039 the song , 039 the Artist
Alejo Durán the Accordeon King sang the original 039 , an old song about a girl getting kiddnapped by a taxi. (I guess it’s always been like that in Colombia).
Ay es que me duele, y es que me duele y es que me duele valgame Dios,
039, 039, 039 se la llevo
Mi negra se fue llorando y a mí esa cosa me duele
Se le llevo un maldito carro aquel 039.
Well the post isn’t about the dangers of living in Colombia or even about that song , 039 is also the name of a tropical electronic project by Mauricio Alvarez from Bogota.
He closed the cool Festival Centro in Bogota…Where Sonido Martines , Pernett and a bunch more played.
