Before cell phones and the internet, if you wanted to call La Casa, you’d have to stroll into a cabina telefónica (calling center) and pay for some minutes with a few quarters.

Set in 1995, La Cabina Telefónica is a bilingual audio novela that tells the story of Matty Cardona, a Colombian immigrant who launched Matty's Llamadas y Servicios 82 to do just that. She runs the shop in Jackson Heights, Queens with her daughter Rossy and offers calling, printing, faxing, money transfers and much more to her local clients. Each episode includes a phone call in a phone booth at Matty's, with a different story about familia, love and community.

In this episode, Gavilán visits abuelo Lolo’s other best friend: don Rafa, who owns a bookstore and is the neighborhood’s unofficial historian. He tells him how this community acquired a taste for a musical style as heavily nostalgic as vallenato. Plus, Gavilán finally understand what his abuelo in particular was pining for.

In this episode, Gavilán shares the very particular style in which Colombian cumbia is danced in Monterrey. He also speaks to his abuela Yoya, who tells him how she met abuelo Lolo, back when he was an adventurous young man.

This week’s recommendation is the song “El baile del gavilán”, by Chicos de Barrio. This band isn’t from Monterrey, but from the nearby city of Torreón. But this song is a sort of manifesto for the dancing style mentioned in this episode.

In this episode, Gavilán catches up with a childhood friend, and accordionist named Paloma. She grew up listening to norteña music, and tells the story of how Lolo introduced her to vallenato, a musical style that found a new home in Monterrey, a city that already boasted a passion for the accordion.

This week’s recommendation is Los Vallenatos de la Cumbia. Founded in 1985 in Monterrey, they were the first musical group from Mexico to become commercially successful playing Colombian cumbia and vallenato. In their unique style, of course.

Until next time, with love and recuerdos.

In this episode, Gavilán wants to learn more about his abuelo, so he meets El Guacho, a vallenato musician and very close friend of Lolo’s. El Guacho tells him the story of the two rhythm instruments of cumbia and vallenato: the caja and the guacharaca, and how so many rhythms, and even a rather fortunate accident, trace their roots to these two sounds.

This week’s recommendation is the music of Gabriel Duéñez. He’s a sonidero from Monterrey, and he’s the one to thank for the “accident” that gave life to the now beloved cumbia rebajada. Visit our website, that you can find in our shownotes, for links to his music.
