mucho de ver para adentro. Y gracias a Dios ahorita ando bien feliz con mi novio, viajando por el mundo y ando viendo muy para fuera, te puedo decir. Ando muy contenta con la gente que tengo cerca, que no es mucha, pero ando disfrutando la vida. Y ahora creo que me toca voltear para adentro y decir qu&#233; es lo que yo siento, de qu&#233; es lo que estoy agradecida, de qu&#233; estoy feliz, qu&#233; es lo que me ha estado pasando estos d&#237;as, qu&#233; me hace la nueva persona que ahora soy. Y eso es el arte para m&#237;.  Entonces, es como una transici&#243;n, como un cierre, pues. Es un resumen de lo que pas&#243; y tambi&#233;n de lo que va a pasar. <strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong> &#191;C&#243;mo lograste tener tu estilo personal? <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>Pues no ando agarrando muchas opiniones. Si comparto con alguien es con mi pareja, con mi mam&#225; y con <a href="https://www.instagram.com/melissa_mucha_miel/">mi amiga Krishna</a>. Ella es otra gran artista sinaloense, conf&#237;o en su ojo como artista y tambi&#233;n porque ella me conoce. Eso es lo m&#225;s importante. Si ense&#241;as tu arte a alguien que no te conoce, que no sabe lo que est&#225;s buscando expresar, es muy dif&#237;cil que pueda servirte la opini&#243;n. Entonces para m&#237; lo m&#225;s importante es compartirlo en casa. Me importa que las piezas puedan crear una emoci&#243;n en otra persona. Por ejemplo, cuando voy a hacer una pieza del Estadio Tomateros ah&#237; en Culiac&#225;n, me importa pensar que a alguien m&#225;s le pueda emocionar. Yo iba ah&#237; siempre con mi pap&#225; y com&#237;amos esquites. Me gu&#237;a mucho el generar nostalgia o empat&#237;a, por eso hablo de las historias que se cuentan ah&#237;. Ha llegado mucha gente a contarme: &#8220;en esas escaleras que t&#250; pintaste, ah&#237; vive mi t&#237;a&#8221; o &#8220;en ese resbaladero que t&#250; pintaste me la pasaba cuando ten&#237;a 10 a&#241;os&#8221;. Eso es lo m&#225;s bonito para m&#237; la verdad.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic" width="1456" height="1941" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1941,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1751519,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/194566485?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!6mRQ!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe4e64171-e479-4bd7-9f76-a22e713825e9_3024x4032.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>&#191;Qu&#233; opinas de la situaci&#243;n de los artistas mexicanos? De las oportunidades que hay&#8230; <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>Creo que deber&#237;a haber un poco m&#225;s de apertura para la visi&#243;n joven. Entrar a los museos m&#225;s importantes no se deber&#237;a tratar tanto de trayectoria y de renombre, creo que deber&#237;a ser m&#225;s, sobre el gusto, el inter&#233;s y la novedad. No te puedo asegurar porque no viv&#237; en Inglaterra, ni en Alemania, ni en Estados Unidos, pero yo veo ah&#237; que los artistas hacen piezas totalmente fuera de lo com&#250;n, de lo que es socialmente aceptado o pol&#237;ticamente aceptado y pueden entrar a una galer&#237;a y pueden estar representados por galer&#237;as importantes. Entonces creo que nos falta eso. <strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>S&#237;, por ejemplo, con la m&#250;sica es muy distinto. Porque puedes hacer una canci&#243;n y puede pegar, &#191;sabes? Puede ser un hit al otro d&#237;a. Con el arte siento que en M&#233;xico es dif&#237;cil porque est&#225; muy blanqueado. Tienes esa limitante de ser joven, por ejemplo, de hacer algo diferente, pero tambi&#233;n tu contexto social se puede volver una limitante&#8230; <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> S&#237;, un mont&#243;n en realidad, yo he tenido el privilegio. Puedo decirte que no soy ni rica, ni pobre, pues. Pero simplemente el hecho de dedicarte al arte en M&#233;xico ya es un privilegio. Y no significa que sea f&#225;cil. Pero es que en otras circunstancias, una cosita que haya cambiado en mi historia, alguna cosita y yo no hubiera podido. Tienes que tener un espacio grande para pintar, tienes que tener los materiales, tienes que pagar para mandar la obra para all&#225; o para ac&#225;. Hay espacios en Sinaloa y hay mucha gente creando espacios nuevos y eso lo valor&#243; un mont&#243;n, yo creo que hay un mont&#243;n de gente bien creativa. Y me gustar&#237;a ver a esa gente que yo veo en el Instagram tan diferente, tan creativa, tan nueva, exhibiendo en una galer&#237;a. En Sonora se me dio el espacio, en el Museo de Arte de Sonora y eso lo aprecio mucho. Tuvieron el atrevimiento, la visi&#243;n y fue todo un &#233;xito porque el museo estuvo lleno de j&#243;venes y no hay nada m&#225;s bonito que eso. Tambi&#233;n los j&#243;venes llevaban a sus padres y todo y era una experiencia de interacci&#243;n, porque yo tambi&#233;n escuchaba los comentarios de las personas mayores, escuchaba los comentarios de los j&#243;venes y todos ten&#237;amos algo en com&#250;n. Yo no pensaba que pod&#237;a llegar a empatizar con alguien de cierta edad, pero las se&#241;oras me dec&#237;an, esto me recuerda a las ilustraciones de las revistas de los c&#243;mics y no s&#233; qu&#233;. No creo que los espacios se tengan que limitar a estilos.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic" width="1456" height="1049" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1049,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2603042,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/heic&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/194566485?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2SD9!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F88caf66c-939d-4adb-9ad8-c225e8c3f284_2684x1933.heic 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>&#191;Cu&#225;l es tu mayor sue&#241;o? <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> Ay, mi mayor sue&#241;o. Pues la verdad s&#237; quisiera tener un estudio bien bonito, &#191;sabes? Ahorita no te puedo decir que estoy cumpliendo un sue&#241;o, porque estoy viajando y es algo que yo no pens&#233;, que yo no ve&#237;a pasar tan pr&#243;ximo. Yo no pens&#233; que fuera a pasar as&#237; nom&#225;s y est&#225; pasando, y por eso estoy muy agradecida y creo que es algo que me est&#225; enriqueciendo mucho como persona y como artista. Te digo yo, yo soy muy cari&#241;osa. A pesar de todo soy social, pero a la vez soy cohibida, entonces ahorita estoy viviendo un sue&#241;o. Si estoy viviendo un sue&#241;o y lo que sigue es seguir creando, tener la posibilidad de seguir pintando y seguir comiendo, es ahorita mi sue&#241;o.</p><p><strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>&#191;La moda ha influenciado tu trabajo? <strong>Melissa Padilla:</strong> S&#237;, no te puedo decir que soy la que se viste m&#225;s perro. No es como que me puedo dar el lujo de comprarme ropa cara, pero la pintura me da esa chance de vestirme como yo quiera. Ah&#237; me visto con la ropa de mis sue&#241;os. Tambi&#233;n tengo una pieza sobre eso, que se llama &#8220;My Scene&#8221;. Como ese estilo de Barbie, pero tambi&#233;n es como &#8220;Mi Sinaloa&#8221;, como &#8220;My Sin&#8221;. Y es como del juego de vestirme como yo quiera, y ponerme como en una cajita de Barbie. Fue antes de que saliera la pel&#237;cula de Barbie. Yo me adelant&#233;, antes de que se pusiera de moda. En este retrato me pongo accesorios con mi bolsita Prada y no s&#233; qu&#233;, y los discos de las portadas que hab&#237;a hecho, y ropita que alg&#250;n d&#237;a me voy a poder comprar.  Es como aspiracional, creo que eso tambi&#233;n es una palabra muy importante en Sinaloa. Ser aspiracional es muy importante. No hablando en sentido material, sino creerte capaz de conseguir lo que quieras. No me rige lo material, no me desespera, pero si llega, llega, &#191;por qu&#233; no? <strong>Samantha Menchaca: </strong>Y tambi&#233;n los corridos han influido mucho en eso. Por ejemplo, yo estaba en un punto de mi vida muy triste y, aunque siempre he escuchado m&#250;sica mexicana, comenc&#233; a escuchar m&#225;s corridos, y literal me cambiaron la vida. Escuchar a Luis R. Conriquez y las historias de que le echa un chingo de ganas para conseguir lo que quieren y que ya no son pobres y que ahora est&#225;n ayudando a los dem&#225;s. Eso me ha inspirado much&#237;simo a echarle huevos, &#191;no? O sea, de que s&#237; se puede. Y tener estos personajes arm&#225;ndola. De que Peso Pluma logr&#243; ser millonario en un a&#241;o y llegar a un chingo de pa&#237;ses. &#191;Te ha inspirado as&#237; la m&#250;sica tambi&#233;n? &#191;Qu&#233; corrido te ha hecho sentir eso? <strong>Melissa Padilla: </strong>Yo tambi&#233;n me motivo, me alucino as&#237;. Creo que hay uno de Junior H, el de Tengo motivos. Est&#225; bien perro pensar tambi&#233;n en los de Luis R., pues claro que te viajas. Imag&#237;nate que perro llegar y comprarle una camioneta a mi mam&#225;. Yo so&#241;aba eso de chiquita y dec&#237;a: le voy a arreglar el patio a mi abuelita, para que lo tenga muy bonito su patio. Y al final de cuentas eso s&#237; puede llegar con perseverancia, con motivaci&#243;n, pero tambi&#233;n con diversi&#243;n, porque no debes hacer las cosas nom&#225;s por impulso, por querer, por envidia o por ego, hay que echarle coraz&#243;n tambi&#233;n.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

La conozco toda &#8211;de consumo personal o de second hand smoking&#8211;. La banda de electro pop m&#225;s ic&#243;nica de los a&#241;os 2000s en M&#233;xico y adjuntos hispanohablantes defini&#243; el cambio de milenio, una &#233;poca bastante optimista donde la globalizaci&#243;n era todav&#237;a una idea positiva y un futuro donde todos estuvi&#233;ramos conectados significaba de cierta forma una mejor humanidad... D&#237;as antes de la fecha recibo un meme que dice: &#8220;Pongan electropop mon&#243;gamo-sentimental ultratierno existencialista de la coqueter&#237;a metaf&#237;sica del ser&#8221;.</em></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Si Cocktail representa un t&#243;tem de la electr&#243;nica experimental mexicana, Dulce Beat es la transici&#243;n hacia una f&#243;rmula m&#225;s pop latinoamericana, que efectivamente termin&#243; por convertirse en la educaci&#243;n rom&#225;ntica/sentimental de toda una generaci&#243;n. Las letras de Denise nos hicieron cantar todo tipo de cursiler&#237;as con plena consciencia de que el cuento del amor rom&#225;ntico era una fantas&#237;a y que &#8220;el pasado y el futuro, s&#243;lo existe hoy&#8221;.</em></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><em>M&#225;s de 20 a&#241;os despu&#233;s de esos primeros lanzamientos y el Sue&#241;o Electro, la fantas&#237;a ha muerto o m&#225;s bien se ha hecho realidad. Los premios y el deseo de conectar &#237;ntimamente con las masas han sido obtenidos. Denisse vuelve a lanzar material, ahora como solista y desde una lugar m&#225;s tranquilo. Si la alegor&#237;a entonces era el rosa pastel, ahora parece estar habitando de una manera totalmente casual y de nuevo consciente, la escala de grises.</em></p><div><hr></div><div

la m&#250;sica? S&#233; que eres de Los Mochis y que originalmente te mudaste a Guadalajara para estudiar dise&#241;o de modas, &#191;pero c&#243;mo fue que entraste al mundo de la noche, la fiesta y la m&#250;sica? <strong>Denisse Guerrero: </strong>Desde que yo era muy ni&#241;a siempre me llam&#243; la atenci&#243;n la m&#250;sica, de hecho s&#237; recuerdo la primera vez que se me ocurri&#243; hacer una canci&#243;n. Debo haber tenido como unos cinco a&#241;os y creo que estaba en la ventana de la casa de mi abuela cuando pens&#233; en crear una canci&#243;n por primera vez. Todav&#237;a no sab&#237;a ni leer ni escribir. La m&#250;sica siempre estuvo muy presente para m&#237;. No s&#233;, en mi familia no hay nadie que se dedique a esta carrera. Sin embargo, fue algo que siempre atrap&#243; mi mente y comenc&#233; normal como todas las personas que se interesan por el arte. A mi mam&#225; le gustaba mucho fomentarme todo lo que ten&#237;a que ver con el arte cuando era ni&#241;a. Era muy curiosa, sobre todo porque fui una ni&#241;a muy precoz. Comenc&#233; a hablar desde muy chica y siempre hubo cierto inter&#233;s hacia las letras. Por ejemplo, desde muy ni&#241;a siempre en mi cabeza estaba como: &#8220;ay es el d&#237;a de las madres&#8221;, que aqu&#237; en M&#233;xico se celebra tanto&#8230; Dec&#237;a pues te voy a escribir un poema o voy a hacer un cuento o voy a escribir una canci&#243;n. Siempre estuvo muy presente en mi vida en la secundaria y preparatoria. </p><p><strong>Alberto Bustamante: </strong>&#191;Ten&#237;as un diario cuando eras chica? <strong>Denisse Guerrero:</strong> Alguna vez tuve un diario. Antes se utilizaba de que ten&#237;as como esta libretita y le pones as&#237; como un candadito y abr&#237;as con la llave y me acuerdo que la tuve unos meses. Cuando entr&#233; a la secundaria no me trataban tan bien. Y me acuerdo que una vez invit&#233; a una amiga a la casa y abri&#243; esta libreta y se comenz&#243; a burlar de m&#237;. Entonces dije: &#8220;&#191;Sabes qu&#233;? Ya no quiero este pinche diario, yo no quiero volver a escribir nada&#8221;. Tengo este recuerdo de cuando me cambi&#233; a esta escuela que era una escuela m&#225;s fresa. Cuando entr&#233; primero ten&#237;a mucho &#233;xito con los chavitos. Yo desde muy chica ten&#237;a en mente que me quer&#237;a dedicar a la m&#250;sica, pero me acuerdo que cuando entr&#233; y ten&#237;a cierto &#233;xito con los chavillos populares dije: &#8220;Ay a lo mejor me olvido de la m&#250;sica, me puedo acostumbrar a eso&#8221;. Pero unos meses despu&#233;s comenzaron a hacerme mucho bullying y dije: &#8220;&#191;Sabes qu&#233;? Olv&#237;dalo&#8221;. O sea regresemos al plan A que es hacer m&#250;sica. Y me acuerdo que en esa secundaria y preparatoria hab&#237;a muchos grupos de rock, de chavitos que toc&#225;bamos covers. Como soy de los 90, entonces me toc&#243; el grunge como la m&#250;sica alternativa y recuerdo que alguien en el sal&#243;n dijo: &#8220;Ay qui&#233;n sabe escribir canciones&#8221;. Y obviamente dije que yo. Imag&#237;nate en mi mente de ni&#241;a de 12-13 a&#241;os, me sent&#237;a s&#250;per segura y con toda la capacidad. En realidad eran unos ni&#241;os, &#233;ramos unos ni&#241;os todos, pero definitivamente s&#237; me ayud&#243;. Entonces segu&#237; tocando, me acuerdo que grabamos nuestro primer demo como a los 16 a&#241;os. Juntamos dinero y nos grab&#243; un conocido con una m&#225;quina de cinta. Realmente nuestro demo fue en una grabadora de casetes.</p><p><strong>Alberto Bustamante: </strong>Yo hab&#237;a imaginado que m&#225;s bien tu acceso a la m&#250;sica hab&#237;a sido a trav&#233;s de la fiesta y como echando desmadre pero lo que est&#225;s contando es m&#225;s bien como un camino hiper claro&#8230; <strong>Denisse Guerrero: </strong>S&#237;, siempre tuve muy claro que me quer&#237;a dedicar a la m&#250;sica. Y ten&#237;a esta idea de lo que era escribir canciones y cantar con cierto estilo. Me acuerdo que cuando era ni&#241;a tuve algunas clases de m&#250;sica y me acuerdo que un d&#237;a tuvimos una clase de solfeo. De entrada la maestra me dijo: &#8220;No cantes as&#237;&#8221;. Pero obviamente yo no le hice caso. Yo ten&#237;a esta mentalidad del estilo que yo cantaba, que de hecho en mi carrera, en los inicios me cost&#243; mucho trabajo porque toda la gente se preguntaba por qu&#233; cantaba as&#237;. Pero yo ten&#237;a una visi&#243;n distinta acerca de la m&#250;sica y m&#225;s all&#225; de hacerlo bien o mal, yo siempre tuve muy claro que quer&#237;a tener un sonido &#250;nico. Pero a veces esta visi&#243;n de crear algo &#250;nico te genera cr&#237;ticas y la gente me dec&#236;a: &#8220;Ay, es que no sabes cantar&#8221;. La moda fue como una opci&#243;n B porque en mi familia, &#8211;mexicana s&#250;per tradicional de un lugar peque&#241;o&#8211;, obviamente me dec&#237;an que es muy dif&#237;cil la carrera de la m&#250;sica y no iba a poder sostenerme econ&#243;micamente. Entonces era una buena opci&#243;n que t&#250; tuvieras un plan B, en caso de que tu carrera en la m&#250;sica no funcionara. Pero yo lo ten&#237;a clar&#237;simo y siento que este tipo de personalidad es muy necesaria en estas carreras, que verdaderamente s&#237; son muy dif&#237;ciles y es muy complicado llegar a ser conocido o a que te tomen en serio, pero creo que sobre todas las cosas yo siempre tuve mucha seguridad.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

&#191;podr&#237;amos decir que tambi&#233;n le pon&#237;as mucha atenci&#243;n a esa parte de la imagen o la est&#233;tica de la banda? <strong>Denisse Guerrero:</strong> Desde que era muy ni&#241;a siempre fui muy creativa al momento de buscar mi indumentaria. Yo ven&#237;a de un lugar muy peque&#241;o, muy tradicional, muy conservador, pero siempre captur&#243; mi mente y mi atenci&#243;n todo lo que ten&#237;a que ver con la indumentaria. Por haber nacido en los noventas me encantaba, por ejemplo, la est&#233;tica de Courtney Love o de Drew Barrymore, que se vest&#237;an incre&#237;ble. O la est&#233;tica de D&#8217;arcy, la bajista de Smashing Pumpkins, me acuerdo la primera vez que vi en el video de &#8220;Bullet with Butterfly Wings&#8221; con el cabello azul, dije yo quiero el cabello igual y eso incentivaba mucho mi creatividad. En Sinaloa, para el estilo que a m&#237; me gustaba no hab&#237;a opciones, entonces era irme por las tardes al centro y ponerme a buscar ropa y mi mam&#225; me segu&#237;a un poco el rollo con eso. Yo dise&#241;aba mis vestidos, mis pantalones, obviamente hac&#237;a mucho uso tambi&#233;n del reciclaje, porque de repente tomaba joyer&#237;a de mi mam&#225; y la transformaba. Y desde ah&#237; fui una persona muy creativa debido a que en M&#233;xico todav&#237;a no exist&#237;a tanto la globalizaci&#243;n, porque si t&#250; te ibas a Estados Unidos, obviamente ibas a tener un mont&#243;n de opciones, pero toda esta creatividad ven&#237;a de esas figuras est&#233;ticas que me inspiraban y mi opci&#243;n era irme a comprar telas y dejar volar mi creatividad. Sin que yo lo reflexionara tanto, entr&#233; al dise&#241;o de moda no de una manera tan consciente por as&#237; decirlo.</p><p><strong>Alberto Bustamante: </strong>El &#225;lbum de <em>Cocktail</em> fue un parteaguas en mi gusto musical porque se me hace una especie de t&#243;tem en la electr&#243;nica mexicana, y me parece muy interesante lo que sucede con la banda y tus letras y las canciones cuando pasan de <em>Cocktail</em> al disco de <em>Dulce Beat</em>. Porque <em>Cocktail</em> es muy al inicio de los dosmiles y es como muy experimental y vanguardista, en el sentido en que hay un chingo de paisajes sonoros. Inclusive ahorita que lo estaba escuchando de nuevo, el disco es un bucle perfecto, que empieza y termina con el mismo paisaje. Me gusta tu interpretaci&#243;n y hay incluso unos samples de no s&#233; qu&#233; pel&#237;cula es en franc&#233;s&#8230; <strong>Denisse Guerrero: </strong>No puedo recordar ahorita el nombre de la pel&#237;cula, eso lo hizo Edgar, el tecladista. Ahorita que mencionas la m&#250;sica electr&#243;nica, cuando yo comenc&#233; era la &#233;poca del grunge, de la m&#250;sica alternativa. Entonces estaba con muchos grupos de rock y recuerdo que me costaba mucho trabajo escuchar mi voz porque estaban las guitarras, estaba la bater&#237;a y se met&#237;a todo. A finales de los noventas comenc&#233; a escuchar artistas como Bjork, Portishead y Air. Despu&#233;s llegu&#233; a Guadalajara y ah&#237; descubr&#237; todo este movimiento de fiestas de m&#250;sica electr&#243;nica y me di cuenta que como cantante cuando haces m&#250;sica electr&#243;nica tienes un campo m&#225;s amplio y puedes mezclar diferentes g&#233;neros; en esa &#233;poca estaban el drum and bass, el house&#8230; </p>

They make corridos verdes, lumbre music, paeans to weed and stoners and the business that grows out of enjoying God&#8217;s green gift. Fittingly, they are agreeable and optimistic. Speaking to Alex Guerra and Ram&#243;n Ruiz, I am struck by their jovial presence and their affinity for all things having to do with Mexican music. They drop cool knowledge of deep cut accordion players, styles, and carry about them an overall sense of gratitude for their place in the canon of norte&#241;o and regional. Any of my attempts to rib them into competitiveness or gossip fall flat against their palpable appreciation for the genre and all of its varied permutations and mini epochs. With over a decade of artistry under their belt, the freshness of their attitude is inspiring to me, I see why the Cali potheads have proven to have a staying power and ubiquity that escapes lots of other artists. Like a perfectly timed hit of sativa before a cruise with the homies, their music fits perfectly the landscape and mythologies of the sunshine state. Legado 7 are worthy torch bearers of the lifestyle, with more than a few stone cold classics under their belt and duetos with the likes of Fuerza Regida, Herencia de Patrones, and Junior H. They spoke to me about influences, opening for Intocable, and their new album which releases on 4/20 weekend.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

Tal vez es por los m&#250;sicos, en esos tiempos no hab&#237;a m&#250;sicos tan buenos la verdad, como ahora, ahora todos los morros son bien buenos para tocar. Antes era bien dif&#237;cil encontrar un acordeonero como Ram&#243;n, o un baterista como Gustavo Arellano que toca con nosotros. Esa mezcla de m&#250;sicos s&#237; estaba avanzada, la verdad. Y luego pues las letras, s&#237; fueron algo nuevo. Era como, como algo malo bien hecho.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;Y adem&#225;s del nombre de su disquera, tambi&#233;n antes dec&#237;an Lumbre corridos verdad? <strong>Alex Legado:</strong> &#161;S&#237;, Lumbre! El nombre Lumbre viene de un cliente m&#237;o que yo ten&#237;a, de un compadre m&#237;o, siempre que le tocabamos en su casa, cuando ya estaba bien borracho me dec&#237;a que quer&#237;a &#8216;pura lumbre&#8217; y lumbre eran puros corridos pesados. Entonces quer&#237;a &#8216;pura lumbre&#8217;.  Y de ah&#237; lo agarramos. Como en ingl&#233;s cuando miran algo que &#8216;ta chido dicen &#8216;oh that&#8217;s fire&#8217;. So lumbre corridos se volvi&#243; Lumbre Music.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg" width="1456" height="1784" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1784,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2712063,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/190427477?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!HJcR!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F7eb87f91-f1fc-4d7c-9d16-7a5f33498239_2048x2510.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;Sus familias tienen historia de escuchar corridos? Mis jefes poco pero los m&#225;s tradicionales, nada de Chalino, nada de narcotr&#225;fico. Puros tradicionales. M&#225;s de rancho, m&#225;s old west. S&#237; toco esto mi jefe dice, &#8220;nah esto es de pura mota&#8221;. Pero como dicen ustedes, es algo malo pero bien hecho&#8230; <strong>Alex Legado:</strong> Jaja s&#237; algo as&#237;. Pues s&#237; porque la letra y el estilo son diferentes. De lo que le damos nosotros a nuestros corridos, tal vez s&#237; tocamos uno que otro narcocorrido, pero en realidad no es el tema de Legado, &#191;sabes? El tema de Legado es m&#225;s como el estilo de Los &#193;ngeles en corrido. You know? The lifestyle of LA, put it in the music. Y ah&#237; salen los corridos verdes que los llamamos en su momento. Lumbre Music, green corridos, stuff like that.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Siento que ahorita est&#225; pegada mucha gente, como que the market es oversaturated with m&#250;sicos de corridos y regional&#8230; <strong>Alex Legado:</strong> Es como te dije hace rato, hay muchos m&#250;sicos buenos ahorita carnal, ahorita hay mucha m&#250;sica buena para consumir, y pues s&#237; est&#225; un poco lleno el buque. Pero hay mucha buena m&#250;sica, la verdad.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Simon, cuando yo quise meterme en la m&#250;sica, llegu&#233; a frooty loops, m&#225;s como hip hop style. No fue mi pensamiento inmediato meterme a aprender corridos en la guitarra. Pero ahora los morrillos aprenden, nos van a dejar atr&#225;s jaja. <strong>Alex Legado:</strong> S&#237; ahorita los morros andan con todo, cuidado, como te digo hay muchos m&#250;sicos

fijate que a nosotros nos ha tocado colaborar con bastantes artistas. Tambi&#233;n creo que Legado 7 tuvo mucho que ver en todos los duetos que ahora es muy normal que se hagan. Ya la gente hac&#237;a duetos, pero creo que nosotros pusimos otra vez de moda hacerlo con tres personas y as&#237;. Con todos esos duetos que hicimos con Los Hijos de Garc&#237;a, Fuerza Regida en su momento, Herencia de Patrones. Era como un regreso al movimiento, y creo que Legado 7 tuvo una parte esencial en ese movimiento.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Ustedes han colaborado con Kane Rodriguez y gente que ha pegado con snippets virales o covers de otros artistas aparte de sus carreras y tracks oficiales. &#191;Han ustedes encontrado manera de saber antes de tiempo lo que va pegar con la gente? O siempre es nomas la pura chanza del juego? &#191;Sienten que han aprendido a calcular el hype m&#225;s o menos bien? <strong>Alex Legado:</strong> La verdad no carnal, nunca es lo mismo. Porque si algo pega, es por que es diferente a todos, &#191;verdad? Entonces si t&#250; quisieras hacer otra canci&#243;n que suene igual, pues ya hay una igual, &#191;me entiendes? Cada cosa que se pega, es porque tiene algo diferente a todo lo que has escuchado, sino no pega bien. Sino, nom&#225;s la escuchas y dices a esa madre se escucha como aquella otra rola que ya escuche, &#191;Sabes? Entonces es nomas simplemente seguir evolucionando, seguir tratando y tratando y tratando. Eventualmente, si ya te pego una, pues quiere decir que traes algo para hacer cosas. No hay una receta, &#191;sabes? No hay una receta que existe para hacer rolas perronas y que peguen. Es simplemente no tirar la toalla, y seguirle dando, seguir evolucionando la m&#250;sica mexicana. Va creciendo y cambiando, y es nom&#225;s cuesti&#243;n de irse adaptando y no irse quedando.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Y en cuesti&#243;n de influencias, &#191;cu&#225;les son los gustos distintos que laten un chingo a los integrantes de Legado? <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> La m&#250;sica norte&#241;a pienso, de a tiro 100% norte&#241;a. Yo crec&#237; escuchando m&#250;sica norte&#241;a y tocando el acorde&#243;n desde ni&#241;o desde los once a&#241;os: Cachorros, Ramon Ayala, Invasores, Cardenales, todos ellos, esa m&#250;sica tan bonita. Siento que eso tiene que ver mucho en el estilo norte&#241;o que estamos tocando, pero es un estilo ya corridero con una letra nueva entonces, definitivamente eso nos influenci&#243; mucho en nuestro estilo.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Orale. Igual siento que el estilo de Legado son arreglos muy &#8216;tight&#8217; in the pocket, que le dicen, el bajo, los tambores y el acorde&#243;n bien amarradotes. Lleno. Igual ahorita hay un estilo muy &#8216;stripped back&#8217; muy minimal, que tambi&#233;n est&#225; pegando, pero a m&#237; siempre me caen mejor los arreglos  as&#237; m&#225;s llenos y carnudos. Siento que ustedes tienen rhythm section y un groove m&#225;s macizo. <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> Yeah. La bater&#237;a tiene mucho que ver, the drums, its key. The bass. Es un sonido m&#225;s lleno que tal vez un sierre&#241;o or so, you know? Estamos nom&#225;s tratando de modernizarlo. El estilo de Legado, adaptarnos a lo nuevo.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg" width="1456" height="1784" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1784,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2678586,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/190427477?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!T26p!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F22a0ce3b-96de-43e1-823a-2498d04b7eb9_2048x2510.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;Y es es un esfuerzo colectivo m&#225;s o menos o nom&#225;s una sola persona escribe las canciones?

Eso ya es diferente que una canci&#243;n rom&#225;ntica. Si quieres hacer una canci&#243;n de enamorados tienes que estar enamorado, &#191;verdad?

<strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> Pues sabes que estamos experimentando con sonidos nuevos, igual como dice Alex, con compositores nuevos, haciendo composiciones en conjunto, y obviamente tambi&#233;n calando con sonidos nuevos, metiendole tololoches, cosillas modernas sin perder el estilo de Legado 7. Y tambi&#233;n unos duetos que vienen all&#237; con muchachos que andan all&#237;. Nuevos talentos. <strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;C&#243;mo se sienten al integrarse con los nuevos morros? &#191;Sienten aspecto de competencia o es nomas como con que alguien le avance al g&#233;nero?<strong>Alex Legado:</strong> No, definitivamente no es competencia, yo siento que hay mucho talento. En realidad a m&#237; me da mucho orgullo mirar a todos los artistas ahorita que le est&#225;n dando super duro, el Peso, a Fuerza, al Nata. Hay mucho talento que est&#225; muy joven, y est&#225;n&#8211;como que they&#8217;re carrying the genre you know? Eso est&#225; super chingon carnal. Eso es como el sue&#241;o de todos nosotros, de todo artista mexicano que viene de M&#233;xico o que son aqu&#237; americanos tambi&#233;n, es el sue&#241;o de todos. Mirar a todos estos morros que la andan rompiendo es algo ching&#243;n, de verdad. <strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Se va cultivando&#8230; <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> Es como miras los g&#233;neros anteriores del hip hop o del reggaeton que estuvieron en alg&#250;n momento super global y ahora miras el regional y est&#225; haciendo lo mismo. Miras a artistas como Drake que quiere su entrada al regional, a esto que est&#225; pasando. Est&#225; ching&#243;n la verdad.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Sim&#243;n. &#191;Y c&#243;mo se sienten de la mass farmed weed? Ac&#225; en Texas muchos tienen bronca con la mota de los farms que venden por donde sea. &#191;Es algo que han pensado? <strong>Alex Legado:</strong> Jaja es que la buena es la de Cali, pues. No es problema ac&#225;. Ac&#225; esta la mera mata jaja.

Hasta la madre los lugares. Es con los tiempos que van cambiando, nom&#225;s uno hay que adaptarse.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Simon. Siento que hay artistas buenos que no saben, o no les interesa, promocionarse tanto como otros. Igual con que generes unas cuantas cl&#225;sicas a la gente le vale verga si posteas. Ustedes tienen unas clasiconas, &#8220;El Chinito&#8221; tiene 30M plus views.

Generar algo que dure, canciones que tienen vida afuera de uno. As players, musicians, that&#8217;s the biggest honor. <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> Gracias.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;Y qu&#233; tienen planeado ahorita para Legado? <strong>Alex Legado: </strong>Ahorita estamos trabajando en una gira con un grupo que se llama Los Dos de Tamaulipas. Entonces empezamos a trabajar en abril. Usualmente Legado siempre comienza giras en abril, por el 420. Siempre arrancamos el 20 de Abril. Este a&#241;o igual, s&#237; viene una gira con bastantes fechas brother.

Legado:</strong> Simon, we&#8217;ve made some changes on the bass and on the bajo sexto. Our drummer&#8217;s always been Gustavo Arellano. He&#8217;s been the drummer since the very beginning. It&#8217;s been us three, Gustavo, Alex, and me. Los muchachos nuevos con los que estamos trabajando, we got a young really talented bass player his name is Rodrigo, igual que el muchacho del bajo sexto, super talented musicians. <strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;Es tololoche o el&#233;ctrico? <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> Es electrico carnal. We do add tololoche to some songs. Back in the day &#8216;El Chinito&#8217; had tololoche y con este nuevo &#225;lbum we&#8217;re pushing a lot of tololoche as well. <strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez:</strong> &#191;Y de acordeon? &#191;What do you like to play? <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> A m&#237; me gusta mucho Juan Villareal, &#233;l es un &#237;dolo para m&#237;. La musiquita norte&#241;ita. <strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>Y besides the players, do you have loyalty of preference to a certain brand? <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> I&#8217;m a big fan of Dino Baffetti. I really like Baffetti. Ahorita tengo unos que se llaman Massimo. But I&#8217;ve had Gabbanellis, Hohners, you know? En lo personal yo no me dejo llevar por los looks, yo agarro un pinche acorde&#243;n y lo calo y si me gusta como se oye y como se toca that&#8217;s what I care more about.</p><p><strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>And I have to ask, anyone from Texas ya&#8217;ll call an influence or that you guys are into? Y tambi&#233;n alguien all&#237; local de su California que puedan mencionar que les guste? Mencionaron a Ram&#243;n Ayala, he got big in Reynosa, Tamaulipas and he&#8217;s originally from Monterrey but he lives in Hidalgo, TX. Pero, &#191;alguien m&#225;s? <strong>Ram&#243;n Legado:</strong> Pa&#8217; mi una inspiraci&#243;n desde ni&#241;o es un acordeonista de aqu&#237; de Los &#193;ngeles que se llama Marito Aguilar que s&#237; es muy reconocido. Y de Texas un grupo viejo que se llama Los Tesoros de Samuel Ramos, they&#8217;re from Texas as well. Un grupazo. El Reto&#241;o tambi&#233;n, they&#8217;re super dope. <strong>Eric Hern&#225;ndez: </strong>&#191;Han llegado a conocer algunos de sus h&#233;roes? <strong>Alex Legado: </strong>Pues s&#237;, nos hemos topado con todo tipos de artistas. Algo super ching&#243;n fue tocar con Intocable. Nos invitaron a un evento through one of our friends que se llama Ron que trabajaba con ellos. Dijo &#8216;We&#8217;re looking for a band to open up for Intocable.&#8217; Y pos nosotros como damnn that&#8217;s not totally our crowd you know? Como fuck, we felt a little iffy about the situation. Pero pues siendo fans, fue super ching&#243;n. We went and played some corridos and I think the people were like &#8216;okay this is cool&#8217; pero tambien a little tripped out. Tambi&#233;n tocamos unas norte&#241;as viejitas all&#237; y pos ya nos quedamos a ver a Intocable tocar. Super chingona esa experiencia. Muchas experiencias as&#237;.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

name is Luna Glaubitz Jimenez, I grew up in the border city of Tijuana where the beach is known as Playas. I am a transdisciplinary artist that is going to art school but I am a dj, a blogger and a writer (at the moment). I found out about Cynthia magazine through the interview Ed Maverick did interviewing Juan Cirerol. I remember the pictures showing up in my ig feed and sparking something within me. And then my friend <a href="https://www.instagram.com/raullaborinn/">Raul</a> invited me to write something for them months later.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

your personal style?</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/missivysatana/">Ivy Satana</a>. My dj teacher/mentor/friend. I met her through facebook circa 2015 after hearing about her from my mom , she had gone to a party and she was the DJ for it. I wanted to add Ivy on facebook so my mom dmed her and asked if she was okay with adding her 13 year old daughter on facebook and only if she wanted to and Ivy said yes because we liked the same things (vintage things, glitter, sailor moon, harajuku fashion, punk rock, music), We quickly turned into internet friends, her being like 15 years older than me, turned into a beautiful real friendship. I copied my first pin/battle jacket from her, and when I was finally 15 we met at a cultural event where she djed with vinyls from a music figure that had passed away and her and other djs played music from his collection to honor him. We don&#8217;t dress the same, but for sure, meeting a girly, pink anime loving girl from the north, in a city where everyone is niurro (new wave/new romantic) and dresses in rocker style clothes, Ivy was a fresh breath of air. I love her to death and we DJ together from time to time.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

thing you&#8217;ve ever eaten in Tijuana?</strong></p><p>Most recently, I went to a tianguis, and because I was starving, I ate at a stand where I had never eaten before trying to be adventurous. But it was a bad idea. They sold tacos de canasta y tacos de cabeza. First, I ordered 2 canasta and one campechano, and they gave me two cabeza and one canasta. The cabeza was soggy, greasy, and hard to swallow. The salsa they put on it was the most awful unflavored spicy sauce I&#8217;ve ever had and I couldn&#8217;t keep eating, I felt the food coming back up my throat. When I tried to eat the canasta, it wasn&#8217;t buttery or soft as a usual canasta taco, it was kind of dry and wet  at the same time and the filling had that same greasy tallow taste that just was unpleasant. I left half of the tacos bitten in my plate and got off to pay. My little sister was with me and when I stood up she said &#8220;are you leaving without paying?&#8221; and I was just about to pay. Embarrassing and bad experience. 3/10. Their horchata was okay.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

And I approach it sober. No drinks, no drugs. Just me, water, a coke sometimes, and my music library. If no one is dancing, I&#8217;m failing at my job. The Disco Jockey should make the people around him or her make the attendees want to dance and get to know the new tunes you&#8217;re serving them.

People can&#8217;t really go analog with everything having to be in our phones now. But reading there is more calm&#8230; unless they ruin the algorithm.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg" width="1456" height="1092" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1092,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:196830,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188584816?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!gy25!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4d89eb02-4813-48c3-9ce1-5bbf218982a7_1600x1200.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>On IG you showed us your iPod jacket, do you have an iPod?</strong></p><p>I do! It has mostly the music from my first party-official dj sets which were 3 years ago. You will not find anything tumbado there. It&#8217;s mostly kpop, trip-hop, dance and drum n bass. But when I bought it had music on it, which were like top 100 corridos and banda and boleros. I got it at a tianguis. I wasn&#8217;t planning on deleting everything but once I connected it to my computer I couldn&#8217;t modify the files so I just deleted and reseted the whole thing and synced to my itunes. Which is a bummer. But maybe soon I&#8217;ll make my tumbado playlist and add it there. A more curated version for me.

Vogue</a> and Vice magazine are the ones I grew up reading. Vice magazine less than the other, I consumed their online media more in Highschool after they had gone out of print, but I read it a couple of times when I was a kid. One of my favorite magazine articles I&#8217;ve ever read is an interview in Giant Robot for Yoshitomo Nara. And he admits he became an artist because he pervertedly went to naked drawing class but actually enjoyed it. And online, there&#8217;s an article called &lt; <a href="https://www.salon.com/2016/10/08/my-ghost-world-years-confessions-of-a-teenage-aol-catfisher/">My &#8220;Ghost World&#8221; years: Confessions of a teenage AOL catfisher</a> &gt;. I found it on pinterest, looking for images of my favorite movie, Ghost World (2001) and found myself just sobbing in front of my laptop at the end.</p><p><strong>You are a bloguera. What does this mean to you, and what do you think that term connotates for you in Mexico? What are a few Mexican blogueros u would reccomend?</strong></p><p>Yes, I am a blogger! I did not use a blog platform for the longest time but treated my instagram as the space to blog and share with my community. It has now gotten bigger now that I am DJ. People follow me to know when the next event is but seem to stay for the curas and my crazy daily posting. I love posting, I have always loved the act of sharing something and getting online feedback. It means a way of connecting with others beyond borders. This term is now expired in Mexico I think. Blogging had a peak in the early 2010&#8217;s and then with social media it slowly faded and died. But there&#8217;s still people standing strong and blog from whatever platform they can. Being an influencer does not make you a blogger in my opinion. Blogging is more information, text and image based, than curating a &#8220;vibe&#8221; or a &#8220;persona&#8221; through looks and content. But I might be wrong, idk.</p><p>I recommend my favorite Spanish blog called <a href="https://taxitj.blogspot.com/">taxitj</a> in blogspot by my favorite writer atm <a href="https://carolinamonraz.substack.com/p/manifiesto-por-una-literatura-tumbada?utm_source=%2Fsearch%2FCarolina%2520Monraz&amp;utm_medium=reader2">Carolina Monraz</a>. And deceased and my number one influence, <a href="https://www.vice.com/es/article/tijuana-ciudad-de-fanzines/">Rafa Saavedra</a>. I would recommend my own substack that I just started called <a href="https://belaloona.substack.com/">NEOPOPBABYSM</a>. And my favorite blog/ site since forever,is <a href="https://ita.toys/">ita.toys</a> . She&#8217;s a j-fashion graphic designer with a super cool website, but I&#8217;m not sure if she&#8217;s Mexican! I know she speaks Spanish tho.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Juan Cirerol y Ed Maverick: Una Conversación Pendiente]]></title><description><![CDATA[Todo

esa descripci&#243;n. El cachanilla pas&#243; por la Ciudad de M&#233;xico entre 2010 y 2017, abriendo una brecha musical desde el noroeste mexicano que ser&#237;a elemental para los artistas que le siguieron. Cirerol transita entre el rock y la m&#250;sica regional sin aparente esfuerzo, y enraizado en ambos g&#233;neros, es famoso por grabar discos completos en una sola toma. Fue en el 2012&#8211;a&#241;o en que concluy&#243; el calendario maya, implicando el supuesto fin de los tiempos&#8211;que Juan Cirerol ofrend&#243; 13 canciones al Mictl&#225;n, el inframundo de los nahuas. No podemos confirmar qu&#233; efecto tuvo esta Ofrenda al Mictl&#225;n en t&#233;rminos c&#243;smicos, sin embargo, este &#225;lbum lo consolid&#243; como un m&#250;sico de m&#250;sicos. Enrique Bunbury lo incluy&#243; en su lista de los mejores discos del 2012, lo cual llev&#243; a que Andr&#233;s Calamaro invitara a Cirerol a interpretar &#8220;Metanfeta&#8221; con &#233;l en el escenario de su concierto junto a Bunbury en Ciudad de M&#233;xico, mismo concierto en el cual Cirerol fue telonero. En sus propias palabras: &#8220;Me toc&#243; la suerte, al igual que a Miguel y Miguel, de agarrar trabajo, de llamar la atenci&#243;n de m&#250;sicos muy buenos y esos mismos m&#250;sicos iban de boca en boca&#8221;. Uno de los m&#250;sicos que ha continuado esparciendo su legado hacia las generaciones m&#225;s j&#243;venes es Ed Maverick, quien abiertamente expresa la gran influencia que Juan Cirerol tuvo en &#233;l. Pero Maverick, quien recientemente se autoproclam&#243; &#8220;poeta de rancho&#8221;, ha alcanzado sus propios reconocimientos a lo largo de su carrera. En el a&#241;o 2018 &#8211;cuando ten&#237;a 17 a&#241;os&#8211; public&#243; &#8220;Fuentes de Ortiz&#8221;, que ha sido homenajeada por Peso Pluma, Natanael Cano, Kenia Os y Juli&#243;n &#193;lvarez, entre muchos m&#225;s. Aunque actualmente tiene 23 a&#241;os, su grave voz y su l&#237;rica profunda denotan una madurez que excede su temprana edad. Recientemente fund&#243; su estudio de producci&#243;n hoy es un buen d&#237;a en su ciudad natal, Delicias, Chihuahua. Este estudio tiene la intenci&#243;n de producir talentos locales para &#8220;quitarles la molestia a los pr&#243;ximos artistas de tener que ir hasta&#8221; la Ciudad de M&#233;xico, contribuyendo, en la medida de lo posible, a la descentralizaci&#243;n de la cultura. Para esta entrevista, Ed Maverick viaj&#243; junto a nuestro fot&#243;grafo Patricio Malag&#243;n a Mexicali, donde se reunieron con Juan Cirerol. Agarrando la cura entre cervezas y cigarros, los m&#250;sicos platicaron sobre sus experiencias y anhelos en com&#250;n.</p><p><strong>Juan Cirerol:</strong> Hay una canci&#243;n de Andr&#233;s Calamaro que se llama &#8220;Son las nueve&#8221;, y habla del artesano de canciones. Habemos m&#250;sicos que utilizamos esa madre. Y entonces como artesano de canciones mi recompensa fueron las canciones despu&#233;s de esas noches en el infierno. M&#225;s o menos de eso trata la rola. Y es lo que le comento a mi mam&#225;. Mi mam&#225; no me rega&#241;&#243;, no me intervinieron. </p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor"

Es que ten&#237;a... Andaba en un pinche episodio depresivo el a&#241;o pasado y pues tra&#237;a como todo el peso de la fama, ese desmadre y la verga. Cosas bien raras de la vida, Chido vivir de la m&#250;sica, es el sue&#241;o. Pero no sabemos c&#243;mo se ve, c&#243;mo se siente o c&#243;mo es esa cosa, c&#243;mo es ese estilo de vida. Lo podemos ver en la tele, pero como que no est&#225; toda la info tras bambalinas. Pues no sabemos c&#243;mo es llegar a las oficinas de Universal y como es sentarte ah&#237; y que te pongan esa madre en frente y la lees. Y eso est&#225; bien loco. &#191;C&#243;mo fue tu primera llegada? Yo he visto un chingo de videos, por ejemplo, el especial este de Canal 11. Y entrevistas que te hacen cuando est&#225;s all&#225; viviendo en Iztacalco y no s&#233;, se me hace bien interesante pensar c&#243;mo es tu experiencia... Porque al final, t&#250; ya estabas en Ciudad de M&#233;xico haciendo todo este pedo y yo ten&#237;a como diez a&#241;os, yo ni siquiera sab&#237;a que exist&#237;a la m&#250;sica independiente.

No s&#233; c&#243;mo te autopercibes a ti, pero al menos yo s&#237; te veo apegado a la realidad en cierto punto. Como todo humano, caemos en ilusiones. Cuando empec&#233; con mi proyecto muy r&#225;pido le empez&#243; a ir chido y de pronto ya era aceptado socialmente. Antes era este vil mortal y de la nada ya no lo era.

Yo por eso valoro mucho las interacciones con los m&#250;sicos que se me presentan. Porque s&#237;, pas&#233; much&#237;simo tiempo aislado. Entonces mi autopercepci&#243;n se bas&#243; en la fantas&#237;a de la fama. Yo ve&#237;a esta iron&#237;a de que s&#237; me conoce much&#237;sima gente. Y es muy raro porque mis n&#250;meros son muy peque&#241;os o relativamente. Pero a lo largo de mi carrera conoc&#237; mucha gente... Yo creo por el apellido, porque el apellido es muy f&#225;cil que se te quede. Entonces la gente s&#237; me percibe como alguien famoso. Es raro porque como yo lo digo a veces, es fama con pobreza. No lo digo por quejarme. Me refiero a que es un tipo de fama que no se compagina con el poder adquisitivo. O sea, mi poder adquisitivo es bajo, como el de un profesional normal. Como cualquier buen mec&#225;nico. Tengo los ingresos de un buen mec&#225;nico o de un t&#233;cnico de refrigeraci&#243;n. Estoy ac&#225; entre los dos mundos. Est&#225; lococh&#243;n eso. Porque si yo tuviera la feria como para ser famoso, a lo mejor ya estar&#237;a m&#225;s sano, &#191;no? Entonces, as&#237; me autopercibo, &#191;no? Finalmente logr&#233; pasar la fantas&#237;a de la fama y luego aterric&#233; mach&#237;n. Cinco a&#241;os chambeando as&#237; en otras cosas. Aterric&#233; en que soy una persona normal, que a todos les val&#237;a si estaba chambeando. Entonces me ayud&#243; mucho trabajar en otra cosa, a valorar los boletos de los fans. Un fan se batalla un chingo en ganarse el boleto de 300 o 400 varos. Es buena parte del sueldo de una persona. Empiezas a valorar, y entonces ya cuando llego a tocar, llego en ese pat&#237;n, y digo: &#8220;que chido, me siento agradecido&#8221;.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

2010 al 2017. Entonces, s&#237;, en la Ciudad de M&#233;xico si no est&#225;s preparado para la gente que te encuentras, la competencia es muy dura. Me llegu&#233; a encontrar artistas... Yo no soy competitivo. Aunque s&#237; tiraba una onda, como de destrucci&#243;n y todo, pero como con la ternura de no ser competitivo. En la Ciudad de M&#233;xico te encuentras con gente que lamentablemente quiere llegar a ponerse al t&#250; por t&#250; y a ver qui&#233;n la tiene m&#225;s grande. Es complicado porque ya muchos a&#241;os despu&#233;s, cuando empec&#233; a trabajar en refrigeraci&#243;n industrial, me di cuenta que hab&#237;a gente que iba a querer competir conmigo y me sent&#237; muy desalentado porque dije &#8220;puta, o sea, en todos lados van a querer competir&#8221;, y yo cuando compito soy as&#237; de que desgarrado pues. Porque no me gusta. Entonces soy as&#237; como de que &#8220;te voy a hacer mierda&#8221;, &#191;sabes? Al grado de la violencia. Me pon&#237;a de esa manera porque yo no soy competitivo. Entonces es una iron&#237;a que al no ser competitivo, cuando me encuentro entre gente que trae una onda muy complicada me pongo as&#237;. Porque neta yo soy bien cero pedos, como tengo un talento grande, y lo reconozco, entonces yo no tengo pedos. Yo gano mi lana y me voy a mi casa a drogarme, &#191;sabes? Es lo &#250;nico que yo quer&#237;a, wey. Pero ya con la mente d&#233;bil, debilitada por la droga, llegaba a estos &#225;mbitos en los que la gente pues tiene una intenci&#243;n de sobresalir y entonces se la quieren medir conmigo, ah&#237; es cuando yo me pon&#237;a violento. Pero bueno, a lo que quiero llegar es que la Ciudad de M&#233;xico a m&#237; se me hace un lugar muy noble, que la gente es muy a toda madre en esencia. Desde que llegu&#233; en el 2009, era gente muy noble, muy c&#225;lida. Muy culta. &#191;No? Para m&#237; era de ensue&#241;o antes. Y lo sigue siendo ahorita que voy. Acabo de volver hace dos d&#237;as. Es un lugar de ensue&#241;o para m&#237;. La Ciudad de M&#233;xico tiene una magia muy interesante. &#191;T&#250; que sientes de eso Ed? </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg" width="1456" height="2184" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/e9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:2184,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2280900,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188987226?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atEH!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe9921fa6-5fca-477a-9ec1-5f5b93868b1a_2000x3000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Ed Maverick:</strong> Pues a ver, es que yo, la neta soy de una ciudad muy chiquita. Aqu&#237;, por ejemplo, t&#250; puedes estar m&#225;s en la frontera y estar m&#225;s abierto a ciertas situaciones sociales, &#191;no? M&#237;nimo tienen malls o cosas as&#237;. Yo estoy en una ciudad bien chiquita, wey, o sea, no hay esas cosas. Lo que se hace los fines de semana es pistear, pistear y pistear, hasta que uno crece y solamente ha hecho eso y trabajar. Y entonces caigo a la ciudad y para m&#237; s&#237; es un deslumbre. Siempre digo que es como ir a Hollywood, pero en vez de que se haga American Pie o pel&#237;culas as&#237;, en la Ciudad de M&#233;xico hacen La rosa de Guadalupe. Topas lugares s&#250;per familiares por la tele. Para m&#237; s&#237; es como muy cerca, entonces me siento m&#225;s ajeno. Y en la cuesti&#243;n de la industria, pues estoy en ese mismo trip, &#191;sabes? O sea, al menos yo s&#237; soy m&#225;s inocente. Si se quer&#237;an pasar de verga conmigo, pues no me importaba. Ahorita ya estoy un poco m&#225;s en m&#237;, en mi firmeza de qui&#233;n soy, qu&#233; me interesa y qu&#233; no. Hasta con compas que ten&#237;a, hab&#237;a una pesadez de la verga y pues yo lo dejaba pasar. Y no era como competir conmigo, no era competitivo, m&#225;s bien en mi caso era un narcisismo involuntario. Todo el mundo te est&#225; buscando todo el tiempo y todo el tiempo est&#225;s rodeado de gente que te est&#225; pidiendo cosas. Y entonces como que se vuelve un performance de los personajes. No es tanto una conversaci&#243;n de qui&#233;nes somos, sino de qu&#233; significamos, y se vuelve una pinche burbuja todo el tiempo de far&#225;ndula, independientemente de si es un nicho en el que est&#225;s o de si est&#225;s en las big leagues. Porque a m&#237; me toc&#243; siempre estar en las dos y me gust&#243; mucho estar en las dos. Me gust&#243; m&#225;s estar en el nicho, la neta, porque es donde justo se mantiene m&#225;s esta realidad, de saber qui&#233;nes somos en vez de qu&#233; significamos. Y en el otro lado, pues era m&#225;s fr&#237;o el pedo todo el tiempo. Y est&#225; chido porque hay gente que s&#237; empata con eso y por eso lo respeto y no soy tan absoluto al decir que no significa nada, porque para alguna gente s&#237; significa algo, pero es m&#225;s capitalista y eso a m&#237; no me llena la neta. </p><p><strong>Juan Cirerol:</strong> S&#237;, de hecho yo pensaba mucho en ti, no seguido, pero s&#237; de vez en cuando, al igual que como pienso en ciertos actores que sigo, inclusive hasta en Alfredo Adame. De repente voy en el carro y digo pobrecito cabr&#243;n, deber&#237;amos internarlo. Me va a llegar a mentar la madre, &#191;no? Pero bueno, cuando empec&#233; a ver que las redes sociales estaban abriendo, cada vez m&#225;s, la vida privada de las personas, o digamos estos peque&#241;os detalles del pensamiento de la gente que se escapan a trav&#233;s de un podcast de una hora. Que tienen a la persona ah&#237; sacando todo su inconsciente, &#191;sabes? Tras, tras, tras, tras. Est&#225; bien loca la terapia que te meten los podcast porque sacas tu inconsciente. Es bien peligroso eso. Luego de ah&#237; hacen los reels y los tiktoks. Pero va a quedar la sesi&#243;n completa, &#191;sabes? Entonces por eso yo la pienso mach&#237;n en los podcasts, me da mucho miedo ir a un podcast, porque digo me van a terapiar todo el inconsciente. Cuando te conoc&#237; te vi como una persona con mucha conciencia, de mucha benevolencia consigo mismo y con las personas y de una entereza. De unos valores muy bonitos. Mucha gente cuando trabajaba en la f&#225;brica barriendo, me dec&#237;a &#8220;wacha, el Ed Maverick te est&#225; copiando&#8221; y yo les dec&#237;a &#8220;no, as&#237; se hace la m&#250;sica&#8221;. Yo le estoy copiando a Johnny Cash y nadie se da cuenta porque s&#233; c&#243;mo copiar. Yo s&#233; c&#243;mo se debe copiar para que nadie se d&#233; cuenta que est&#225;s copiando. Luego agarro corridos que la gente muchos a&#241;os piensa que yo compuse, como &#8220;Se vale so&#241;ar&#8221;. Haces tuya la canci&#243;n de cierta manera. Entonces me sent&#237; muy orgulloso la verdad de que el Maverick me mencionaba en sus entrevistas porque yo me sent&#237;a ac&#225;, como el Obi-Wan Kenobi, as&#237; como en esp&#237;ritu. Yo estaba barriendo una f&#225;brica, as&#237; como un viej&#243;n. Yo me sent&#237;a orgulloso y me acuerdo una vez que estaba con la mota, o sea con la mota para barrer, y estaba barriendo ac&#225; y me acuerdo que estaba escuchando tu canci&#243;n y pensaba: &#8220;&#161;Qu&#233; perr&#243;n!&#8221; Y llegaba uno de los ingenieros de producci&#243;n y me dec&#237;a: &#8220;wey te rob&#243;&#8221;. Y yo as&#237; de: &#8220;No, carnal, es que as&#237; se hace la m&#250;sica&#8221;. Te influencias en un m&#250;sico, sacas un corte de lo que te gusta y luego lo haces tuyo. Es as&#237;. Y entonces les explicaba y ya comenzaban a entender. Me sent&#237; muy contento de al menos estar relacionado con artistas que practican la conciencia, inclusive a lo mejor qui&#233;n sabe si ya lo hac&#237;as desde antes de haber hecho el Mix pa&#8217; llorar en tu cuarto. O sea, si habr&#225;s pensado o si lo habr&#225;s premeditado de tirar esta consigna de conciencia. No necesitas tomarte una foto conmigo. No necesito ser complaciente con el p&#250;blico. No, escucha la rola. Si te gusta, v&#237;brala ching&#243;n. Es algo que entiendo perfectamente, yo nunca he negado una foto porque yo todav&#237;a estoy en la etapa de obrero de la canci&#243;n, como siempre me supe. Yo soy muy admirador de Miguel y Miguel, que eran dos m&#250;sicos que ven&#237;an a tocar a tu sala. Entonces esa fue mi escuela y pude ver a Miguel Montoya cantar en Culiac&#225;n. Mi escuela fue como ser el obrero de la rola que te va a tocar una rola gratis si se lo pides. Esa era mi onda. Yo todav&#237;a tocaba de a gratis. De a gratis en donde fuera. Y esa es la misma onda si ahorita me dicen. Esa ha sido mi perspectiva de conciencia, osea, la humildad. Eso es lo que podr&#237;a comentar en general tambi&#233;n pegando con el comentario de la Ciudad de M&#233;xico. Es el epicentro de las artes ac&#225; en M&#233;xico, es un lugar muy bonito y todos aquellos que lleguen a competir pues se les exhorta, si tienes talento la cuajas. Y hablaba con otro compa de que si eres medio mamador pues vas a poder ser muy popular, pero tu m&#250;sica no va a ser tan buena, &#191;sabes? Como lo que comentabas de las personas que est&#225;n como en constante performance, &#191;no? S&#237; las hay. S&#237; las hay. Pero yo creo que hay que compadecerlos y ayudarlos a que realmente hagan esto que yo siento y que creo es desde adentro. Es un trabajo interior de sacar pa&#8217; afuera. Qui&#233;n sabe si haya una diferencia entre ser mamador o no serlo. O sea, yo no siento que sea un mamador como tal. Hay muchos en el DF y en todos lados. Pero nunca he sido yo el encargado de criticar. O sea, a pesar de haber sido el principal critic&#243;n, yo estaba en mi performance de ser enfadoso, de ser chico malo y pues, &#191;pa&#8217; qu&#233;? Porque no me ha dado nada de lana. No me ha dado nada de lana ser enfadoso. O sea, ah&#237; est&#225; Donald Trump, o ah&#237; est&#225; Alfredo Adame. A Alfredo Adame yo pudiera abrazarlo y decirle: &#8220;carnal&#8221;. Le caer&#237;a bien, porque yo no le estar&#237;a diciendo nada de lo que le han dicho. Le dir&#237;a: &#8220;wey c&#225;ele, si&#233;ntate a comer algo&#8221;. O sea, tranquilo. A una persona que est&#225; tan adolorida como Alfredo Adame hay que abrazarla. Bueno, a m&#237; me ha abrazado la gente, &#191;sabes? La gente me abraza y me cobija consigo porque yo me reconozco como una persona que tengo problemas psicol&#243;gicos. Entonces, yo agradezco mucho que las personas me apapachen. Que realmente me comprendan, que me tengan empat&#237;a. Lo digo por mi m&#225;nager Edwin, por su novia Bianca, por mi mam&#225;, mi familia, amigos. A veces dudo un poco de mi poder art&#237;stico, o sea del poder, de lo que t&#250; puedes exteriorizar y hacer que suceda algo en el p&#250;blico. Porque hay artistas que lamentablemente, por m&#225;s que lo intentan, no logran conectar. Entonces lo que me queda claro es que s&#237; he logrado conectar con el p&#250;blico. Me siento orgulloso de que ac&#225; en el noroeste podamos, quiz&#225;s en una medida muy peque&#241;ita, inyectar algo de lo que traemos de ac&#225;, que es algo muy similar. O sea que la gente de Chihuahua y de aqu&#237; Baja California, Sonora, Sinaloa, son muy similares, al igual que la gente de Coahuila, Nuevo Le&#243;n o Tamaulipas, &#191;sabes? O sea, son gente norte&#241;a de all&#225; y nosotros somos gente norte&#241;a de ac&#225;. Y luego Ciudad de M&#233;xico, El Baj&#237;o y Puebla parecen otro pa&#237;s. Ah&#237; est&#225; la multiculturalidad de M&#233;xico. Entonces s&#237; hay una frontera muy importante entre lo que hacemos ac&#225; y mandamos pa&#8217; all&#225;, porque lo tenemos que mandar pa&#8217; all&#225; pa&#8217; que rebote hacia otro lado. O sea, lo que se le respeta mucho a M&#233;xico, a la Ciudad de M&#233;xico, es eso que tiene la capital, el empuje. Del centro empujas pa&#8217; todos lados. Y claro, porque yo c&#243;mo me iba a imaginar que yo te lograba conocer si no me iba para all&#225;, &#191;no? O sea, ahora t&#250; conoces mi m&#250;sica gracias a que yo me fui en el 2009 y estuve interactuando con mucha gente all&#225;, que luego me hizo famosos dentro de la ciudad, &#191;no? </p><div

S&#237; llevamos todo para all&#225;, pero tambi&#233;n estamos haciendo cosas chidas desde la base, &#191;no? Yo siento que eso es parte del futuro de la cultura, al menos en M&#233;xico. Y no s&#233; tambi&#233;n t&#250; que piensas al respecto, porque tambi&#233;n creo que est&#225; bien chido jalar desde la casa. Yo siento que s&#237; es bueno ir a la Ciudad de M&#233;xico ahorita que tenemos esa pregunta en el sentido de negocio. Es perfecto. Se arma. Y lo digo en mi experiencia personal, pero tambi&#233;n veo que concuerda con esas experiencias de otra gente. Pero la verdad si est&#225; pesado tener que caer justamente al Hollywood mexa para rebotar todas las cosas. Y no tiene nada de malo en el sentido territorial, porque no se trata de eso, sino en el pedo de que las oportunidades pudieran estar repartidas hacia afuera o hacia todos lados, en vez de estar concentradas en un centro. Yo siento por mi parte, que fuera de mi proyecto puedo hacer cosas que permeen y que puedan apoyar, y que puedan ser como esa misma cadenita que alguien m&#225;s hizo conmigo. La persona que grab&#243; mi primer disco, no me cobr&#243; nada m&#225;s que las cheves y los cigarros, y a veces hasta me andaba prestando para pagar los camiones para ir a Delicias. Y ahora que tengo la capacidad y el poder adquisitivo, contin&#250;o con esa cadenita con otra banda que tambi&#233;n est&#225; tratando de cumplir su sue&#241;o, porque s&#233; que eso funcion&#243; y porque s&#233; que si lo hago yo tambi&#233;n va a funcionar. Y de eso se trata. Y ya no es tanto como cargar un estandarte de que vamos a revolucionar todo y vamos a hacer que se descentralice. Es algo colateral. Es una consecuencia del instinto, de seguir el sue&#241;o de los otros, de la empat&#237;a tambi&#233;n, de la conciencia y de saber que no somos y no est&#225;n los dem&#225;s. Esa es la manera en la que sacamos esa rachita justamente para quitarles la molestia a los pr&#243;ximos artistas de tener que ir hasta all&#225;, &#191;no? Y pero tambi&#233;n est&#225; esta otra parte de las esencias, de las ideas y de las cosas, de la cosa que est&#225; como grande y predominando. Y siempre ha sido as&#237;. Yo siento que Chihuahua, Hermosillo, Tijuana, Mexicali, Culiac&#225;n, tienen una energ&#237;a espec&#237;fica y que tiene que ver con lo sociopol&#237;tico o lo econ&#243;mico tambi&#233;n de las ciudades en las que vivimos. Pero no solo es crear oportunidades, porque no solo se trata de eso. Siento tambi&#233;n que son las ideas, y es lo que t&#250; dec&#237;as ahorita, o sea, t&#250; has influenciado tambi&#233;n en la cuesti&#243;n de ideas. No todos necesitamos ser agentes de la industria para poder dar algo &#191;sabes? Al final yo escuch&#233;, La ofrenda al Mictl&#225;n, y ah&#237; fue como... Y vi tus shows en vivo y entrevistas y dem&#225;s, y era como oye, &#8220;a ese wey le vale verga&#8221;, y no en ese sentido necesariamente como en efecto &#8220;me vale verga&#8221;. No en ese sentido irresponsable de plano, no importa eso. M&#225;s en el sentido de estar aterrizado y mostrar la realidad de uno mismo. Y yo nunca hab&#237;a visto eso en nadie. Si acaso en artistas de antes, pero por el hecho de que eran como super famosos, de todos modos se ve&#237;a como una cosa ah&#237; s&#250;per m&#237;stica y contigo fue como de que neta s&#237; podemos ser nosotros mismos all&#225; afuera y no necesariamente tenemos que estar tripeando toda nuestra vida atr&#225;s del escenario.</p><p><strong>Juan Cirerol:</strong> La primera disquera que tuvimos se llam&#243; Vale Vergas Discos mencionada por Brozo. Gracias a Dios que nos mencionaron en Brozo, y luego dijo no se les vaya a antojar. Te juro que yo nunca tuve que hacer el performance. O sea, yo siempre llegu&#233; drogado, y sano, as&#237; como &#8220;Buenas tardes, ya soy m&#250;sico y no te necesit&#233;&#8221;. O sea, s&#237; era muy osado, &#191;sabes? Yo actualmente no pertenezco a la escena del DF. Yo nom&#225;s llego y digo &#8220;dame tu dinero, y ya me voy&#8221;. Soy como un tej&#243;n que llega y le roba la comida a los gatos de tu casa, &#191;sabes? Instalamos la carpa y nos vamos. Y eso es parte de la marca del noroeste. Obviamente no pude llegar a los esquemas m&#225;s altos de la industria porque me pusieron un alto. Me dijeron t&#250; de aqu&#237; no pasas, no s&#233; qui&#233;n fue. No me gusta pelear solo con amigos imaginarios, porque hasta ahorita todos mis amigos, toda la gente me quiere un chingo, nada m&#225;s que dicen &#8220;cuidado con Juan, no vaya a andar mal&#8221;, &#191;sabes? Entonces como no ando mal. O sea, por eso se me hizo este pinche vicio personal, o sea, defecto de car&#225;cter de que &#8220;hola, te anuncio que estoy bien, &#191;podemos trabajar?&#8221;. Y lo he hecho con gente de aqu&#237; o gente de all&#225;, se me hizo un vicio. Conlleva sus consecuencias el llegar como pirata con ron a querer cosas que no te pertenecen. &#8220;Juan Cirerol irrumpe&#8221; se mencionaba en las notas viejas. Y una vez estaba bien pegado en la casa y me clav&#233; con esa palabra: &#8220;irrumpe&#8221;. Estoy irrumpiendo. Y me doli&#243; mucho. Estaba en mi casa de Iztacalco. Realmente estaba preocupado porque &#8220;irrumpo&#8221;. &#191;Pero por qu&#233; irrumpo? Y neta me causaba un escalofr&#237;o en el pecho y dec&#237;a, si yo nom&#225;s quiero hacerme el payaso. Porque yo era un payaso, &#191;sabes?  </p><p><strong>Patricio Malag&#243;n</strong> Creo que es un poco a lo que me refer&#237;a, no tanto para tirarle hate a la Ciudad de M&#233;xico. Yo tambi&#233;n la quiero mucho pero ah&#237; hay una cosa como de querer limpiar todo... Y bueno, no est&#225; mal irrumpir. O sea, no est&#225; mal que llegues t&#250; con qui&#233;n eres t&#250; a tocar y a hacer eso, est&#225; chido. No tendr&#237;a por qu&#233; estar mal si eres el m&#250;sico maldito, el m&#250;sico vanguardista eres t&#250;, &#191;sabes? Y eso est&#225; chido y est&#225;s trayendo todo lo que vives ac&#225; y todo lo que es ac&#225;. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg" width="1456" height="2184" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/df7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:2184,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:2385069,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188987226?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!yL-K!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdf7d6dde-8c2a-4db7-991b-fbeb9dfd4d66_2000x3000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Juan Cirerol:</strong> La maldad que a m&#237; me gusta profesar es como una maldad chistosa, &#191;sabes? O sea, como de chiste perform&#225;tico, es como c&#243;mica. Es una rutina c&#243;mica, wey. &#191;Sabes? Todos se creyeron la rutina c&#243;mica de Paco Stanley con Mayito Bezares. Era una rutina c&#243;mica, wey. O sea, ese wey neta no humillaba al cabr&#243;n. Pero es que el arte, irrumpe en la realidad. Hay que tener mucho cuidado porque el arte transforma la realidad. Entonces la esposa de Mayito realmente dec&#237;a: &#8220;Deja a este cabr&#243;n porque nada m&#225;s se est&#225; burlando de ti&#8221;. Y es como wey, somos dos putos comediantes, &#191;sabes? Y Mayito sigue siendo ese comediante. O sea, hasta ahorita nom&#225;s no tiene al wey que lo patinaba. Eran dos comediantes nada m&#225;s. Entonces yo lo veo desde esa manera porque me ha tocado trabajar sobre esa l&#237;nea de transformar la realidad, al menos en mi nicho. Y yo soy un artista de nicho underground, pero neta que la banda me tuvo que decir, a m&#237; toda la gente que me oye me tuvo que decir &#8220;no Juan, acu&#233;rdate que est&#225;s actuando&#8221;. &#191;Sabes? Me tuvieron que decir acu&#233;rdate que es un acto, wey. T&#250; no eres malo. T&#250; no est&#225;s haciendo nada malo. O sea, tranquilo. Ve y toca. Y yo as&#237; como temblando, wey. En mi caso, a m&#237; fue al que m&#225;s le afect&#243; mi arte. Pero hay veces en las que los artistas son a&#250;n m&#225;s chingones y afectan la realidad hacia afuera.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2

Cirerol:</strong> Exacto. S&#237;. Entonces es lo bueno de gente como Ed o Bratty, que es tremendamente famosa y no se inmuta. Ojal&#225; que nunca le afecte. Ella transforma la realidad desde aqu&#237;, desde ella para afuera y causa a lo mejor buenas cosas o lo que quieras. F&#237;jate que me da mucha curiosidad que los artistas m&#225;s famosos o digamos de corte comercial, son los que tiran una vibra positiva, &#191;no? Y eso incluyendo tu disco, &#191;no? Que es como para llorar en tu cuarto. Es como un peque&#241;o sarcasmo de una canci&#243;n de mucho amor. De mucho amor as&#237; exacerbado en el cual, que pues le est&#225;s dando a la persona. Desde ac&#225; adentro, &#191;no? Que sean reales, causan efectos bien importantes en la gente. Utilizar las palabras correctas en una canci&#243;n es muy importante. Y t&#250; utilizaste todas las palabras correctas en ese disco. O sea, ese disco, a pesar de que no lo vayas a tocar, o s&#237; lo vas a volver a tocar en alg&#250;n momento, de principio a final est&#225; bien confeccionado. Y eso nadie te lo va a quitar. Es un disco perfecto y est&#225; grabado bien. Es una cosa incre&#237;ble. Lo que lograste con tu disco es impresionante porque, lograste que se le llame disco.

Dos opuestos, pegados el uno al otro. Me causan un conflicto pol&#237;tico interior.  Navego las ciudades desde la curiosidad y disfruto el <em>sleaze</em>.

por 40 minutos en Playas (es una colonia que atraviesas en 15 minutos, no hab&#237;a necesidad de dar vueltas por cuarenta), las convenc&#237;, a malas caras, de comer en el puesto de Burritos el Panchito, burritos estilo sonora (NO PECHERON NI COSAS CONTEMPOR&#193;NEAS, BURRITOS REAL SONORA VINTAGE) y tacos dorados de puerco. Me ped&#237; dos tacos dorados, un burrito de machaca de sonora y una horchata con refill. Desde que tengo recuerdos, existe este lugar. Me llevaba los burritos de lonche al kinder. Los tacos los preparan entre 12 pm y 1 pm. Por supuesto que al empezar a comer todas ten&#237;amos sonrisas en nuestros rostros. Es un sabor de mas de 20 a&#241;os playense-tijuanense-sonorense.</p><p><strong>9/10</strong> , los burritos saben como og Sonora y los tacos tiene un crunch que te cagas.  No es un 10 porque se les hab&#237;an acabado la ensalada de nopal con tomate que me gusta mucho y el agua-mole. </p><div><hr></div><p><em>lunes 19 de enero 2026</em></p><div

Queda a una cuadra de casa de mi ama. Me levant&#233; con hambre y me fui directamente al tianguis, ya sabes, dicen que entre menos arreglado te vayas mejor. Mi mama se habia quedado en casa terminando unos pendientes y mi hermana y yo nos le adelantamos. Esta imagen de los cortes de pelo son de un peque&#241;o camper-barberia que ofrece su servicio en el tianguis. Yo me haria el 9 de la imagen izq y el 2 de la imagen derecha. En fin. Me atrev&#237; a comer estos tacos que estan en la imagen de abajo. Creo que es lo peor que he comido en un ratote. Tacos de canasta grasosos, secos, y con sabor a manteca. Los tacos de cabeza con una consistencia asquerosa e igual, mantecosos.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg" width="1456" height="1092" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:1092,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:204833,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188213234?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lq69!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fff0f3712-92bd-4411-8a06-aa22508bbce8_1600x1200.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Es mi culpa.

unas gorditas de chicharr&#243;n, pero, antes de regresar a casa, compre 85 pesos de chicharr&#243;n de pork-belly, osea, esencialmente carnitas. Como pueden ver no le temo a la vida y como del tianguis. Y ya en mi casa, por la tarde, hice una salsa verde tatemada, y ah&#237; encima le avente el chicharr&#243;n/carnitas desmenuzado. Mi mama tenia una olla de frijoles negros y decid&#237; hacerme dos tipos de tostadas. Carnitas en salsa verde, con rabano, cebollitas curtidas y chingos de lim&#243;n, y tostadas de frijol negro con ensalada de nopal y pico de gallo y chiles serranos. Las tostadas son de ajonjol&#237;, y mi mama las compra en el abarrotes a la esquina de la casa. Son una joya. Se ven muy fresas pero la neta no las he visto en los supers para la gente pilates-oldmoney-iphonesinfunda.</p><p><strong>7/10</strong>, delicioso, pero creo que puedo mejorar la receta de la salsa verde y haber calentado los frijoles. El tiempo de cocina de esto fueron 40 minutos. Y avente todo en fr&#237;o. &#218;ltimamente no puedo pasar mas de una hora en la cocina o me desespero. </p><div><hr></div><p>domingo 1 de febrero 2026</p><div class="image-gallery-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;gallery&quot;:{&quot;images&quot;:[{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f4ac2513-2c61-4a37-9441-6c7827908dda_1200x1600.jpeg&quot;},{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/6ac13241-4b52-4394-bf48-d989c0ed0b3d_1600x1200.jpeg&quot;},{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/1550e04d-0b0c-46a5-bbec-d3e780d950ae_1600x1200.jpeg&quot;}],&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;staticGalleryImage&quot;:{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/30a628ef-0438-42bc-b750-5ea982793f2d_1456x474.png&quot;}},&quot;isEditorNode&quot;:true}"></div><p>Dos de mis amigos acuarianos cumplieron a&#241;os y decidimos ir a comer al renovado Caf&#233; LAT 32.

Esa d&#237;a ten&#237;an tiraditos y tostadas de mariscos. No estoy segura si es el menu habitual o si ese era temporal. </p><p>Estaban muy ricas, opte por dos tostadas de at&#250;n .

Ten&#237;an pepino persa y mucho aguacate. acompa&#241;adas de lim&#243;n amarillo y salsa macha.  Sinceramente me dieron agruras. Era alcohol mas marinados mas salsa.

Miguel y Miguel would go on to release over a dozen albums to much acclaim, influencing countless players after them to pick up a 12 string and chase the same full bodied sound, the same flowery play style, and lean vocals. Among their devotees was a young boy from Guamuchil, Jose Ariel Camacho Barraza, soon to be known to the world as Ariel Camacho, the king of hearts, the farm boy bard with the old soul. He would name Miguel y Miguel as chief inspirations any chance he got, citing their play style, and their use of the 12 string with the ornate rasgueo, as an incalculable influence, covering many of their songs, himself becoming a towering figure in regional music, before being cemented into legend by his untimely passing. He had done more than enough. Miguel y Miguel had brought in the 12 string and Ariel Camacho took it to its zenith. Therein lies the genetic code of the swagger that is summoned by today&#8217;s regional and corrido stars as well as the origins of some aspects of its sound.</p><div

tempo slapped acoustic bajoloche intertwined to a similarly played 12 string guitar y harmonia, can be traced back to Phoenix, Arizona and the formation of the three man group Arsenal Efectivo. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERiPwP8qaoE">Francisco &#8216;Shrek&#8217; Rodriguez</a>, Javi Bojorquez, and Francisco Alfonso aka Poncho created from their influences a style they called trap corridos that pioneered this raw sound and its more urban indebted aesthetics and subject matter. Like Miguel y Miguel, Arsenal Efectivo are progenitors, and undersung ones at that. They pulled from the milieu of their environments, their experiences, and inspirations and correctly conjured the future sound. This play style and prowess was present from their first release, <em>En La Fuga,</em> and through Arsenal Efectivo&#8217;s artistry they helped create and cultivate the seeds that would later bloom into corridos tumbados on the world&#8217;s stage and take the sound further than it had ever been, through the likes of Junior H, Natanael Cano, Peso Pluma, Fuerza Regida and the like. A cover of their song &#8216;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMNdYiAvN5c">Platicame De Ti</a>&#8217; is an early Natanael Cano highlight, and they garner respect and reverence from the deep heads, major players, and aficionados of corridos and regional. Kanye scrapped a Bad Bunny verse and replaced it with Peso Pluma, Belinda is on the charts with Nata, and Drake is kicking it with Chinito Pacas. Touches of Arsenal Efectivo&#8217;s style are everywhere, and regional is bigger on the map than ever with no signs of that changing any time soon. Whether they get the props they deserve or not, whether they even care to seek this out, we owe a lot of this progression and transcendence, as well as any future Ariel Camachos it might inspire to the boys of Arsenal.</p><p>After a go at the big leagues (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rExNkMV3sOI">Rancho Humilde</a>) and a lull and regrouping, Arsenal Efectivo are still going strong, working on songs, playing shows and most importantly returning dutifully to their home soils to sow some more seeds. Shrek has his <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=-PDgW0d3XD4">DDM label</a> operating out of California, weaving MPC&#8217;s and 808&#8217;s into his signature corridos. Poncho and Javi, besides making their own music, are mentoring and cultivating artists from the Phoenix area on their own <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtvrqJC9CP0">Mala Fama Entertainment label</a>.  We spoke to Poncho about Arsenal&#8217;s legacy and influence, keeping live instrumentation alive in the information age, and what it&#8217;s like running a label. Esto es cosechar, hijo.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> What&#8217;s up Poncho? Ay just wanted to say I&#8217;m a fan of the music and the group, and beyond that, that I know y&#8217;all had a lot to do with what&#8217;s big now, in making the sound, the play style and the flourishes and the strumming patterns and aesthetics. Just wanted to give ya&#8217;ll some deep props for that. <strong>Poncho: </strong>Thank you. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> And I guess that&#8217;s my first question, do you guys feel you&#8217;re underrated? Or do people know how much y&#8217;all shaped the music that is on the top of the charts? <strong>Poncho:</strong> I feel like the mainstream doesn&#8217;t really give us the credit, but most of the musicians, they know, whether they give us the credit or not that&#8217;s a different story. But a lot of the top musicians they know, like Peso Pluma, he knows. He was a fan of our music before he blew up. Natanael Cano, Junior. Natanael has covered our songs.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg" width="1456" height="971" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:971,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1428747,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188583407?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Kjru!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fa5d8965f-3541-4b45-9b6c-9c255bb4bbd3_3000x2000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Yeah he did &#8216;Plat&#237;came De Ti&#8217; right? That&#8217;s a big time romantica, quincea&#241;era song type shit. Dedicate it to your girl type shit. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRXS-wFjtbE">Natanael did a cover</a>, a lot of people think it&#8217;s his but it was our song. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Do you get stuck on that, is it enough for y&#8217;all for the &#8216;real heads&#8217; to know? Are you satisfied with that niche recognition as opposed to widespread recognition? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Well I don&#8217;t to be honest, I don&#8217;t know about the other guys but I definitely don&#8217;t. But at the same time it&#8217;s also kind of our fault, we haven&#8217;t put music out, you know you got to put stuff out to stay relevant. No matter who you are, you got to put stuff out, especially now like with social media and everything, everything moves so fast. You could be hot one minute and the next minute nobody knows who you are, you know? It&#8217;s not people&#8217;s fault that they don&#8217;t really know who we are. So it&#8217;s kind of our problem, you know? Not really the fans&#8217; or other musicians&#8217; fault. But for sure the wave was kind of started, a lot of what&#8217;s going on right now is because of us, our influence. The way they dress, the way they play, the bajoloche, everything like that.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Do you feel like people in Phoenix really fuck with ya&#8217;ll, are they really loyal to ya&#8217;ll like hometown love type deal? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Ah not really to be honest. I feel like people here, I don&#8217;t know, I never felt the love as much as like say like in Texas you know? We got a lot of love from Texas. California, too. We got a lot of love from California. I feel like here it&#8217;s a different scene, here people are more into the narcocorridos from Mexico. Singing about the cartels and stuff like that. Even though we sing about some stuff like that too, but not as hardcore as like&#8230;Edicion Especial or some of those groups from Culiacan. That&#8217;s more what people listen to in Phoenix. Unless you&#8217;re a younger kid who is just getting into the scene. The majority of people here listen to like, Los Nuevos Rebeldes, Edicion Especial, Marca Registrada, all those Culiacan groups. We don&#8217;t get that love that much here. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> I don&#8217;t know why it&#8217;s always like that haha. Hometowns always wanna act like they don&#8217;t know you. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah yeah, you&#8217;re not the hometown hero. I mean&#8217; don&#8217;t take me wrong, we do get love for sure. But just not as much as in other places.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> You said Texas fucks with yall? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah yeah Texas for sure, Atalanta, Texas. Even people in New York. The fans we get over there are hardcore, we don&#8217;t really have those fans here [in Phoenix]. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Yeah cause the aesthetics, it was like leaned out Southern stuff, more like hip hop, and mixing it with rancheras, regional? <strong>Poncho:</strong> That was <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6C6V159q7Q">Herencia</a>, they&#8217;re the ones that started singing about lean and stuff like that, because of the hip hop. But also, they themselves have said they sing trap corridos, it&#8217;s a similar style, they also use the bajoloche, and dress a certain way, so it&#8217;s kind of like, same style almost.</p><div

Was it something you listened to growing up? Your family? <strong>Poncho:</strong> For me, it&#8217;s pretty much what I&#8217;ve listened to my whole life. That&#8217;s all I&#8217;ve known. My parents would listen to Chalino, Ramon Ayala, Joan Sebastian. The typical regional Mexican music. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Ya&#8217;ll fuck with Tito Torbellino?</p><p><strong>Poncho:</strong> To be honest I personally never really listened to him much, I know he&#8217;s from here, he came out of here, but I never really listened to him. A lot of people around here really do like him. That&#8217;s something they listen to a lot. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>I feel like he&#8217;s similarly underrated. His drummer and his bassist go super hard. I feel like that&#8217;s how y&#8217;all are, the songs are hard but the playing is underrated, the inventiveness of it. You play the requinto in the band or a 6 string? <strong>Poncho:</strong> I play guitar, harmonia. A 6 string.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> As far as writing, you guys make harmonies or does Shrek write the harmonies? Or is it more of a group effort? Everybody pitches in on topics and lyrics etc? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah for sure it&#8217;s more a group thing. I know <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yj_5zWJALHk">Arsenal would not be Arsenal</a> without the three of us, each one adds their little sauce. For us that&#8217;s how it is, even with writing, I helped Shrek write a lot of the songs. That&#8217;s probably what made the group the way it is, that it was more of a group thing we all did together.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> You all feel you have the juice again? Ya&#8217;ll gonna try to get back into it and pop off again? Tienen las ganas? <strong>Poncho:</strong> For sure, there&#8217;s new stuff that we got. Shrek has been developing this sound that&#8217;s more modern with an MPC, basically a sampler and piano where you can make your own beats, and he&#8217;s adding it into the corridos. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Damn, I&#8217;m interested in hearing how that plays out. Yall have a lot of songs that express a kinship with California, do you feel closer to the West Coast or more Southwest with it? <strong>Poncho:</strong> I feel more West Coast definitely, Shrek&#8217;s from California and he grew up there <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5HpJG81mXg">on the beaches.</a> By Santa Maria, right by the beach. It&#8217;s between Santa Barbara County and San Luis county. The 805.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> So in terms of aesthetics, the drip, the play style. How&#8217;d y&#8217;all get to your sound? What went into that? <strong>Poncho:</strong> So the difference with our music was the <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/search?q=bajoloche">bajoloche</a>, more than anything, the acoustic bass. We&#8217;re the ones that started using that in our corridos. Like right now for example, the kid that&#8217;s popular, Xavi, he uses that in his music and he&#8217;s top of the charts right now. Also Yaritza, she also uses the bajoloche. So basically those two groups, that&#8217;s basically our style, requinto, guitar, and bajoloche, and they&#8217;re some of the ones that are dominating. I know Natanael has used it too, Peso Pluma. If they use that style, bajoloche, basically they got it from us. We&#8217;re the ones who started that. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Pretty much that slapped percussive bass element right? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah basically acoustic bass with the slapping, we&#8217;re the first ones to use it in the corrido game. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>That&#8217;s heavy. Respect. That&#8217;s like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ry10HqGKpY">Miguel y Miguel putting in the 12 string</a>. There&#8217;s corridos before that and corridos after that. To be able to say like, hey, that was us. That&#8217;s mad heavy. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah we started that. Also the style of dressing. We were the first ones to start dressing like, not the traditional sombrero and suit. Everybody was wearing the shiny suits back then you know?. We released a couple videos dressed in streetwear, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yee3NnksUHw">Vida Peligrosa</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgWKXLHgllU">Tali 50</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6N7zlowSG4">Arsenal Efectivo</a>. So it was three of them, and in all three we&#8217;re wearing like black jackets, black jeans and the cap. Before that everyone was wearing the sombrero and the hat, Ariel Camacho style. A lot of people try taking credit for the streetwear, that&#8217;s one thing I don&#8217;t like. They try to say it was them but in reality it wasn&#8217;t. That was us.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Anthem</a>&#8221;, I feel like y&#8217;all could flex a lot more than y&#8217;all do and take that credit. That&#8217;s sick to me, like it doesn&#8217;t really bother y&#8217;all. That&#8217;s very admirable to me, like if you know you know. <strong>Poncho: </strong>Yeah for sure. I mean people don&#8217;t even really care about that stuff, who started anything and stuff, they just wanna hear the music. That&#8217;s why we don&#8217;t push for credit too much. I like to push for credit really, Shrek not as much but I like to remind people where it came from.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Are you someone who listens to all the new shit that comes out from the regional and the tumbados scene? <strong>Poncho:</strong> For sure yeah I do. I listen to everything, to all the new guys. And if I like it I listen to it more, and if I don&#8217;t then I won&#8217;t listen to it. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Regional is having its moment right now. It&#8217;s everywhere, but certain genres, like trap, are kind of not hitting like they used to. Trouble selling tickets etc. Do you feel like the moment for regional will last, or will people get tired of it? <strong>Poncho: </strong>I&#8217;m pretty sure it will last, cause basically it opened up a whole market of all these new listeners. All these little Mexican kids from the US that only listened to hip hop for the past years. It&#8217;s crazy, that&#8217;s the vision I had when we started the group. I was like, this is gonna get people who don&#8217;t even listen to corridos to come listen to corridos. Shrek&#8217;s half Asian, with that influence, they didn&#8217;t really sound like typical corridos, and with the trap stuff. It sounded different. I knew that was gonna bring more people to the genre. Even though, like you said, we don&#8217;t get the credit for it, I know that basically how things are right now, has a lot to do with us.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Are y&#8217;all still on Rancho Humilde, or mostly just your own labels now? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Nah we aren&#8217;t with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndpSgb2hyfk">Rancho anymore</a>, but we got our own labels now. Shrek has his own, which is DDM and me and Javi have Mala Fama Entertainment. He&#8217;s based out of California, Anaheim area, so he tries to work with people from that area. And we try to do nothing but artists from Phoenix. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Ah that&#8217;s so important for real. That&#8217;s heavy. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s so beautiful to me about this style of music [corridos] taking off with the younger kids, is they&#8217;re practicing and learning real instruments again. For a long time it was Fruity Loops and beats and stuff like that, which is cool but now I see my little nephews practicing the fuck out of the guitar to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yMMmU73iVw">learn some Junior H </a>songs. You can&#8217;t play that stuff unless you practice chingos, it&#8217;s really nice to see the effort and interest the music has created in kids to get into real playing. It integrates into our world you know? It&#8217;s a unifying thing. Your uncle is never gonna ask you &#8216;ay mijo bust out the Fruity Loops and play us something?&#8217; you know? But the guitar&#8230;makes you proud you know? This resurgence sent a lot of kids down a good path. Saved em kinda.</p><p><strong>Poncho: </strong>Yeah it has a lot to do with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm7vLqMwi5s">your origins</a>. Cause you&#8217;re Mexican you know? So what are you gonna play? <a href="https://youtu.be/y3UE7jHfnMo?si=b8yMQ7ct4mPdVsCE">Mexican music</a>. You gotta be proud of your roots and where you&#8217;re from. At least that&#8217;s the way I see it. That&#8217;s the reason I like to do it. I could be doing anything else but I&#8217;m Mexican why am I gonna try to be something that I&#8217;m not? <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> And it bangs. And that&#8217;s the only place in the top of the charts where you&#8217;ll hear bajoloche, 12 string guitar, tololoche, and accordion you know? Look at the other 40 top songs of other genres and they aren&#8217;t gonna have those live instruments on there. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Exactly. For sure.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg" width="1456" height="2172" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:2172,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1704469,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188583407?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" title="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tw2A!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F9bd0f2b3-eb18-4a38-81c8-2ca6143c0d97_2011x3000.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Do you have any song you&#8217;ve had a hand in that is your favorite? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah I wouldn&#8217;t really be able to say, I like everything we&#8217;ve worked on. I like em all. The group as a whole, basically.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>You guys know Juan Cirerol right? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Oh yeah, Juan. For sure. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> I have a group with my homie and we always idolized <a href="https://ibero909.fm/ibero-909-inicio/a-juan-cirerol-tambien-le-gustan-los-corridos-tumbados">Juan</a>, like he was about that life to us you know? Somebody who just gives themselves over to their art. I remember thinking like man I need to get addicted to heroin or something. Or at least you can end up thinking like that. You want to be what you sing about. You want your art to come from your life, and when life is heavy it might make the art interesting. Do you feel like your art comes from your real life? <strong>Poncho: </strong>Yeah well basically for me, it&#8217;s like, I&#8217;m not gonna try to be something that I&#8217;m not. Like if I&#8217;d try to do reggaeton, I don&#8217;t know anything about that, I don&#8217;t live like that, it wouldn&#8217;t come out right. That&#8217;s the reason why Juan&#8217;s music is so good, cause that&#8217;s what he lives. That&#8217;s who he is. He&#8217;s actually a big influence for me personally. And the guys too, but he&#8217;s my compadre actually. I kind of introduced them to him, they haven&#8217;t met him personally but they know about his music, his ways. Staying up all night smoking meth and writing songs. That&#8217;s why his music would come out raw like that, cause he was doing that. And <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8aaqPtGEHs">Shrek was actually like that too</a>, when I told him about Juan, he started experimenting with that too. Getting high, smoking a little meth here and there to kind of put yourself, I&#8217;m not saying it&#8217;s a good thing to do or recommending anyone to do it, but when you smoke meth it gives you like a certain focus that&#8217;s crazy. You can spend like 10 hours writing a song. It&#8217;s not like when you&#8217;re sober, you get bored or whatever.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>I hear t<a href="https://journals.openedition.org/caravelle/11534?lang=es">hat in the music for sure</a>. Where in Mexico is your family from? Does it inform the mythology of what you do, do you look to family history and origin a lot? <strong>Poncho: </strong>Yeah, like I said. That&#8217;s the reason I&#8217;m into corridos. My family they come from Sinaloa, from Badiraguato from where Chapo&#8217;s from, where all the dealers are from. My uncles and my grandpa, they used to live in the hills, the sierra in Badiraguato and they would go from town to town playing guitar. That&#8217;s where I got my inspiration and my heritage from. They would go play for the mafiosos, spend the day at their house, sleep there, play all night, play all day and wake up the next day and move to the next little town. Like a tour of the sierra. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Oh so you come from musicos then? You got music in your family desde antes? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah my grandpa, my uncles. One of them was in an actual dueto, like a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8LEErY5-68">Miguel y Miguel type</a>. But all my uncles, I got maybe like 10 uncles and all of them played guitar, accordion, tololoche, my grandpa played guitar. But never like recording like me, you know? A band that puts out records or cd&#8217;s and shit and famous. They were professional, but in the sierra. They would make their money to live off of, grab their guitar and go from town to town just playing and they&#8217;d come back like a month later with a bunch of money cause they&#8217;d been playing that whole month. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Ah that&#8217;s beautiful. <strong>Poncho: </strong>Yeah that&#8217;s where I got my inspiration from.</p><p></p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Is the music you make something that you can share with them? Do they fuck with it or only to a point? Do they understand what y&#8217;all are doing? My family doesn&#8217;t really fuck with corridos tumbados. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Well it&#8217;s modern, you know? They&#8217;re not gonna really fuck with it. They fuck with that I&#8217;m a musician and that I&#8217;m doing it big. But they&#8217;re not gonna be listening to our songs and shit. They&#8217;ll probably tell their relatives like &#8216;oh yeah he&#8217;s my nephew&#8217; but they&#8217;re not gonna be like..you know? Not my uncles, at least. Or my grandpa. But my cousins and shit, for sure, yeah. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> I think my favorite song of y&#8217;alls is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHfWOx6xnCk">38 y Super</a>. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Oh yeah that&#8217;s probably one of my favorites too, the energy. Has a lot of energy.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Do you guys all write the melodies or does Shrek do the melodies? <strong>Poncho:</strong> He pretty much does the melodies. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Are you guys a full time band right now still, or more on the side? Is this what you mainly do? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah basically yes. This is what we&#8217;ve been doing for the past 10 years. Right now we&#8217;re at kind of a standstill but I mean we&#8217;ve been a band for 10 years so. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> People&#8217;s attention spans are so depleted now, longevity isn&#8217;t really a goal I feel like necessarily. You mentioned how there&#8217;s a pressure for constant engagement, constant posting or just generating &#8216;content&#8217; to keep that audience. I have younger relatives and the way they engage with media and music they consume, it&#8217;s intimidating. They hop from interest to interest so quick. Someone will get big and then before you know it it&#8217;s like, where&#8217;d they go? The window closes a lot quicker. <strong>Poncho:</strong> I feel like it&#8217;s not even just the kids, it&#8217;s e<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxhIKJ1eghI">verybody now</a>. Cause if you notice, I mean it probably happens to you a lot, I know it happens to me like, you&#8217;ll be looking at something and next thing you know you&#8217;re looking at something else and you forgot what you were thinking about. You won&#8217;t even remember why you went into your phone. I feel like that&#8217;s everybody now with the social media and reels and youtube and tiktok and all that shit, I feel like it&#8217;s messing with everybody and I&#8217;m not someone who has ever had that problem. It happens to me for sure, I&#8217;ll have to think really hard to remember why I even opened my phone. I feel like it&#8217;s just harder to focus. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> There&#8217;s just too much input. <strong>Poncho:</strong> It&#8217;s cause there&#8217;s so much information and so much shit you can be looking at something and the next day you&#8217;re on something else and forget what you were getting into just yesterday. So you really have to have a lot of discipline if you really want to do something. I have kids call me saying &#8216;ay lets go do this, or hey I want y&#8217;all to do this&#8217; and I won&#8217;t hear from them for a week and then they won&#8217;t even remember that they hit me up. I remember back in the day, you would call somebody or leave a message and they would call you right back. Or you could text them. Right now you could text somebody and maybe they&#8217;ll answer, maybe they won&#8217;t. Or they&#8217;ll respond like 3 or 5 days later. And you can&#8217;t even be mad at them cause you know you&#8217;re the same way. It&#8217;s just normal now.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>Shit doesn&#8217;t run as smooth. Damn I never think of that. How it affects all levels, of say, like, the music industry or playing a show or something. I have a sister who&#8217;s like 20, and she&#8217;s on instagram and stuff but it&#8217;s kind of in fashion now, for those younger kids, to have an instagram but with no posts. Like it&#8217;s lame to be posting shit. They&#8217;ll post stories and have followers and follow people but their profiles are all empty. That&#8217;s kind of sick to me.</p><p><strong>Poncho:</strong> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evfcTGYLhbY">Maybe they&#8217;re onto something</a>. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Yeah we&#8217;re over here trying to max out engagement and they&#8217;re&#8211; <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah you never know what&#8217;s gonna be the next cool thing. One minute you gotta be posting and posting stories and the next it&#8217;s just not cool to post anything. You know, it&#8217;s always changing, evolving.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Fama Entertainment</a> and that you&#8217;re trying to work exclusively with artists from around Phoenix right? Is there a good music scene there?</p><p><strong>Poncho: </strong>Yeah we got quite a few talents that we&#8217;re working with, and to be honest there is quite a big music scene. There&#8217;s a lot of really talented people. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Is it mostly regional, or more diverse sound? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Pretty much, a lot of musicians, guitar players, a lot of bass players, accordion players, you know, singer songwriters. But it&#8217;s basically regional, at least the ones we&#8217;ve known. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Are they younger artists? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Yeah they&#8217;re pretty young, we got some good kids going, we got <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtvrqJC9CP0">Compa Nava</a>, he&#8217;s got a really modern style. It&#8217;s more like rapping with guitars. His style is more like that. He&#8217;s one of the really bright prospects on the label. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Sick, I fuck with that. Who else y&#8217;all working with it? <strong>Poncho:</strong> We also have this kid <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_13tvfRnaxc">Mini Panther</a>, he&#8217;s like 17, he&#8217;s from Culiacan. He&#8217;s more of the traditional style corridos. But we talked about discipline and that fool he writes every day, he&#8217;ll call me every day like &#8216;ay I got a new song&#8217;. He&#8217;s heavy. Those are two of the main kids we&#8217;re working with right now. We got some other ones, too but these kids are really the ones that are locked in.</p><p><strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Does it feel weird to be running a label now instead of being on one? Had y&#8217;all had experience running a label before? <strong>Poncho:</strong> No, this is our first time doing it. And not really, it&#8217;s like, we already know the business so we know what it takes and what we got to do. So it&#8217;s kind of a normal transition. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> I was gonna ask about that, being on a label can sometimes feel frustrating or inorganic, especially if you ain&#8217;t, like, the STAR<strong>, </strong>you know? Or if you sit on music too long, or if they&#8217;re busy with another artist etc. Sometimes it can feel like, man what can a label give me that I can&#8217;t get on my own? <strong>Poncho: </strong>My advice would be to not even worry about that and just focus on writing music, because if you&#8217;re worried about what the label does, you&#8217;re worried about the wrong thing. You got to worry about writing a fucking hit. Cause if you write a hit, it don&#8217;t matter who your label is, nothing matters cause that shit is gonna blow up and that shit is gonna open doors for you it&#8217;s gonna get you money. So don&#8217;t worry too much about the label, or anything, except writing that hit. Getting that song. A lot of people don&#8217;t like to hear that, but that&#8217;s the way I see it because once you write that hit the label right away will say &#8220;oh shit did you hear so and so&#8217;s song? Now that&#8217;s a hit&#8221; they&#8217;re gonna put all the attention on you, once you got that hit. But in the meanwhile that&#8217;s why they&#8217;re not like, really on you like that. &#8220;She&#8217;s got a pretty okay song, a pretty dope little song&#8221; or whatever. But when you write a song that&#8217;s a hit, and you&#8217;ll know cause whoever you play it for, they fuck with it. They&#8217;ll feel the vibe right away. It&#8217;s a hit, you&#8217;ll feel it. And just focus more on writing. And you&#8217;re probably not gonna write a hit on your first song or second song, but the more you do it, one of those is gonna work. You know, I bet if you write 1000 songs, by the end of it, you&#8217;ll be a badass composer. <strong>Eric Hernandez: </strong>I read that <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF2TifYgZN8">Cornelio Reyna wrote 2000 songs</a>, and at the height of his power, the label wouldn&#8217;t even listen to it when he sent them in, they&#8217;d just put it onto some 45&#8217;s and that shit would go gold. <strong>Poncho:</strong> Exactly. Yeah cause that&#8217;s how it is. That&#8217;s how it is with anything, with being a musician, anything you do in life. The more you do it, the better you&#8217;re going to be at it. So instead of worrying about any of the other little things, the label, this or that, just worry about writing. Writing and writing and writing. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s gonna get you paid. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s gonna get you ahead. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s gonna get you everything you want. So don&#8217;t even worry about how much they&#8217;re paying you right now, or when they&#8217;re gonna put out the music, just keep writing and eventually you&#8217;re gonna get that song, or 10 songs or however many, cause the more you write the better you&#8217;ll be, always. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Right, that&#8217;s really good advice. <strong>Poncho:</strong> And it takes discipline, you know? It&#8217;s not easy to get up and say &#8216;oh fuck I&#8217;m gonna write a song every single day&#8217; but you could do it. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqHBYLNjD_g">I mean if you really put your mind to it you</a> could get up at 8 in the morning and say I&#8217;m not gonna fucking stop until I write a song. And by the time you get to your 20th song you&#8217;ll be writing them in like an hour. De volada. You write a song every day and, eventually, you do it so much you&#8217;re gonna come out with something fire. <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Yeah that&#8217;s sick. And it&#8217;s crazy how kids can get signed off like a little 30 second clip or snippet off tiktok, you know? <strong>Poncho:</strong> The problem with that though, when you hit like that&#8230;it&#8217;s more of a lucky thing. It&#8217;s like you got lucky but there&#8217;s no shortcuts, you could get that little hit off that tiktok but what happens when that little five minutes die out? Your career dies out, you know? <strong>Eric Hernandez:</strong> Or like, can you even deliver another song, right? <strong>Poncho:</strong> Exactly. That&#8217;s the problem, the kids are focusing on becoming viral &#8216;oh I&#8217;m gonna put out a reel and it&#8217;s gonna get 3, 4, 5 million views&#8217; but the problem with that is you&#8217;re not gonna make any money, cause they&#8217;re just gonna milk you for that little five minutes of fame that you got, they&#8217;re gonna milk you and when you can&#8217;t follow up you&#8217;re just gonna fall off right away. And that&#8217;s the problem if you don&#8217;t put in the work, you&#8217;re not gonna be able to sustain. You got to be able to sustain it. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E51YLB-xP3Y">So instead of focusing on the social media</a> and all that other bullshit, even though it&#8217;s important, focus first on your talent. Becoming good at writing, singing, or whatever you do. Be the best at it, be the best at it, best singer, best writer, best guitar player. Because if you&#8217;re a badass musician, you&#8217;re gonna get what you&#8217;re looking for. But if you&#8217;re mediocre, you&#8217;re gonna fall right off.</p><p><strong>From Cynthia magazine issue 1, <a href="https://cynthia-magazine.com/">order the printed issue now</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Interview of Poncho from Arsenal Efectivo by Eric Hernandez <br>Photos by Patricio Malagon</strong> </p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

Driving two hours out from Los Angeles into the desert, you can feel the intense heat permeating through the car windows. There are missing person posters on chain link fences and camels roaming the terrain. Everything is beige. <br><br>When we enter the front door, the smell of homemade carnitas tacos hits our noses. Danny&#8217;s dad is clearing out the driveway with a leaf blower in preparation for our shoot while his mom is making a home cooked meal. There&#8217;s a Catholic bible situated on the dresser as we scope out different rooms to shoot in. I can&#8217;t help but notice the quotes about the importance of family plastered on the beige walls, and Danny himself greets us while holding his dog, Crowdy.</p><p>&#8220;That&#8217;s my child,&#8221; he says. For the 20-year-old singer, this is his kingdom. Though he drives into LA for business meetings four or five times a month, Danny mostly keeps it all within his family compound: he writes, records, and daydreams from here. It&#8217;s a humble way of living for someone who&#8217;s made such an impact in such a short time span. &#8220;It&#8217;s been crazy seeing the effect that I have on the kids,&#8221; he ruminates. &#8220;Everybody randomly just has curly hair now, and they all have these B.B. belts and baggy jeans.&#8221;</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor"

Since taking a chance and posting TikTok covers of corridos tumbados online during the pandemic, DannyLux has become one of the most influential figures in the new wave of M&#250;sica Regional Mexicana. It&#8217;s not just his silky voice and curly hair that has made him such a picture perfect star, but his lovable persona and authentic artist&#8217;s ethos. Along with his cousin Eddy, who lives just a few minutes away, Danny has performed his lovelorn acoustic songs to crowds of young kids around the world, making him akin to a sort of Gen Z Justin Bieber of sad sierre&#241;o.</p><p>&#8220;My main goal has always been to help out kids who maybe don&#8217;t have a full family,&#8221; he tells me. Though Danny could&#8217;ve indulged with his newfound fame and fortune by moving to LA and buying a fancy apartment or Lamborghini, that&#8217;s not really of interest to him. He&#8217;d rather keep it all about the family.</p><p>We sat down with the singer in between shooting in his family home to discuss his rise to fame, sleep paralysis, and world peace.</p><div

Your mom made us tacos and everything. <strong>DannyLux: </strong>No, of course. Of course. I&#8217;m about to eat some for dinner, too. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> What do you think about this shoot? Is it something different for you?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah, it&#8217;s definitely different, but I really fuck with it. I like the whole vibe and all the outfits they put me in. All the things you guys did were so sick, bro. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> We really wanted to shoot in your home because we feel like your whole career is sort of based around family and very authentic in that way. How has it been for your parents since you&#8217;ve blown up?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>It&#8217;s been so fun growing together because obviously none of us knew anything about the music industry and all that. It&#8217;s so sick how my parents were willing to keep learning. My mom right now helps me out a lot with accounting and managing my money because I was kinda stupid in the beginning. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Well I saw that you just did an ad for Accounting+. What was that about?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Oh, yeah. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mse9qD-GGuA">This company reached out </a>and asked if I could help them out. Yeah, cause I also feel like I just need to be smarter with my money. I feel like everybody who starts making money wants to make more, and you just have to be smart with it, you know? <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> So everything is in your home. You work out of here, you record in your home studio, etc. How often do you go to LA?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>In a month, I&#8217;ll probably go five times. I be going a lot. For meetings and stuff. Mainly just work stuff.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg" width="1456" height="975" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:975,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:10976960,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188530860?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!tfWi!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb6ecaf18-a40b-4da2-91bf-f5a47e98044f_3635x2435.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> How has your fame impacted your family life?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>I feel like it&#8217;s just been a blessing.

It feels like, damn, what do I do now? Are people even still listening to me? Do I have to keep posting? Do I have to keep making music? It would hit me really hard. I would feel so lonely after the tours because I would just be at my house doing nothing. I would basically be done with my job, you know? I&#8217;d release an album, promote it, go on tour for a couple months, and then come back home. I would just be in my room like, damn, is this really all I have to do? Why do I feel stuck? I think I&#8217;ve learned that it&#8217;s just all about patience. All these things that I&#8217;m doing, all these songs that I&#8217;m writing are part of a bigger picture. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Patience is a virtue.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Yeah, it must be a mindfuck to go on tour and have all these people screaming at you. I went to your show in Houston and was amazed at how rabid and young your fans are. There were little kids throwing their Air Forces at you trying to get you to sign them.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>[Laughs] Yeah, bro. It&#8217;s been crazy seeing the effect that I have on the kids. Everybody randomly just has curly hair now, they all have these <a href="https://images.genius.com/d30b5e0670c3f44e2c29ffe4a9d59a3b.828x828x1.jpg">B.B. belts and baggy jeans</a>. That&#8217;s how I&#8217;ve always liked to dress. I remember when I found those B.B. belts, I was like, &#8216;Damn these are sick,&#8217; so I started wearing them with just normal baggy jeans. I don&#8217;t know why, but that kind of started that trend. I probably didn&#8217;t even start the trend, but <a href="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRurCmG-nK4gLg7dfRhO4j8e2xpdtZa8QNvWg&amp;s">me and my cousin</a> just started doing that style, and a lot of kids kind of got inspired by that. That&#8217;s the sick thing as well, being able to have that effect on people.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg" width="1456" height="2174" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:2174,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:12024148,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188530860?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!4y2E!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2896552c-f171-4171-aa78-ba2a73a70913_2435x3635.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Ivan Guzman: </strong>What are you most afraid of?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Failing. That&#8217;s one of my biggest fears. Other than those types of fears, I feel like literal fears, hmm. I&#8217;m scared of airplanes. Every time I get on an airplane, I just pop two <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@_kaitlyndelvalle_/video/7343250029328600350">melatonins</a> and hope I knock out. I hate being awake during an airplane because my mind just goes all over the place. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> I hate flying, too. <strong>DannyLux: </strong>It&#8217;s stressful, bro. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> I get antsy. I gotta get the aisle seat. <strong>DannyLux: </strong>Even the airport. I hate the airport, bro. That&#8217;s why, one day, I hope I have my own private jet. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> That&#8217;s the goal.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>That&#8217;s always the goal. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> I saw that in high school you did soccer and they kicked you out. Then you were just depressed in your room trying to figure out what your passion should be.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah. It was always music and soccer. Ever since I was seven years old, I was on the soccer team and playing the guitar. Eventually, once I got toward the end of middle school, I was leaning more toward soccer. I feel like a lot of us Hispanic kids, we always wanted to be a pro athlete. I wanted to be a pro soccer player, so I started focusing a lot on that. In high school, I tried out and made the team, but after two months of being on the team I didn&#8217;t have the required GPA. So they kicked me out. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> You really have to have a certain GPA to be on the soccer team?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah. I feel like it&#8217;s the minimum. It&#8217;s a 2.0 GPA, and I had a 1.8. I don&#8217;t know, I just sucked at school. That affected me and my parents because I have older siblings, and they all failed school as well. That&#8217;s why since I&#8217;m the last one, I&#8217;m the baby, it felt like that pressure was on me. If I don&#8217;t get good grades, I&#8217;m just gonna fail my parents because I was their last hope. It&#8217;s like, at least one of their kids is doing good in school. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> So it was all on you. <strong>DannyLux: </strong>Yeah, and it just sucked when they kicked me off the soccer team because my dad would take me to all the practices at the school. So having to tell him that they kicked me off of the team because of my grades, bro, it was one of the worst punishments. My parents have never hit me, but when I got home, mentally it really messed me up. I remember I was crying every day. And then even worse, COVID hit. It was March 2020. I was a sophomore, and school was online. Now I was just at home doing nothing, feeling like I couldn&#8217;t do anything right. My parents were always just mad at me whenever they saw me. They would just look disappointed. Then eventually, one day I just decided to grab an old guitar I had and upload a <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@dannyluxfr/video/6777596414890347781?lang=en">random cover</a> on TikTok. The next day, I saw it had 12,000 views. That to me, it was a lot. That motivated me. So every two days, I would upload a <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@dannyluxfr/video/6777596414890347781">new cover</a>. I was like, damn, this feels so good. I love making music, but I just never did it because I never thought I could be anyone. Eventually, more and more people started following me. Randomly, one day I read a comment that was like, &#8220;Why don&#8217;t you try to make your own music?&#8221; I was like, &#8216;Nah, I&#8217;ve never tried this. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s a good idea.&#8217; <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@dannyluxfr/video/6777596414890347781">I just thought it was so cringey</a>, like writing my own songs. I don&#8217;t know. But eventually I tried it because I liked this girl, so I just made a song. That&#8217;s the first song I ever recorded, it&#8217;s called &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CU8YTWGrX2w">24:7.</a>&#8221; The rest is history. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> It&#8217;s that fear of being cringe that you have to overcome to reach greatness. You have to put yourself out there and just be cringe, then it will all happen.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah. I&#8217;ve learned so much thanks to music. Honestly, I&#8217;ve lost a lot of fear and social anxiety. I can talk to anyone now. Performing live has helped me out a lot. I used to be really quiet. I used to stutter a lot. I had a stuttering problem. And this music stuff has really helped me surpass that. It&#8217;s been sick. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> That&#8217;s amazing. It&#8217;s like actual evolution. You evolved like a Pok&#233;mon.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Literally, bro.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg" width="1456" height="2174" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:2174,&quot;width&quot;:1456,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:10075067,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/jpeg&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://cynthiamagazine.substack.com/i/188530860?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Tvnu!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F42d8e3d8-69ca-4c53-8a6c-a6efb82ef5f2_2435x3635.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p><strong>Ivan Guzman: </strong>Do you have crazy dreams at night? <strong>DannyLux: </strong>Bro, I have the craziest dreams, but the thing is half the time I know I had a crazy dream but I don&#8217;t remember it. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> That&#8217;s why you gotta write them down right when you wake up.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Bro, nah, I swear I have the craziest dreams. I hate having scary dreams because I just hate that feeling. You know how you get the shivers? But I&#8217;ve never really written down my dreams. I like to read a lot of poems, though. It helps me write songs. Poems in Spanish. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Have you ever had sleep paralysis?<strong> Ivan Guzman: </strong>Yes, bro. I hate it. One time, I was sleeping in my room, and I randomly opened my eyes because I felt like somebody laid down right next to me. And I heard them whispering in my ear. I was facing toward the wall, and I was trying so hard to look over to see who it was. I even tried to yell, but I couldn&#8217;t bro. I remember that I knew I had my phone, and I was gonna be like, &#8216;Hey Siri, how do you wake up from sleep paralysis?&#8217; But I couldn&#8217;t even talk. I knew I was having sleep paralysis, so I was trying to ask Siri. I just hate that feeling that you can&#8217;t do anything, you&#8217;re just there.

<strong>DannyLux: </strong>I remember I watched <em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaEWHrwF0fc">La Bamba</a> </em>(1987) like over ten times. Honestly, I feel like I watched that movie over 100 times, bro. Ritchie Valens was a really big inspiration to me. Growing up, I would watch a lot of <em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iIUGEOreiw">Ben 10</a></em>. Love <em>Ben 10</em>. And I&#8217;ve always liked dogs.

What do you think about the current state of corridos tumbados? I think it&#8217;s only gonna get bigger, but do you think it will eventually stop popping off? <strong>DannyLux: </strong>Like you said, I feel like Regional Mexican music and corridos are at the top right now. It&#8217;s, like, surpassing English music and even Reggaeton. Honestly, it&#8217;s thanks to a lot of pioneers like Peso Pluma and all of them. They&#8217;ve been helping out. It&#8217;s an honor to even be a part of this whole movement. It&#8217;s so sick. At the end of the day, we&#8217;re all doing what we love, which is music. Music can really make the world such a better place. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> If we didn&#8217;t have music, we would die.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Bro, I feel like if there was no music, there would be so much more hate in the world. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Yeah. World peace. <strong>DannyLux: </strong>World peace coming soon. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> They need to bring back world peace in mainstream music. I feel like in the 90&#8217;s, it was all about world peace, like with Michael Jackson and &#8220;We Are The World.&#8221; That doesn&#8217;t exist anymore.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Nah. They tried to do it again with Disney stars, and it failed. I didn&#8217;t like it. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Did you watch Disney Channel growing up? <strong>DannyLux: </strong><a href="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQAvweMu95QZHAKHXZ7Ukn9zyFOHdQuqdgETA&amp;s">Yeah</a>. I also watched Nickelodeon, but my mom didn&#8217;t let me watch Spongebob. So I don&#8217;t really know Spongebob. <strong>Ivan Guzman:</strong> Really?<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah, she said it was the Devil. <strong>Ivan Guzman: Why? DannyLux: </strong>I don&#8217;t know. Even Pok&#233;mon. I remember I would collect them as a little kid, and she threw away the cards. She said, &#8220;Each one of those Pok&#233;mon is an evil spirit.&#8221; She might&#8230; <strong>Ivan Guzman: </strong>Maybe she got a point.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>You know, she might have a point. <strong>Ivan Guzman: </strong>You gotta pray [points to the crucifixion on the dresser].<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Literally. My mom has little things sprinkled around the house. <strong>Ivan Guzman: </strong>Well, thank you so much for talking to me.<strong> DannyLux: </strong>Yeah, of course, bro.</p><div
