Silencio = Muerte: Red Hot + Latin, originally released in 1997 on Jellybean Benitez’ H.O.L.A Recordings, was the tenth album in the Red Hot series created to fund the fight against AIDS in Latin America and the Latino community. The pairing of artists like David Byrne and Café Tacuba reflected a cultural encounter far ahead of its time that continues to provide a music-without-language-barriers soundtrack for the multi-cultural American experience. When ‘Red Hot & Latin’ was originally released, the album was the subject of an MTV special that received widespread critical praise and aired worldwide.
In celebration of the ten year anniversary of Red Hot + Latin, Nacional Records is bringing back the ahead-of-its-time compilation and reissuing it as Red Hot + Latin Redux with brand new bonus tracks from some of today’s most cutting-edge Latin Alternative artists. It also features remastered tracks from the original release. And all the tracks from the original and the reissue will be available for digital download.
