00:00:00,577 --> 00:00:05,577
Hello and welcome to this week's special Latin episode of Uncle Dad Talks,

2
00:00:05,577 --> 00:00:08,517
or I guess someone people would say, what is that, Bobby Theo?

3
00:00:08,677 --> 00:00:09,497
I don't know. What do you think, Mike?

4
00:00:10,897 --> 00:00:15,377
Sounds good to me. Yes. Both. All. Yes to all.

5
00:00:15,577 --> 00:00:19,277
Is there one other than Mike Hampton? Mike, say hello as always.

6
00:00:19,897 --> 00:00:24,217
Hello, hello, hello. You mean hola. Hola, hola.

7
00:00:26,917 --> 00:00:30,037
We have a very special guest today. I'm very excited about this.

8
00:00:30,257 --> 00:00:33,037
We don't really, you know what's, Mike, I think what I love about this show

9
00:00:33,037 --> 00:00:37,377
is that we do so many different diverse acts, right, from all walks of life.

10
00:00:37,437 --> 00:00:39,217
We always say that, right? When you and I talk about the show,

11
00:00:39,317 --> 00:00:40,357
we always say all walks of life.

12
00:00:40,817 --> 00:00:44,077
And, you know, we don't get a lot of Latinx people on the show.

13
00:00:44,157 --> 00:00:48,017
So it's very exciting for me also being Latinx, having Latinx people on the show.

14
00:00:48,117 --> 00:00:51,957
So without further ado, let's give it up for Martin from Tarot Cactus.

15
00:00:52,097 --> 00:00:54,397
How are you? Good. Thank you guys for having me.

16
00:00:55,057 --> 00:00:58,457
Thank you for being here. first and foremost for our audience who don't know

17
00:00:58,457 --> 00:01:02,237
who you are and what you do can you tell us a little bit about you and your

18
00:01:02,237 --> 00:01:06,657
musical project yeah my musical project is called terror cactus,

19
00:01:07,177 --> 00:01:10,237
terror cactus and i make

20
00:01:10,237 --> 00:01:12,897
psychedelic cumbia mixed with

21
00:01:12,897 --> 00:01:15,877
electronica i also like to mix in other latin

22
00:01:15,877 --> 00:01:19,557
american folk styles and yeah

23
00:01:19,557 --> 00:01:24,817
oh man i i love that i think my favorite word is psychedelic i think microgreens

24
00:01:24,817 --> 00:01:30,317
so really i'm just curious you know you know i'm sure you've probably answered

25
00:01:30,317 --> 00:01:34,117
this before but just to kind of get us going here is where does how does someone

26
00:01:34,117 --> 00:01:36,437
get kind of into psychedelic cumbia.

27
00:01:37,785 --> 00:01:42,285
Yeah, I think, you know, I've always been, for me, music was always a way of

28
00:01:42,285 --> 00:01:44,485
connecting with my cultural heritage.

29
00:01:45,105 --> 00:01:52,025
I guess I should back up. But I was born in Argentina and moved to Miami as a very little kid.

30
00:01:52,545 --> 00:01:57,905
And I always, you know, would connect with the music. For me,

31
00:01:57,925 --> 00:02:03,925
like music was a way that I would connect to, you know, to the part of me that is in Argentina.

32
00:02:04,185 --> 00:02:10,005
And in the 90s, the cumbia that was popular in Argentina was like cumbia vijera,

33
00:02:10,185 --> 00:02:13,185
which is like almost like gangster rap cumbia.

34
00:02:13,185 --> 00:02:16,265
So that was my introduction to like cumbia at first

35
00:02:16,265 --> 00:02:18,965
and then like the psychedelic stuff came later as i

36
00:02:18,965 --> 00:02:23,205
came into adulthood and uh yeah discovered

37
00:02:23,205 --> 00:02:26,145
like peruvian psychedelic cumbia from the 60s and

38
00:02:26,145 --> 00:02:31,505
70s like los mitlos and los estrellos and bands like that yeah that's great

39
00:02:31,505 --> 00:02:36,745
i mean like it's it's fun that you know when we we move somewhere we're always

40
00:02:36,745 --> 00:02:41,885
still kind of tied to the roots to where we're originally from and music is

41
00:02:41,885 --> 00:02:43,345
often one of those things, right?

42
00:02:43,505 --> 00:02:47,105
You know, like I'm originally from New Orleans and no matter where I'm at,

43
00:02:47,205 --> 00:02:52,785
like I'm always tied to the feeling of New Orleans jazz and the brass bands.

44
00:02:53,225 --> 00:02:58,165
And so in Miami, obviously there's a huge, I mean, the music scene out there

45
00:02:58,165 --> 00:03:00,625
is huge. Is that where you kind of got started? Yeah.

46
00:03:02,163 --> 00:03:07,003
How did it start for you? Like doing DJ music or were you starting to make your

47
00:03:07,003 --> 00:03:09,843
own beats from the jump? How did it start for you out there?

48
00:03:10,643 --> 00:03:16,003
Well, you know, as a teenager, I was into like punk rock and stuff like that and playing guitar.

49
00:03:16,263 --> 00:03:21,363
And, you know, as a kid, I learned piano. But I think one of the influences,

50
00:03:21,623 --> 00:03:27,003
just to give you even more background, is my family in Argentina had a record

51
00:03:27,003 --> 00:03:34,483
label that had a lot of folk artists and a lot of rock from the 70s.

52
00:03:36,623 --> 00:03:40,243
I've never, to be honest with you, before I was presented with this opportunity

53
00:03:40,243 --> 00:03:42,903
here, I never really heard music like this. And I have to tell you,

54
00:03:42,963 --> 00:03:48,003
it really connected with me in a very unique way because it was like feeling

55
00:03:48,003 --> 00:03:49,723
my Latin roots coming out.

56
00:03:49,823 --> 00:03:57,463
But I'm very big into psychedelic recreational use, I'm just going to be honest, as we are on this show.

57
00:03:57,963 --> 00:04:00,083
And last night, I took a little microdose.

58
00:04:00,663 --> 00:04:05,643
And let me tell you, man, I could feel that I was a part of something bigger.

59
00:04:05,643 --> 00:04:11,883
So I'm curious, when you make your music and that vibe, do you ever find yourself

60
00:04:11,883 --> 00:04:14,643
thinking, hey, I'm trying to connect this to something larger,

61
00:04:14,803 --> 00:04:16,983
or I just want you to feel the vibe?

62
00:04:17,863 --> 00:04:20,163
Awesome. And before we go, any last questions, Mike?

63
00:04:21,903 --> 00:04:31,363
Well, my deepest connection to psychedelics is with plant medicine from South America.

64
00:04:31,363 --> 00:04:39,803
And I would imagine having your music with some of that journey would be a really intense one.

65
00:04:39,863 --> 00:04:45,983
So maybe if that ever arises, I'll send you a note and let you know how it goes.

66
00:04:48,963 --> 00:04:50,783
Yeah, that sounds great.

67
00:04:52,923 --> 00:04:55,643
All right, everybody, we'll be right back after this break.

68
00:04:56,429 --> 00:04:59,429
Hey, everyone. This is Uncle Dad here with a quick little break.

69
00:04:59,609 --> 00:05:01,989
So I want to let you guys know, I was relatively transparent here.

70
00:05:02,129 --> 00:05:04,309
We had a little bit of audio issues here.

71
00:05:04,409 --> 00:05:07,689
So you're not going to get the entire interview. As you noticed, that was pretty quick.

72
00:05:08,009 --> 00:05:11,829

73

114
00:08:21,483 --> 00:08:24,023
Not if you go to bed early, because people were saying to me,

115
00:08:24,123 --> 00:08:28,523
hey, come to this place. It's really get started jumping off at around 3 a.m.

116
00:08:30,943 --> 00:08:33,323
I was like, oh, well, I'll be asleep.

117
00:08:37,323 --> 00:08:39,783
See, Mike, for all you know, you could have missed one of her shows.

118
00:08:40,083 --> 00:08:41,823
I probably did. I probably did.

119
00:08:47,663 --> 00:08:50,723
Let's talk about for our audience that doesn't don't know who you are.

120
00:08:50,723 --> 00:08:53,303
Or can you just tell them a little bit about yourself and the kind of music you make?

121
00:08:53,923 --> 00:09:01,143
Yes, of course. Okay, Paua is a project from Mexico City that started during the pandemic.

122
00:09:01,963 --> 00:09:08,443
It's my solo project because I have another project that is mostly of cumbia,

123
00:09:08,443 --> 00:09:12,703
neocumbia, that I had with my brother, that is Sotomayor, is my last name.

124
00:09:13,643 --> 00:09:20,483
And when I started this one, it was for me more intimate and more feminine and

125
00:09:20,483 --> 00:09:22,643
it's like more global rhythms.

126
00:09:22,823 --> 00:09:30,663
Like it has a bit more of like folk-tronic and also a bit of bulleringue, cumbia, dembow.

127
00:09:30,743 --> 00:09:33,223
There's a lot of things going on in the music.

128
00:09:33,343 --> 00:09:37,103
And I have a lot of collaborations with other artists from Latin America.

129
00:09:37,343 --> 00:09:42,023
So I have people from Colombia and also Dominican Republic, Cuba,

130
00:09:42,183 --> 00:09:46,603
and a lot of people that it has been also in the alternative scene.

131
00:09:46,603 --> 00:09:50,223
Seen and for me was also a

132
00:09:50,223 --> 00:09:53,103
window to to open my music to

133
00:09:53,103 --> 00:09:59,123
other rhythms and to other influences and also to their cultures and roots so

134
00:09:59,123 --> 00:10:06,163
i i love the albums that i have made i have the four different materials that

135
00:10:06,163 --> 00:10:12,943
i have you know platforms and right now i am doing my first tour in the U.S. and also in Canada.

136
00:10:13,683 --> 00:10:20,543
And I am really happy and super excited because it's a lot of work to do a tour. And also...

137
00:10:21,798 --> 00:10:25,018
Yeah, for me, it's the first time also that I am in Canada.

138
00:10:25,138 --> 00:10:30,418
And right now I am going to play tomorrow in Ottawa. I played yesterday in Montreal.

139
00:10:30,878 --> 00:10:37,278
So, yeah, it's really good. And also I came to this tour with two of different

140
00:10:37,278 --> 00:10:39,278
friends that they are from the U.S.

141
00:10:39,318 --> 00:10:43,098
One of them is from Seattle and the other guy is from New York.

142
00:10:43,478 --> 00:10:46,678
And they are amazing musicians. musicians

143
00:10:46,678 --> 00:10:49,718
and it's really cool to have this kind of

144
00:10:49,718 --> 00:10:53,318
artist with me in company and yeah

145
00:10:53,318 --> 00:10:56,178
so I guess that also for the people that

146
00:10:56,178 --> 00:10:59,278
doesn't know yet my project I

147
00:10:59,278 --> 00:11:02,598
know that they are going to like it too much because it has

148
00:11:02,598 --> 00:11:05,938
a lot of diversity music that

149
00:11:05,938 --> 00:11:08,718
it's like chill and it's also

150
00:11:08,718 --> 00:11:12,378
down tempo so I guess that it's music for

151
00:11:12,378 --> 00:11:15,698
all kinds of moments so yeah

152
00:11:15,698 --> 00:11:18,558
oh yeah i like that you say it's music

153
00:11:18,558 --> 00:11:21,538
for all kinds of moments so we just talked to terry cactus

154
00:11:21,538 --> 00:11:24,538
and you know his music is very on the psychedelic side

155
00:11:24,538 --> 00:11:27,318
and i feel like your music can be in between that

156
00:11:27,318 --> 00:11:30,138
sometimes and so what i love about this whole entire show is

157
00:11:30,138 --> 00:11:33,058
that it's just going to be a good time if i'm on psychedelics am i

158
00:11:33,058 --> 00:11:39,058
right about saying in that mic uh yeah

159
00:11:39,058 --> 00:11:45,178
so so yeah so power so like when you go to record music so do you have like

160
00:11:45,178 --> 00:11:50,478
a ritual or routine that gets you set up or is it just kind of like when you

161
00:11:50,478 --> 00:11:56,118
feel a melody or a song or a lyric you just start from there and then let it

162
00:11:56,118 --> 00:11:58,878
grow like what would be like an example.

163
00:11:59,618 --> 00:12:04,698
Yeah, I guess that I don't have a ritual, like, yeah, like steps to do music.

164
00:12:04,818 --> 00:12:09,978
But something that I really like to do is that when I am maybe on the street

165
00:12:09,978 --> 00:12:13,738
and I hear something that is like, oh, this kind of sound is interesting.

166
00:12:13,918 --> 00:12:22,358
I try to record it. So in my notes, in the cell phone, and also to have incidental stops and sounds.

167
00:12:22,358 --> 00:12:29,018
And I try to also play a lot with nature and it's also something that I can

168
00:12:29,018 --> 00:12:32,678
try to modify the sound and also to use with the production.

169
00:12:32,978 --> 00:12:35,938
And many times that happens also with the lyrics.

170
00:12:36,158 --> 00:12:44,358
I try to record something and then I try to grow that idea to see how can this

171
00:12:44,358 --> 00:12:46,158
try to go somewhere else.

172
00:12:46,578 --> 00:12:51,558
And also I try to do a lot of music with other musicians

173
00:12:51,858 --> 00:12:58,218
because I am more into song camps right now because you have different brains

174
00:12:58,218 --> 00:13:03,878
and different people that is working in some idea that is like just in that

175
00:13:03,878 --> 00:13:05,858
moment, like growing in that moment.

176
00:13:06,118 --> 00:13:14,718
And that's great because you have a lot of feedback, like in the way that you are doing music.

177
00:13:15,618 --> 00:13:20,918
And it's something that in the experiment is super helpful. So, yeah.

178
00:13:21,690 --> 00:13:26,110
I guess that. I love that. I love that. So when you come to the U.S.,

179
00:13:26,110 --> 00:13:28,730
have you, well, first off, have you been to the U.S. ever before?

180
00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:30,870
Or is this just the first time, first U.S. tour?

181
00:13:31,390 --> 00:13:35,490
Yes, yes, yes. Also with my other project, I came, I guess the first time that

182
00:13:35,490 --> 00:13:41,090
I went to the, like, to the first gig, it was like 2015.

183
00:13:42,290 --> 00:13:48,270
And I met a lot of things in L.A., like Viva Pomona and other stuff in Chicago,

184
00:13:48,470 --> 00:13:51,970
in the Navy Pier, and a lot of things. and it was really great.

185
00:13:52,350 --> 00:13:57,610
But this is my first tour that is of a lot of dates in the U.S.

186
00:13:57,610 --> 00:13:59,130
For this project that is Paua.

187
00:13:59,190 --> 00:14:02,890
And I have with this project three years. So it's a young project.

188
00:14:03,790 --> 00:14:08,490
That's incredible. So what, so far, what has been your favorite city you've performed?

189
00:14:09,290 --> 00:14:14,190
Right now, well, I had a lot of fun in Cleveland and also yesterday that we played in Montreal.

190
00:14:14,450 --> 00:14:18,910
It was really great. It was my first time in Montreal and they have beautiful

191
00:14:18,910 --> 00:14:25,450
cities. So I guess it is like very similar to like Williamsburg.

192
00:14:25,530 --> 00:14:29,010
It's that kind of neighborhoods that they are like, I don't know,

193
00:14:29,070 --> 00:14:33,690
like that kind of architecture, but with another kind of European style.

194
00:14:33,910 --> 00:14:34,890
So it's really beautiful.

195
00:14:35,330 --> 00:14:39,850
And also they have a lot of art. There's like a lot of festivals that they are

196
00:14:39,850 --> 00:14:41,090
going on at the same time.

197
00:14:41,230 --> 00:14:46,590
So you have different disciplines that it's like music, Then you have like graffiti

198
00:14:46,590 --> 00:14:49,430
and you have a lot of circus stuff.

199
00:14:49,630 --> 00:14:53,750
And yeah, like they are like really related with a lot of art.

200
00:14:53,890 --> 00:14:59,770
And that's something that makes all the energy of the place super special.

201
00:15:00,750 --> 00:15:04,130
Yeah. Montreal is a beautiful, artistic city.

202
00:15:04,270 --> 00:15:10,610
And, you know, it's very, you know, it's in Quebec. So it's very French speaking and it's a fun mix.

203
00:15:10,610 --> 00:15:16,090
Have you tried being in Canada especially that part tried eating the poutine

204
00:15:16,090 --> 00:15:21,750
have you heard about it yet I didn't I didn't try it but a lot of people told

205
00:15:21,750 --> 00:15:23,270
me like oh this thing is amazing,

206
00:15:23,930 --> 00:15:29,710
but there's a dish that is also really good that is called the goulash that

207
00:15:29,710 --> 00:15:36,890
is like meat but with sour cream and potatoes too like fried potatoes and it's

208
00:15:36,890 --> 00:15:40,130
it's it's a heavy dish but it's good,

209
00:15:41,190 --> 00:15:42,890
how are the how are the tacos out there.

210
00:15:44,510 --> 00:15:49,650
Do they have them there I think they have them there I didn't try them I don't

211
00:15:49,650 --> 00:15:52,110
want to have a yeah I don't I don't,

212
00:15:52,884 --> 00:15:58,824
Yes. No. I always... It's easy for Pastor. Ooh.

213
00:16:00,304 --> 00:16:04,164
Whenever I travel, I always try to try, like, internationally,

214
00:16:04,464 --> 00:16:06,944
I always want to try somebody's tacos. Like, I've been in Japan,

215
00:16:06,964 --> 00:16:10,964
and, you know, it probably sounds dumb, but I tried, I had to try the tacos

216
00:16:10,964 --> 00:16:12,724
in Japan, and they were horrible.

217
00:16:15,864 --> 00:16:17,024
Well, yes. Yes.

218
00:16:20,204 --> 00:16:27,584
I tried tacos also Also in London, like in, I guess there is like a very well-known

219
00:16:27,584 --> 00:16:31,344
chain that it's called Oaxacas. That's the name of the tacos.

220
00:16:31,784 --> 00:16:36,244
And they were like a total deception for me. Like, man, this is not a taco.

221
00:16:38,144 --> 00:16:43,704
But yeah, I am Mexican. So it's really difficult to have that level.

222
00:16:44,904 --> 00:16:48,784
Yeah. Mike, I think my next podcast is going to be a tacos podcast.

223
00:16:50,644 --> 00:16:59,004
Well, yeah. If you're living in Mexico City, you don't want some other country's watered-down taco.

224
00:16:59,264 --> 00:17:04,144
It's just not worth it, right? You come from where the best street tacos are. Yeah.

225
00:17:08,644 --> 00:17:12,024
Talking about where you're going on your tour, you're going to be headed to

226
00:17:12,024 --> 00:17:15,944
Mill Valley. And Mill Valley is a lovely, lovely town in the Bay Area.

227
00:17:16,284 --> 00:17:19,464
You have never been to Mill Valley, or have you been there before?

228
00:17:19,464 --> 00:17:21,404
No, it's going to be my first time.

229
00:17:22,964 --> 00:17:26,044
Absolutely beautiful place. Let's go and dance.

230
00:17:27,484 --> 00:17:31,404
Yes. Let's go and dance. Absolutely. This venue you're going to,

231
00:17:31,464 --> 00:17:34,064
Sweetwater Music Hall, is a legendary venue.

232
00:17:35,464 --> 00:17:38,644
Great intimate venue. Mike was just talking about it with Terracactus of how

233
00:17:38,644 --> 00:17:40,584
it's such an intimate space.

234
00:17:41,084 --> 00:17:44,644
So I think, and your music is going to, it does feel very intimate.

235
00:17:44,704 --> 00:17:49,764
It does feel very connective. So I feel like when you do your thing there,

236
00:17:49,924 --> 00:17:53,144
I think Middle Valley is in for quite the treat, if you will.

237
00:17:53,584 --> 00:18:00,244
Yeah, and I am super excited because also we are going with three projects that are amazing.

238
00:18:00,584 --> 00:18:04,904
I have been doing music with Terror Cactus like maybe for three years,

239
00:18:05,724 --> 00:18:07,444
and we have different materials.

240
00:18:07,524 --> 00:18:12,744
And also right now that is also working with me, it's amazing to have this musician

241
00:18:12,744 --> 00:18:19,504
like in the line. and also it's going to be Combo Te Seta that it's also amazing

242
00:18:19,504 --> 00:18:22,504
and super Latin and I know that you're going to like it a lot.

243
00:18:23,618 --> 00:18:26,498
Yes, and then Como Te Seta, that's local to us. It's Oakland.

244
00:18:27,158 --> 00:18:30,678
Yes. So very exciting to have a Bay Area talent there.

245
00:18:30,918 --> 00:18:34,798
So can you tell our audience when you're going to be there again so people can

246
00:18:34,798 --> 00:18:37,858
know that they have to be there? I'm so sorry, but I have to be there.
