This 2007 performance by Maria Daniela y Su Sonido Lasser @daniazpi—along with Torino (ex-Kinder) @djsanti101 & @frank_leopold — signified a watershed moment that signified the mutation of the “Latin Alternative” scene from live shows into DJ-centric events such as Turn Off the Radio! Automatico, Mucho Wednesdays, Nacotheque and many such happenings. These events also attracted a more eclectic artsy audience. As an example, LA artist Shizu @Saldamando created her now iconic piece “Maria Daniela y su Sonido Lasser Concert, Azusa, CA” after attending one of Maria Daniela's 2007 Southern California performances.
While the tocadas/gigs and DJ happenings/nights divided the loyalties of the scenesters in the late aughts (2000s), eventually, DJs. Bands, and fans began more seamlessly to co-exists in these events. Which of these happenings was your favorite?
