Salsa Picotera

Paloma Negra Presents: Miércoles de Salsa. A series of mid-week summer takeovers featuring Latinx DJs, spinning the hottest salsa tunes straight from Abya Yala.

In the photo, Dagoberto Hernández proudly holds a copy of the album 'Salsa Picotera Vol. 2,' where he is pictured several decades ago alongside the picó El Coreano, owned by his father, Concepción Hernández.

Salsa Picotera Vol. 1 and 2 are two legendary compilations released in Colombia between 1978 and 1980, demonstrating the deep and significant connection between picó culture and the world of salsa music from the very beginning.

Next up, an hour of songs that, like those featured on these compilations, continue to resonate strongly in the streets of the Colombian Caribbean, regardless of the passing of time.
