Ronny Mauro Cerbino

is a guy like many. He is dressed in a T-shirt, cap and shorts. With a group of Latin Kings turn to pick through the center of Guayaquil where he works. Leads us to his house. He lives in one of the Guasmos, south, near the "death row." Tells us that she does not listen to these stories of the neighborhood, he did not pass anything, you're him, respect him. However, we recommend keeping the car in their garage. The neighborhood are not observed cars parked on the street. Pouring rain, everything around us is flooded.
"We heard a piece called" Battle Cry ", out loud, as it should be"
When you close the door behind us, we get to a small room and then to another. It is a recording studio. Ronny asks us to wait a few minutes because you have to change clothes. Returns with a corduroy trousers, a shirt with a vest and a leather jacket. In the study, despite the air conditioning, heat is very strong. However, any degree of temperature conditions Ronny in selecting their clothing. The study is completely coated with espumaflex, and divided into two parts by a glass. On one side is the microphone, on the other recording equipment, high technology and best brands. Ronny made to walk a few tracks on which he worked, which sent the Yoni. Artists, panas there have been astonished by the laborious and meticulous Ronny has done. Here in America, these things can no longer do, are very expensive. Listen to a piece called "Battle Cry" at full volume, as it should be. War cry is a call for peace on the streets, to make an end to the indifference of society, is a cry for attention from those who believe that young people grown in selected street violence.
Music is the life of Ronnie, what's outside stays outside. He who does not belong to any youth organization of the street, many young acolyte who want to make music. It is their way of participating. It's the best you can offer and has made a name and a life around music. That evening we learned that in the most difficult music Guayaquil twelve people could make very different find something to share.
Young people want to make music. Why it seems so difficult to understand that it is something as important as formal education, because it makes sense for them and because off other practices as violence. Ronny's example should inspire us to think not of personal success (as is often the journalists trying to make life stories that confuse celebrity with moral and reconstruction needs of social ties and generational) or where there are good young men and other bad (as they do many police and teachers), but in the opportunities open to young people through music. Work together so that they can be implemented recording studios and other fine "paraphernalia" in the neighborhood, run by young people as Ronny.
