I know it sounds funny to say because its not a country but my family is part of the RGV diaspora in California. I've been listening to the @FuturoConjunto album all week to get me through a bit of a slump and sometimes the tracks bring me to tears thinking about the valley
@charlie_vela When listening to @LatinoUSA's episode on @FuturoConjunto! It was a needed look at southern border communities with cariño and brought into focus the joy of living in a vibrant region where many cultures interact and create something new.

The multimedia sci-fi album @FuturoConjunto draws from the history and musical traditions of the Rio Grande Valley to create an imagined future. @charlie_vela: “What are the things that artists of 100 years from now are going to be taking from the past?”

I didn’t know what #AstroBachata was until today but now that I’ve heard it I don’t want to live in a time period without it.
