At the beginning of the quarantine, we dedicated ourselves to conducting a series of meetings and interviews via Zoom with artists from all over the continent. The result, which is still preserved on YouTube and in our website archives, was quite interesting and taught us a lot. We called that series of talks Castaways at Home. We later used that title for our first compilation album, which, by bringing together fifteen musical projects from all over Latin America, yielded brilliant results that we're very proud of (we hope to repeat the experience soon). But, getting back to the videos, during the editing process, there was a special task to complete the final version., and it was to find suitable historical quotes from famous people talking about music, of how important it was to them in their lives. We want to return to that task for a moment, perhaps because today we ask others to help us convey, in times of uncertainty, Why music has all the elements to save us: 

All the writers I know would prefer to be musicians.
Kurt Cobain

The music in the soul can be heard by the universe
Lao Tzu

The only truth is music.
Jack Kerouac

The musician is probably the most modest of animals, but also the proudest.
Erik Satie

Everything in the universe has rhythm, everything dances
Maya Angelou

Music soothes troubled spirits and relieves the burdens of the soul.
Miguel de Cervantes

Music is the voluptuousness of the imagination
Eugène Delacroix

Music is like an oasis in my head
River Phoenix

Music is a way to dream together and to go to another dimension
Cecilia Bartoli

And finally:

Military justice is to justice what military music is to music.
Groucho Marx

For the forty-second time in 2020, We continue to emphasize the necessity of music in our times and bring you two dozen tunes published just a few hours ago., made in Colombia, Argentina, Uruguay, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Chile and Mexico,  whose sound is related to labels such as  Pop, Fusion, Folk, Hip Hop, Electronic and Rock. Among others, we've added the new single from Pepé Mogt, the latest production of Tappan, the new publication of Naïa Valdez and the most recent recording of Neoma.

We repeat once again our favorite phrase for these kinds of occasions: Find your headphones, step away from the world and listen. This is the Zonagirante.com playlist from October 23, 2020.
