My wife teaches Bilingual middle schoolers (spanish/english). Around 40% of the kid’s Moms are from Mexico.
To get the kids to clean up the classroom she has a small list of school appropriate “Cleaning songs”. She never announces it or tells them to clean up. She just turns the music on 5 minutes before class ends.
All the kids with Mexican moms, pop up and start frantically cleaning. The other kids, after a bit of confusion, follow.
She says “I might as well take advantage of all the Pavlovian training their mothers have done.”
I’m not that surprised, The playlists with Satan in the title tend to be targeted. For instance when I found this one it was called Satanic Rituals & Chill, and when I went to post it a few weeks ago the title was now blank. I think spotifys reporting system automatically does this, it’s pretty shitty
Not Hispanic or a mom, but I’ve been wanting more Latin-american music in my life. Will have to check it out.
On a side note: does anyone know of any Latin-american metal bands? Like, kind of a fusion of Latin-american stuff and metal?
Edit: thanks y’all for the suggestions! I’ve been sick so I haven’t really been able to check anything out, but I’ll be sure to do so when I feel better.
Hmm, I can’t think of any metal but I’m certain I’ve heard some recently. The closest recommendation I can think of is Hocico, but they’re aggrotech-industrial so it’s not really what you want I think
Sepultura, soulfly, brujeria, ill nino, ershetu(french, but their debut album focuses on mayan mythology so there’s influences from that area), mago de oz (Spanish folk metal, so not quite exactly what you’re looking for, but they’re very good nonetheless)
I just got referred from elsewhere on Lemmy and totally had one to share. It has a swear in the title, is that allowed when posting resumes? For context, I had a really, really, really horrible boss and I made a playlist about it lol.
