Listen "56. Terror/Cactus"
Episode Synopsis
My guest on today’s show is Martin Selasco, the man behind Terror/Cactus, an electro-cumbia fusion project based in Cashmere, WA. Martin tells me about his early exposure to south american music, giving credit to his father who was in the music business when he was a child living in Miami, where he taught himself to make multitrack recordings as a preteen. We also discuss his move to Seattle and the challenges of bringing his music rooted in tradition to a predominantly white indie rock audience, the responsibility to preserve and evolve Columbian culture, why he doesn’t sing, and his new collaborations with folks who do. I spoke on the phone with Martin Selasco from his farm in Cashmere. follow Martin @terrorcactus Low Profile receives support from you on patreon.com/lowprofile as well as in-kind support fromSan Francisco Street Bakerysfsbakery.comRainy Day Records and Tapes@rainydayolympiaSchwartz’s Deli@schwartzsolympiaOld School Pizzeria@old_schoolpizzeriaScherler Easy Premium Shitty American Lagerscherlerbeer.com Check out the link above to find out more about our free summer live event series, Scherler Sundays.All previous episodes and bonus content are available at lowprofilepodcast.com
