Recording: Los Poetas

Artist: Los Poetas

Song: unknown*

Recorded at The Music Gallery @ 918 Bathurst (X Avant XIII – Night 3), October 11, 2018.

Los Poetas - unknown

Originally slated as a release party for this local crew's new Ajpu album, the night ended up being a "pre-release" celebration (with copies of a new mixtape previewing the album given to all) but that took away none of the power of this set anchoring a night of beats and hip-hop at the X Avant Festival. The three MC's plus one DJ were backed by a four-piece band bringing a variety of groovy Latin American styles to life behind the group's bilingual boom-bap delivery. Really fabulous stuff, and an excellent introduction to a crowd that might be seeking their boundary-pushing music in other places.

* Does anyone know the title to this one? Please leave a comment!
