CONTEMPORARY

ANA GABRIEL Sin Tu Amor (EMILatin) Radio Y Música News THALIA Seducción (EMI Latin) This year the musical surprises will keep on coming. In regional Mexican, the latest trends are "sierreña" music and " tierra caliente." Reggaetón seems to be settling down, and the Latin Urban format is starting to have to compete for REGIONAL MEXICAN ratings with the other Latin formats. Contemporary music is as strong as ever, but the radio format suffered a mild blow when several of its stations flipped to E'REAL No Es Igual (Cutting) Oldies, the hottest format at the moment.

On the label side, we're beginning to see new releases. Conjunto Primavera, who TROPICAL had a very strong 2005, have a new album, Algo De Mí, which will be out in February. The E'REAL No Es Igual (Cutting) first single, "Algo De Mí," written by Osvaldo Villarreal, is a romantic norteño tune. The album has 10 tracks and a DVD with the clips Conjunto Primavera for "Algo De Mí" and "Aún Sigues Siendo ROCK/ALTERNATIVE Mía," the latter a hit single from the band's previous album, Hoy Como Ayer.
