  • Episodio 1: Una banda de outsiders
    Mar 10 2022
    Una banda integrada por hijos de migrantes mexicanos de Michigan fue la primera en ser descrita como “punk rock” en una revista en 1971. Los artistas latinx han sido una pieza clave en la gestación de la música punk, incluso antes de que se le llamara así. En este episodio, el guitarrista de Question Mark and the Mysterians, Bobby Balderrama, cuenta la historia detrás de la banda de “chicos mexicanos” del Michigan rural que llegaron a American Bandstand y dominaron las listas de popularidad. Pero como veremos en Punk in Translation, los Mysterians no fueron los primeros, ni los últimos, que dejaron una marca en el punk.

  • Episodio 2: “Esto es un cha cha rock”
    Mar 10 2022
    ¿Los integrantes de una banda en Perú de los sesenta son los punkeros originales? Conoceremos a Erwin Flores, el vocalista de Los Saicos. Su alarido visceral y rebelde encontró eco en la música punk. Pero además, sorprendentemente el género tiene raíces latinas tan profundas como el cha cha chá cubano que dió origen a una canción que se convirtió en un himno punk por generaciones: “Louie Louie”, versionada por Patti Smith, Black Flag y muchos más.

  • Episodio 3: Otra música: la historia latina secreta de CBGB’s
    Mar 10 2022
    ¿Sabía que la bandera de México inspiró el logotipo de los Ramones? ¿O que punkeros y punkeras cantaban en español en el legendario CBGB durante el apogeo del punk de los setenta en Nueva York? Hablamos de Arturo Vega, el artista migrante que se diseñó el logo de los Ramones que hoy circula en todo el mundo. Conocemos a la baterista, pionera y cantante puertorriqueña Rosie Rex, que pudo tocar en el CBGB mientras lidiaba con el racismo de las disqueras. Clem Burke, el baterista de Blondie, nos habla sobre cómo la música latina se infiltró en Nueva York e influyó no solo en su banda, sino también en otras figuras icónicas de la escena del CBGB.

About the Performer

Born and raised in Tijuana and now living in Los Angeles, Ceci Bastida joined the iconic Mexican ska-punk band Tijuana NO when she was just 15 and became one of the first women to rise in the ranks of contemporary Latin rock. In 2000 spent eight years as part of the touring band of acclaimed singer Julieta Venegas, including a featured role in her 2008 MTV Unplugged special. Bastida embarked on her solo career in 2006 with the ep Front BC, and in 2010 released Veo La Marea (I See the Tide), a mix of electronica, rock, and hip-hop that The Fader dubbed "bodacious, clicky, and gongy" and The Los Angeles Times described as "a marching-band traipsing through the Amazon rainforest." The album, which included hot-button songs about immigration and the drug war, featured guest spots by Diplo, Rye Rye, and Tim Armstrong. It earned her a Latin Grammy nomination, appearances on NPR’s Weekend Edition and KCRW’s Morning Become Eclectic, and a spot on the 2011 Lollapalooza bill. Her solo album, La Edad de la Violencia (The Age of Violence) was produced by Luke Top (Fool's Gold) & XXXChange (Spank Rock) and includes songs inspired by the rise of everyday violence in the US and Mexico—from the drug war to the Sandy Hook shooting and the Boston Marathon bombing—and by Haruki Murakami’s novel Kafka on the Shore. Her latest album, an EP featuring collaborations with Aloe Blacc, Mexican Institute of Sound, Spoek Mathambo, and Mariel Mariel "Sueño" is out with Nacional Records. Bastida is also a member of the all-star band Mexrrissey, a Mexican homage to the songs of Morrissey and The Smiths. She is currently finishing her fourth album.
