Kinky, hailing from Monterrey, Mexico, became pioneers in the Latin electronic music scene, and this track highlights their fusion of vibrant, danceable beats with deeply personal lyrics.\n\n\"Soun Tha Mi Primer Amor\" tells the story of first love, wrapped in the metaphor of sound as a symbol of the intense emotions that accompany such a profound experience. The track’s lively energy is driven by a pulsing electronic bass, layered with traditional Latin grooves, creating a mix of modern and nostalgic. The lyrical theme of youthful infatuation and the intoxicating feeling of a first crush is universal, yet it retains a distinctly Latin flair through its instrumentation.\n\nThe song was an instant hit, becoming one of Kinky's most beloved tracks and helping to solidify their place in the Latin music scene as innovative creators who could merge genres while staying true to their roots.\n\nSpotify link:\nhttps://open.spotify.com/track/6PTz2OrVyzZlARtqEfvbFz", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3547679, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3547679/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-01T19:19:35-07:00", "show": 64449, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64449/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Flecha – justoese Remix", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Titán", "artist_ids": [ "5944659d-8479-44b0-86ce-b327e969988c" ], "album": null, "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": null, "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "In this remix, justoese reshapes Titán’s electro-rock quirkiness into a darker club-ready odyssey.

Fase was a Mexican electropop trio—vocalist Alma Velasco alongside brothers Peter and Hans Warner—who masterfully blended elements of trip-hop, house, Latin rhythms, and electronic pulse to craft their distinct, atmospheric sound.\n\n“Acapulco 78” unfolds like a sun-drenched daydream. The lyrics paint a poetic scene: the singer wakes and still feels as though they're dreaming, hearing the ocean’s call and feeling the salty breeze’s kiss as they fling open the window. There’s a sense of idealized peace—no dirty dishes in the kitchen, no troubling news—just dancing, music in the streets, and a world where “everything has its place.”\n\nAs the day progresses, the mood remains light and celebratory: a stroll to the beach before sunset, the sun calling, reflections seen in other people’s eyes, playful anticipation of meeting someone in a bar, perhaps over a martini, and the rising moon turning the world into “a carnival.” The song captures a longing for escape, joy, and belonging in a serene, almost cinematic moment.\n\nMusically, the track runs about 3 minutes and 48 seconds and is set at a brisk tempo of approximately 157 BPM, in the key of F minor—edges toward upbeat, but still carries that dreamy, electronic-lush vibe.\n\nhttps://open.spotify.com/track/0W6hdHUDorCBQH6kDJNSiZ", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3547672, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3547672/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-01T18:58:57-07:00", "show": 64448, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64448/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Phakade Lami", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Da Capo", "artist_ids": [ "70f44b56-d358-4dd0-a0df-c0a61950e5a7" ], "album": null, "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": null, "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": null, "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3547671, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3547671/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-01T18:56:16-07:00", "show": 64448, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64448/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3547670, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3547670/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-01T18:51:42-07:00", "show": 64448, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64448/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/2ccb86b2-a5bf-49c4-853d-7c9f78344f42/32304157656-500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/2ccb86b2-a5bf-49c4-853d-7c9f78344f42/32304157656-250.jpg", "song": "Runnin’", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "9b240f72-c82c-460a-b2c0-ab9c74e79aaa", "artist": "The Pharcyde", "artist_ids": [ "d7134426-a937-43bf-bc54-f10ad8102ed9" ], "album": "Labcabincalifornia", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "d0dc0be5-53ec-3810-8683-ba1dfac644f8", "labels": [ "Delicious Vinyl" ], "label_ids": [ "fa21d4fc-2f5b-48df-9f70-066f0d8cfc3e" ], "release_date": "1995-11-14", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "On this track from The Pharcyde's 1995 'Labcabincalifornia', producer J.
