Sounds from Spain made its LAMC debut three years ago to rave reviews from outlets like Billboard, Paste, KCRW, and EFE among many others. This year’s showcase promises to once again highlight Spain’s diverse music scene with a lineup featuring some of the country’s up-and-coming, as well as more established, talent in a variety of genres. 

In addition to the showcase, Sounds from Spain will once again be at the
LAMC conference site at the Stewart Hotel to interact with LAMC conference attendees. Stop by and say “hola!” to them and other Spanish music insiders who will be joining them this year! They will be presenting professionals from Agencia Raw, ArtistOnTheWay, Altafonte, El Volcán Música, La Cúpula Music,
Tierra Candela, and Sony Music Spain.

Kike Posada
The love for music, and the desire to be an informer brought us to the world of entertainment. We have gradually built on a mission that has been goal in life: bringing Latin music to US masses. In 1999 our editor, Kike Posada, was selected “an influential personality in the realm of music for the 21st century” by The Miami Herald. He also received the ASCAP Ampt award for his support to Latin music and the prestigious Orquidea Award as a Colombian talent. He has an extensive professional experience as a journalist, radio programmer, music critic, member of NARAS and LARAS (Grammy). BOOM created the first radio program specialized in Latin alternative music in the United States, (see Billboard magazine 11/14/93.) Posada beginnings as a journalist took place in Bogota, at the Xavier University. There, he became the official voice of the station. Then became a record label executive. Managed the international market for Universal Music (formerly Polygram) Moving to the US in 1992, joined EMI-Capitol Records as South East Coast Promoter. But his dream of publishing a magazine, came true in 1996 (BOOM), and hasn’t stopped publishing ever since.
