Q&A with Tego Calderon

Tego Calderon made us wait a long time for his last album, The Underdog/El
Subestimado
. But this time? Fuacata—He's hitting us with El
Abayarde Contra-Ataca
just a year after his last LP dropped—at the same
time he appears in John Singleton's new movie Illegal
Tender
. We caught up to the new, workaholic Tego as he ran around a video
set, chased his kids, and answered our questions—all at once:

PvD Goes Cuban

German producer/DJ/dance music artist Paul Van Dyk, universally known as PvD,
is back with a new album, In Between, out now. Renowned for his
innovative trance sound, the globetrotting PvD, who this year alone remixed

the album's artwork. The result? A PvD you've never seen before-one who sips
Mojitos, smokes Cohibas, and rocks Guayaberas. We have to confess, we're loving

Q&A with Carlos Santana

The next time the government raises the national threat level to Orange,
Carlos Santana is the guy it should recruit to tell everyone that it's gonna be
all right. Soft-spoken and deeply spiritual, he seems more guru than rock
legend.
