On the El Sonido: Cancioneros podcast this week… Karen y Los Remedios 🎧

From Mexico to Hong Kong, this episode follows the journey of Ana Karen Barajas—artist, historian, and frontwoman of Karen y Los Remedios—as she builds a sound that bridges slowed-down cumbia, dream pop, and psychedelia.

Albina explores Karen’s personal songbook, and how she decided to make psychedelic cumbia after emigrating from Mexico to China—finding in distance and uprootedness her creative drive.

Find the full episode wherever you podcast and watch with English subtitles on the KEXP YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=dhfacebook&utm_content=app.dashsocial.com%2Fkexp%2Flibrary%2Fmedia%2F579569192&v=fDC8tvnyid0
