Raul Campos

Raul Campos guest hosts Morning Becomes Eclectic.

Junf is back with Raul and 3 danceable tracks. Two siblings from Oaxaca bring us Britpop-inspired avant garde sounds in “Bola Ora” by Valgur. A Buñuel-inspired suburban crew from the state of Mexico Unperro Andaluz brings us some relaxing psychedelia in “La Piedad.” And Daft Punk type sounds jump out in “What Should I Do with the Dreams We Left?” by Midnight Generation from Northern Mexico. Señor Discos approved. Search for “Global Beat Mexico playlist” to get all the tracks.

Junf is back with Raul to play 3 new songs for us. Modern cumbia gets an accordion twist in “Fantasma” by Rocko Paez. From the Monterrey scene, Kiddie Gang is not quite a band, not quite a collective. Their dreamy new track is “Vampiro.” And electronic DJ Ferraz channels the sounds of CDMX clubs, from disco to Venezuelan influences, in “Latin Boogie,” remixed by Derrick Mckenzie of Jamiroquai.

Junf is a DJ and music supervisor in Mexico City aka CDMX, sharing three jovial tracks with KCRW’s Raul Campos. It’s avant-garde, it’s psychedelic, it’s Mexico meets Argentina for the future with Sonido Gallo Negro’s “Bufo.” Then, dream-like vocals paired with simplistic, twangy guitar lines in “Antes” from Monstruos del Mañana. And “Discoman” from YoSoyMatt, French Braids, and Eva de Marce is the perfect track for roller skating by the beach.

Guest host Moni Saldaña showcases up-and-coming alternative gems from Mexico whose inspiration and impact transcend border lines.
