New Music Highlights Show Nuances Of Identity

Summer's almost over so we present new sounds and three premieres from upcoming albums.

Last week's Midsummer 2018 New Music Roundup didn't even put a dent in the mail bag full of new music that has arrived here at Alt.Latino World Headquarters. So here we are with Part Two.

Again, the theme this week is music that presents an opportunity for us to think about the term "Latin music". And to make things a little more interesting, we're premiering three unreleased tracks on this week's episode to give you a first listen.
