This is a particular selection by Mestizo Sounds of music produced in Spain. The scope of the music covers from pop to dance with hip hop, flamenco rumba and rock. Mostly uptempo beat but also a couple of mid-tempo tunes with great lyrics (in Spanish). BLURB: "Spanish Bombs" was a song by the Clash in the essential album “London Calling”. Since then this has been the title adopted by some music compilers to select some of the most remarkable Spanish Music. My selection is based on my formative years as a music fan. Some of the tracks are from the era known in Spain as “La Movida”. This is a period between the late seventies and mid-eighties when the young people free of the political oppression brought by the dictatorship once Franco died in 1975 expressed themselves through music with the creation of hundreds of record Indi labels and bands influenced by the Punk and Post Punk movement in the UK and US. I have included a native style of music such as rumba Flamenca, always part of the most popular Spanish music played on the radio, especially in the summer season, with the classic song of A Chili Pu by Dolores Vargas “La Terremoto” from 1971. There is also a new millenium take on rumba with the track "Vacileo" produced by Macaco, a notable contemporary solo artist, who was a member of the internationally acclaimed band Ojos de Brujo. Extremoduro is one of the greatest bands of Spanish rock music. Their hard rock music influenced by Frank Zappa has always had a very strong lyrical aspect. Pop, Hip hop and Dance music are also included by various artists in most of the cases from this millennium.
