I have used many platforms for social media over the past 10+ years. Like many, the main reasons I created most of them were things like encouragement from friends, sense of community and the ability to network with like-minded people from your fingertips.
Through my experiences, however, I have always found these initial reasons joined by a consistent, un-sought guest; music sharing.
As I mentioned in one of my previous posts(thank you to the handful of you who actually read these :) ) I have a very "broad" range of musical interest. My library spans from present day to the days when music was first being recorded, from all around the world and beyond! (all in all, I'm somewhat "proud" of my library, considering the amount of time and effort I've put into it)
So, I decided I would start trying to post music somewhat regularly, on here, to share with you all. I hope you do share music with me in return. This was inspired by @sature , who has an amazing playlist of lesser-known psych rock from the 60s/70s. Check out his page :)
For now I've entitled my own list as "Entirely Random", or [ER], for lack of a better name. This name is very subject to change, haha!
The first track I'm choosing to share with you is by a band I really have to admit I don't know that much about. I have two albums by them, and from sporadic research and digging I've down throughout the years, I'm not sure if they have a ton of material out there.
I recently learned that this album, Cholo, was actually a contracted album for a soundtrack for a movie of the same name (Cholo). I cannot confirm this, and have never seen the movie, but thought it was interesting. The whole album is very good, but this is the song I choose to share with you. Give it some time and turn it up and you'll be glad you did :)
artist El Polen
title Valicha
album Cholo
Peru, 1972
I am still fairly new to the Steemit community and am still learning the ropes. I appreciate any advice, critiques or feedbacks any of you might have for me. I am here to connect and am looking for more of you to do so with :) I always try my best to help those who help me, so give me a shout if you want to grow here, together. I treat people here with respect!
I don't care much for spam accounts. Even though I know a spam account would never actually SEE this, kindly go away. Thanks :)
Nice pick, I like the music :) Thanks a lot for mentioning me, I resteemed you. I am very into music from all over the world, looking forward to hear more picks of you. Have a groovy night!

Thanks @sature! You were the first page I saw on here with consistent good music posts. I admit I haven't looked that hard though, but I'm certainly glad I stumbled upon you.
Hopefully I'll post more stuff you like as well. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!

I love that you have a passion and know it. So many people go through life never finding theirs. This is not my kind of jam but it was an interesting listen.

Thanks! I have many passions, which I find rather unfortunate, but music is one that allows you to multitask. So although I have put a lot of time into my music research, it has been fairly easy work.

That's true. I was able to listen to your video while getting my kids ready for bed

Exactly! I try to keep music playing pretty consistently. My housemates don't exactly always agree, haha.
