Trucha Soul Records hosts a deep listening session for their new compilation LP 'Dioses Tribales,' curated by Rosa Pistola, with special guest Sabotaje Media. The event includes a conversation on the roots and future of Tribal Mexicano, an underground Mexican electronic genre spanning CDMX, Monterrey, and coastal Oaxaca.
Descend into the basement of Hotel Magdalena and you’re suddenly in a lamp-lit listening room where jazz and soul records play through vintage Klipsch speakers and a McIntosh tube amp. The cocktail list splits into A-Sides (classics) and B-Sides (house originals), with sake, crab tostadas, and tuna tartare in coconut leche de tigre keeping pace with the music. The room barely holds 40 people, so reservations tend to decide who gets in.
Kimchi salsa, sesame, shiso — Japanese-Texan bar snack done right
Fennel pollen gin, mascarpone foam, sourdough tincture — the B-Side to order
Smith & Cross rum, black sesame orgeat, lime — a reimagined tropical classic
