pocket full of stones
so, I'm working on an as-yet untitled book about avant-latinamerikkkan musicians. a profile book with sprinkles of theory and the dust-soaked pages of history. mexicans as purveyors of remixology/showing the complexity of latin-american musicians (historically, etc). and how their music is and is not "latin-american" [whatdoesthatmean?] some names will be familiar (kid606, murcof, ricardo villalobos) others will be on the wall (dalek, cafe tacuba, cypress hill [oldstuff]). experiments&identity. scalpels&selfhood. pop sociology and anti-pop aural architecture.
any suggestions are welcomed.

its all politics.
