For what it’s worth, I’ve heard terrible music in Ecuador, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua. And they play it everywhere. On the buses, in the restaurants, during public performances, etc. It literally is where old groups like Ace of Base go to die. They seem to love it here.

If you know any other good Latin American music that I should hear besides Soda Stereo, give me the details!

And we DO appreciate good music.</p> Hey, where in Latin America did this happen, exactly? Because I think you’ve been running into all the wrong people.
