"Music here's eclectic; There's Rock Internacional (decent music we all know) and Rock Nacional (Latin-American guitar music).

Then there are the more peculiar genres of Reggaeton (think Beyonce's Crazy Right Now crossed with Jamaican Dance Hall - loved and danced to in all the clubs here) and the truly vile Cumbia (considered 'peasant music' but it's simply wrong!)

80s pop is often to be heard on music radio, which pleases me no end, though I have to say I never need hear Life Is Life by Opus
again..."

Listen to Michelle's choice of local act, Diego Torres
