Influenced by Los Mirlos, Chacalón, Los Destellos, Los Wembler's de Iquitos, Dick Dale. Elías Cardenal drives a moto-taxi through the sweltering streets of Iquitos, Peru, and turns the stories he overhears into psychedelic chicha-cumbia. Raised in the riverside district of Belén, his music is steeped in the Amazon's humid energy, played on a beat-up 70s guitar he calls 'La Eléctrica'. These are dance songs for the heartbroken, tales of working-class life from a city you can only get to by river or by air.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
En el lodge ‘El Nido del Guacamayo’,
su blusa blanca no espanta el calor.
Sirve un trago con hielo a un gringo
que pregunta si el río tiene motor.
Ella sonríe, una grieta cansada,
contando en su mente otra vez la propina.

[Chorus]
Ella es la reina de la licuadora
que va a comprarse con su jornal.
Un motorcito que ruge y devora
la pena dulce del aguaje en sal.

[Verse 2]
Cruza el Nanay en el bote de las cinco,
con un olor a perfume y a diésel.
En su bolsillo, el billete arrugado.
“Pa’ que mi vieja no muela con piedras”, dice.
El sol se cae como una fruta podrida
sobre los techos de calamina.

[Chorus]
Ella es la reina de la licuadora
que va a comprarse con su jornal.
Un motorcito que ruge y devora
la pena dulce del aguaje en sal.

[Bridge]
Y en el apagón, cuando el cable falla,
imagina el enchufe, la pequeña batalla.
Un zumbido eléctrico contra el silencio.

[Outro]
Su reino de plástico aún no ilumina,
allá en la vitrina de la avenida.
