I don't know about where you are, but here in D.C., it's hot. And if you're looking for a way to beat the summer heat, _Alt.Latino_'s midsummer roundup of new music will
do the trick! Well, OK, not really — these tracks won't do anything about the heat. That was just some old-fashioned radio promotion language. (That stuff slips out of me now and then.)
But what _is_ true is that the _Alt.Latino_ mailbag is overflowing with great new tunes. So in between a bunch of interviews and all the music-festival coverage we have planned for later in
the summer, we're sharing the love with a sampler of new music — from the latest indie rock to a newly released track from a grand maestro of Cuban music. Grab your favorite cool
