Around the NPR Music office, we\u2019ve all seen an old photograph of\u00a0Alt.Latino<\/a>\u00a0co-host Felix Contreras as a toddler, holding a tiny guitar and smiling. For as long as Felix can remember, when he heard music he wanted to be able to emulate those sounds; to\u00a0be<\/em>\u00a0a musician. Somewhere in my mother\u2019s garage, there\u2019s a picture of me at the same age, dressed as a tiny dancer. For as long as\u00a0I\u00a0<\/em>can remember, I\u2019ve listened to music with my body rather than with my ears. Before I can tell you what I love about a song, my body has already molded its movements to every beat and break.<\/p>\n When I first heard Chilean indie-pop band\u00a0Astro<\/a>, my body reacted as if struck by lightning; before I could tell you what the lyrics where saying, my hips where rolling in my seat. Astro\u2019s self-titled debut is one of my favorite records of the last few years \u2014 infectiously cheery, lighthearted and danceable. The electro-pop choirboy sound will no doubt earn the band comparisons to\u00a0MGMT<\/a>: Those similarities are cited frequently in the Latin-music blogosphere, and they\u2019re accurate, but there are also undertones of\u00a0Prince<\/a>\u00a0and the New Power Generation.<\/p>\n Website<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Enjoy this little ditty.
