Con el viento a mi favor

Con el viento a mi favor
Seamos siempre tan puros
Con el viento a mi favor
Seamos siempre en este momento

We cordially welcome on our radiowaves Talia Vega Leon – creative director, curator, and co-founder of Radical Sounds Latin America, a Berlin-based platform dedicated to showcasing groundbreaking Latin American talent in sound, performance, and theory. To ourSAVVYZΛΛR series Rippling Otherwise, she contributes the sonic piece Con el viento a mi favor / With the wind in my favor. It is a selection of songs from her hometown of Lima, Peru, accompanied by a short extract of a song she wrote in the form of spoken word. Returning to Lima always brings equal measures of joy and pain. She asks herself: Are these tears of sadness, or are they tears of happiness? Either way, she returns – because in Lima, she remembers what it means to be alive.
