Clarita rules with the 'boo. Really like everything you have been knocking
out...even the cellphone photo looks "atmospheric." Whatever that is supposed
to mean

Hi Paipo thanks so much for acknowledging my work, i'm so glad to hear about you, I was sad you wasn't around any more. mostly because if YOU give up, being the king of TC (everybody loves you and your work) what reason should I have to keep going?... I doubt about what the hell am I doing carving tikis more or less often...I do my best and I feel my work is authentic about it representing me, I try to bring something to the table, but I'm so far from the real thing, I have nothing to do with anything, really, that... well ... I'm very happy you are there again...
About the cumbia is not my thing, I'm more of a rock kind of lady, but I sure like talking about music so I did some investigation for you.
the style of music of this guy 'king coya' is almost not cumbia, the only thing cumbia about it, is the beat. the guy name is gaby kerpel he is a very fancy musician he mixes electronic music with 'tribal' sounds or 'latin music' the most, he made the music for 'la organizacion negra', 'de la guarda' and 'fuerza bruta' that are very outside of the box kind of interactive theater, mostly based on sensations more than words, the actors fly around and pic people of the audience and make them fly too, it's hard to explain.
the real 'cumbia' comes from colombia is a derivation of the 'ballenato' that is similar but more sad. here there are some 'cumbia' but as there is rock or blues, it isn't from here really. the truth is that argentina is not a very 'latin' country because what we know as 'latin' is the tropical music, like the 'rancheras' from mexico, 'cumbia' from colombia, 'son' from cuba etc..
here we have 'tango','milonga', 'chacarera','musica andina', etc is a more sad kind of music..
you can listen to the music for fuerza bruta here

maybe what you like is this guy style more than real 'cumbia' i don't know..
surfintiki thanks so much, it feels weird to be an 'original' but i can't help it, it wouldn't be me if i try to do somehting else, but i don't want to disrespect anybody so i often doubt if i should be posting here or not. as long as theres people like you that support me and appreciate what i do, i'll be around, so it means a lot to me, thank you very much for your support and kindness.
congatiki thank you very much! i'm sorry about your ribs, i hope they don't keep you to long from creating your wonderful art, i love to see your posts.
Benzart I know you are married to a wonderful gal, but you can re marry her and invite me!
just kidding, love you guys, hope you are ok.
little lost tiki led zeppelin? wow what an honor! i feel very very very honored thanks!!

Inspired work. I am now convinced that you have Akuaku living in your garden and influencing your work. I absolutely love the sun glyph and, by the way, that site you linked to is great. I have been there many, many times.
