The song itself is a beloved regional Mexican party piece, and Carín’s live version with Los Honorables has become one of the recordings most closely associated with his rise as a powerhouse vocalist who can move between tradition, humor, bravado, and emotional command. Spotify lists La Boda del Huitlacoche - En Vivo by Carín León and Los Honorables as a 2020 track, while YouTube versions connected to Borrachera Con Los Honorables have drawn massive attention. The song also remained part of Carín León’s live setlists during later international appearances, including his 2025 Madrid date.\nThe charm of La Boda Del Huitlacoche is in its comic surrealism and collective energy. A huitlacoche wedding is already a strange and folkloric image, but in Carín’s hands the song becomes a full-room celebration. His voice pushes the performance beyond novelty; he sings with force, timing, and an instinctive understanding of how regional music lives in public space. This is music for shouting along, dancing badly, laughing loudly, and letting the band carry the room into controlled disorder.\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/track/7ewyZwEMNtt0lqtucOD4vs", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653568, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653568/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:56:15-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3653567, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653567/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:54:24-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Las flores", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "1bb2421a-0c05-41be-ad38-36133a0d03f5", "artist": "Café Tacvba", "artist_ids": [ "c2b37a39-c66a-44b2-b190-a69485ae5d95" ], "album": "Re", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "05548ae5-6e3d-3e7b-baee-5e03a80fe5d2", "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "1994-07-22", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Café Tacvba’s “Las Flores” is one of the defining songs of Latin alternative rock, blending emotional vulnerability with inventive, genre-bending production. Released in 1992 on their self-titled debut album Café Tacvba, the track helped establish the band as key figures in Mexico’s emerging rock en español movement. Built around shimmering guitar lines, dynamic rhythm shifts, and Rubén Albarrán’s expressive vocal delivery, the song moves between tenderness and intensity while exploring themes of love, memory, and emotional contradiction. Its structure resists convention, unfolding with a fluidity that mirrors the unpredictability of feeling itself, making “Las Flores” both intimate and enduringly influential in the band’s catalog.\n\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/search/cafe%20tacvba%20las%20flores", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653566, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653566/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:48:50-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/67fe91ba-48b9-4cf9-ab15-a5c3f0e4bc80/7207434280-500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/67fe91ba-48b9-4cf9-ab15-a5c3f0e4bc80/7207434280-250.jpg", "song": "La Llorona", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "22bdd736-de6c-41e7-96dc-051ff5ef2e4e", "artist": "Caifanes", "artist_ids": [ "77814bfb-f1b0-47fd-8492-65d6f72c246d" ], "album": "El nervio del volcán", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "41906597-361c-3501-b53f-5bd12be36316", "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "1994-06-28", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Caifanes’ “La Llorona” reimagines a traditional Mexican folk lament through the band’s signature blend of rock atmospherics and emotional intensity. Released in 1994 on El Silencio, the track transforms the well-known canción into something stark, haunting, and deeply modern, anchored by Saúl Hernández’s impassioned vocal delivery. Sparse instrumentation gives the song space to breathe, allowing the weight of the lyrics and the legend of La Llorona to settle into a dark, reverberant atmosphere. Caifanes approach the material with reverence but also urgency, bridging ancestral storytelling with alternative rock sensibilities in a way that feels both timeless and deeply rooted in Mexican musical identity.\n\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/search/caifanes%20la%20llorona", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653565, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653565/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:44:48-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "nunca pudimos decirnos adiós", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Encarta 98", "artist_ids": [ "ebab51df-621d-4ea1-94e5-6a8448a4ef19" ], "album": "nunca pudimos decirnos adiós", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2026-04-08", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "nunca pudimos decirnos adiós by Encarta 98 carries the emotional weight of an unfinished ending. The title is direct and devastating: “we could never say goodbye.” Public information on Encarta 98 is limited, so the song should be approached through verified release details and the feeling established by the title rather than unsupported biography. Spotify and Apple Music list nunca pudimos decirnos adiós as a 2026 single by Encarta 98, with a runtime of 4 minutes and 46 seconds; Audiomack lists its release date as April 8, 2026 and credits Luis Felipe Torres as producer.\nThat length gives the song room to inhabit absence rather than simply announce it. The phrase “we could never say goodbye” suggests a wound left open not because love disappeared, but because language failed at the crucial moment. It could be about romance, friendship, death, distance, or the strange unfinished business of memory. The song’s strength lies in that universality. Some farewells are dramatic; others never happen at all, and those are often the ones that echo the longest. Encarta 98 turns that silence into a title that already feels like a confession.\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/track/4bt56N7OtlHcwZNptZo1ba", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653564, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653564/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:31:36-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/549efad1-6215-4dcb-bd16-9d896fc3f56a/6626911574-500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://coverartarchive.org/release/549efad1-6215-4dcb-bd16-9d896fc3f56a/6626911574-250.jpg", "song": "What’s Holding You?", "track_id": null, "recording_id": "2ffd7df3-6536-4ab0-a592-a4a88dd99093", "artist": "Lorelle Meets the Obsolete", "artist_ids": [ "0e826d93-0b1c-46c9-b1ce-d3b5a8e567ca" ], "album": "Chambers", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": "ebb0ad63-58a2-4174-9e71-5b620a6bb003", "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2014-02-01", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Lorelle Meets The Obsolete’s “What’s Holding You?” moves through a dense, dreamlike blend of psych rock, shoegaze, and experimental textures, where repetition becomes a form of emotional drift. Released in 2017 on the album Balance, the track builds slowly, layering reverb-drenched guitars, pulsating rhythms, and submerged vocals into a swirling, immersive atmosphere. The Mexico-based duo (now trio) have long explored the space between structure and disintegration, and this song captures that tension with particular clarity. Its title reads like a question suspended in time, and the music answers not with resolution, but with movement, texture, and a deep sense of introspective momentum.\n\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/search/lorelle%20meets%20the%20obsolete%20whats%20holding%20you", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653563, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653563/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:28:07-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Vete!!", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Shifters!!!", "artist_ids": [], "album": "Vete!!", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2025-01-23", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Vete! by Shifters!! has the clean, immediate force of a door being slammed before the argument can become sentimental. Public information on Shifters!! remains limited, so the safest reading begins with the release itself: Apple Music and Spotify list Vete! as a 2025 single, with related tracks like Rabia, Estamos Bien, and No Voy a Parar! forming a small catalog of direct emotional language. Those titles suggest a project drawn to urgency, conflict, resilience, and refusal. Vete! is built around one of the simplest commands in Spanish: leave. That simplicity is part of its power. The word can be petty, liberating, exhausted, or furious depending on how it is delivered, and a punk or alternative-rock setting gives it the physicality it deserves. The song feels like a release valve, turning the final word of a conversation into the first beat of a track. Without needing elaborate biography, Shifters!! make the emotion legible through momentum. Vete! is not subtle, and it does not need to be. Some songs are built for nuance; others are built to clear the room. Apple Music and Spotify list Vete! as a 2025 single by Shifters!! and identify Rabia, Estamos Bien, and No Voy a Parar! among the project’s other songs.\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/track/2Tq4sUb9YOB2Fa3wNVpMeJ", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653562, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653562/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:26:03-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "NO LO VOY A DEVOLVER", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "COMEVIDRIO", "artist_ids": [], "album": "LOBOTOMIA GRATIS", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2026-04-23", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "COMEVIDRIO’s NO LO VOY A DEVOLVER sounds like a declaration shouted from the middle of a mess: funny, stubborn, abrasive, and immediately physical. Public information around the duo describes COMEVIDRIO as a minimal, hard-hitting project with a debut album titled LOBOTOMÍA GRATIS, framed as thirteen sharp, energetic, unfiltered manifesto-songs. Their own link hub uses language that is even more direct, calling the project an angry, messy duo “del ciclón,” a phrase that helps place the band’s personality somewhere between punk sarcasm and local chaos. NO LO VOY A DEVOLVER fits that world. The title suggests refusal, theft, memory, debt, or emotional pettiness, but the strength of the phrase is how casual it feels. It is not a grand philosophical statement; it is a line someone might yell during a fight, then turn into a hook because the feeling is too good to waste. The track’s power comes from that kind of immediacy. COMEVIDRIO do not sound interested in smoothing out the edges. They use them as the point. Public sources list NO LO VOY A DEVOLVER as a COMEVIDRIO single and describe the band’s debut album as filosa, enérgica, and sin filtro.\nListen: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5wwTogR7dwCv68JQWJ5I5y", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3653561, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3653561/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-11T21:24:37-07:00", "show": 66694, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66694/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Torreta", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Margaritas Podridas", "artist_ids": [ "599f26bc-ccdf-46e3-87a4-350532f782f8" ], "album": "Metales Pesados", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2026-03-06", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Torreta captures Margaritas Podridas in short, violent focus. The Hermosillo band has become one of the most internationally visible names in the current Mexican underground, with a sound that pulls from punk, shoegaze, grunge, noise, and blown-out melodic aggression. Their songs often feel like they are burning through the speakers while still protecting something vulnerable at the center. Torreta, released in 2025, lasts barely a minute and a half, which makes its impact feel especially concentrated. The title suggests a turret, a defensive structure, a rotating weapon, or a lookout point: something built to watch and fire. That imagery suits the band’s style. Margaritas Podridas often sound like they are defending a private world with distortion, turning sweetness into shrapnel and youth into threat. The Apple Music credits list Carolina Enríquez on lead vocals and composition alongside Rafael Armenta, which anchors the track in the band’s core creative force. Torreta does not need length to establish atmosphere. It works like a flare: brief, hot, and impossible to ignore.
