Two Latinx friends. Wildly different music tastes. Each week they bring you música from the Latinx / Latina / Latino artists they love. Hosted by Miriam Zoila Pérez & Verónica Bayetti Flores.

  1. ENCORE: F Fascism

    6 NOV

    ENCORE: F Fascism

    So...things are feeling more than a little fascist in the USA right now. Todo mal, pero no a falta de resistencia. This week we are re-running an episode from last year in which we talk about the global rise of fascism, historical context around the ebbs and flows of progress and backlash, and of course, the soundtrack of resistance. Whether it’s the musicians who resisted the 1960’s rise of right-wing dictators in Latin America as part of the Nueva Canción movement, artists who are making political resistance music today, or songs that might not be outright political at all, but help us see (and feel!) what a better future might look like—music is here to fuel us as we fight back. Featuring music by Mercedes Sosa, Ana Macho, Rafa Pabön, Ana Tijoux ft Shadia Mansour, La Santa Cecilia, Javiera Mena, Helado Negro, and Xenia Rubinos.

    ENCORE: Halloween

    Trico Tri! Today we’re stretching wayyyy back in the archives for our very first jalogüin episode. It’s weird, it’s spooky, there are vampires and brujas and scary things that aren’t our political situation. We know we can all use a little escape right now. Enjoy! Featuring music from Johnny Prez, Total Freedom, Los Rakas, Las Sucias, El Gran Combo, and María y José. Show notes: bit.ly/4huKhVQ Follow us: instagram.com/RadioMenea newsletter: bit.ly/RMjoin

    Ep 262: La Colectiva Feminista

    We’re back with a brand new episode, this time an interview with Shariana Ferrer-Núñez, co-founder of La Colectiva Feminista en Contrucción, a Puerto Rican grassroots group. They were very involved in the 2019 protests that forced the resignation of Governor Ricky Roselló, protests that utilized what came to be known as “perreo combativo.” It’s a really great conversation with Shariana about their broader political work and the role of things like reggaeton and perreo in organizing. The interview is in Spanish. Featuring music by Guaynaa, Kevvo, Farruko and Ankhal. Show notes: bit.ly/48lFKAC Follow us: instagram.com/RadioMenea newsletter: bit.ly/RMjoin

  4. ENCORE: Mediopicky

    18 OCT

    ENCORE: Mediopicky

    This week, we’re re-running a conversation we had with a very special guest: Dominican rapper, producer, and podcast fave Mediopicky. We talked back in 2021 (¡en español!) about his latest releases, collaborations, growing up in a household of four women, and the wide range of music that shaped his sound. He just put out a new album, "el precio de la yuca" earlier this fall — highly recommend — and we thought it was a great time to revisit our chat.
