We once read that blogging is totally the new deejaying. Well, if Guanabee were set to music, it might sound something like the new, two-hour, weekly “Rock Y Roll Radio” show that launched yesterday out of Austin, Tejas. Hosts Paul Saucido and Dacia Saenz play a fantastic mix of contemporary Latin music as well as some golden oldies that let you get your tradition on. Then they sandwich it all between a little Latino pop culture commentary that would have readers of this site calling each other pinches gringos in about two seconds.

With the help of their haplessly caucasian intern Andrew who mispronounced mamadas as mamitas in the first 60 seconds, (Andrew also happens to be the bass player for Edo, so we can’t expect articulacy), the first episode was recorded at the May 1st kick off to Austin’s Latino Music Month— a time when, as RRR describes it, the whole city turns beaner. The episode features an interview with Alejandro Vallejo of Vallejo including chisme about his 40 year-old brother and bandmate A.J. who’s currently boinking the 23 year-old cover model on their latest album who also stars in their latest video. Awww, some traditions transcend cultures, no? Also, they gave Guanabee a shout out, so what’s not to love? Check it out, they might play some Caifanes for you to be all street to. New shows are posted every Monday.
