Alt.Latino: New music and a psicodélico explainer

Alt.Latino hosts Felix Contreras and Anamaria Sayre play the new music that caught their ears this week, plus Felix delivers a deep dive into the roots of psicodélico. Featured artists and songs:• Eslabón Armado, "Esa noche" • Adrian Quesada, "Ojos Secos" (feat. Cuco)• Jessie Reyez, "**I NEVER SAID I WAS SANE**" • BALTHVS, "Year of the Snake" • Grateful Dead, "Dark Star"• Os Mutantes, "A minha menina"• Duane Eddy, "Rebel Rouser" • Valeria Castro, "debe ser" • Valeria Castro "sentimentalmente"

As he was assembling his selections this week, Felix Contreras noticed a tinge of psychedelic music references. So he put on his professor blazer, pulled out his whiteboard and traced the history of a musical reference that influenced everything from 1970s Brazilian music, Peruvian jungle cumbia and today's latest releases. (Don't worry, there will not be a quiz.

) Anamaria Sayre countered with new gems from Spain and Colombia that rendered Felix almost speechless. Featured artists and songs: Eslabón Armado, "Esa noche" Adrian Quesada, "Ojos Secos" (feat.
