No se a dónde van, ni de dónde vienen
Yo se a donde a voy, y de donde vengo

Allí, blanca, la ropa baila inquieta
Solemos saludar volviendo a casa
Cantamos juntos en torno a la mesa
Y poco a poquito la vida nos pasa

Volveré a mi tierra
A pasear sus calles y a pisar su arena
Volveré a mi tierra
Venezuela grande, querida y eterna

Volveré a mi tierra
A cantarle al mar y a la luna llena
Volveré a mi tierra
Donde está mi gente valiente y despierta

Prisiones de papel, rostros sin nombres
Viviendo en un ayer que ahora se rompe
Vendrá una luz que nos alumbre siempre
Mientras canto al cielo que nunca miente."]]>

"This Latinx Heritage Month Tiny Desk is celebrating with an 'El Tiny' takeover, featuring a wide array of artists from all corners of Latinidad.

No Venezuelan party is complete without tequeños. Whether it’s a wedding or a baptism, the cheese-filled treats are a must-have at every snack table — so it makes sense Rawayana pulled up to “El Tiny” with a box to share.

Kicking things off with hits from the band’s 2016 album, Trippy Caribbean, the Caracas-formed group brought its infectious energy and beach-infused sound to the NPR office. The reggae-groove that defined early songs soon turned into something more expansive, putting a Caraqueño spin on funk, merengue, rock and hip-hop. Rawayana’s set — which included two singles from the forthcoming album, ¿Quién trae las cornetas? — perfectly illustrated how the band’s sound stretches and plays off of musical movements from around the Caribbean diaspora to create something new altogether.

For more than a decade, Rawayana has been at the forefront of a younger generation of Venezuelan artists that grew up under the country’s socioeconomic crisis. At its Tiny Desk performance, it showcased just how much talent has come out of Venezuela during that time — bringing friends and collaborators like Apache, Irepelusa, Orestes Gómez, Joel Martínez and Eric Chacón to perform — and how much joy and gozadera is still left in store."

"Live Audiovisual Piece. Composes and performed by Mariana Martin Capriles in collaboration with Ernesto Pantin and Jimmy Flamante. Based on the color scheme from the photographic piece Mariana a.k.a Peach exhibited in the "SIMPL3 CHACAO GROUP SHOW" she then found the equivalents in hertz for each color to the corresponding musical notes and with this scale of colors and notes, they composed an audiovisual piece comprised of seven movements. This piece was performed live for the closing date of SIMPL3 CHACAO at the Centro Cultural Chacao. 2005.." (Traducción de Archivo Venezuela de la versión en inglés disponible en Vimeo).

Akapellah; Blasfem)]]> Official Video ]]> Esto no es wachi wachi]]> “Esto No Es Wachi Wachi” is a song by the Venezuelan group Bacalao Men, included on the album Sangre, released in 2018. The piece features Horacio Blanco as co-writer. The track blends the eclectic sounds that characterize the band: a fusion of salsa, pop, rock, and Caribbean rhythms, framed within a contemporary urban aesthetic. Blanco’s collaboration adds lyrical and musical depth, creating a creative dialogue between both artists on themes of identity and cultural resistance.]]> Official Video ]]> Qué chimbo]]> “Qué Chimbo” is an urban pop song by Venezuelan singer-songwriter Carmen DeLeon, released in December 2023. The work uses the Venezuelan colloquialism “chimbo”—meaning something disappointing or of poor quality—as the axis of a narrative about emotional empowerment after a failed relationship. With direct and rhythmic lyrics, the song portrays the clarity that precedes a breakup: recognizing that it is better to end things before the damage becomes irreversible. The single has been received as an anthem of self-affirmation among young listeners both in the diaspora and across the continent. The production blends reggaeton influences with elements of contemporary Latin pop.]]> Carmen DeLeon — “Qué Chimbo”

]]> Me rehúso]]> “Me rehúso” is a single by Venezuelan singer-songwriter Danny Ocean, released in 2016 and quickly becoming a global hit in Latin music. The song was born out of his migratory and personal experience, after leaving Venezuela and living through a relationship interrupted by distance. “Me rehúso” has become a generational anthem of the Venezuelan diaspora, expressing both the sense of uprootedness and the hope of reunion.]]> Danny Ocean — “Minutos” (crowd sing-along)
