In this episode of Musical DNA, we explore the origins of the blues as one of the deepest and most human forms of music. More than a genre, the blues emerged as a way to transform pain, memory, labor, and resilience into sound. We trace its African American roots, its expressive power, the central role of the voice, repetition, and the emotion that made it unmistakable. We also discover why its influence still lives on in rock, jazz, soul, and much of today’s popular music. A story about how feeling became musical language.

ADN Musical is a podcast that explores how the styles that shaped the world were born. Not as a rigid historical timeline, but as a journey into the essence of each genre: what inspires it, what sets it apart, which cultures run through it, and why it sounds the way it does. In each chapter, we step into a different musical universe to discover the origins of jazz, the force of reggae, the pulse of hip hop, the identity of flamenco, the energy of techno, and many other sounds that transformed generations. With a close, narrative, informative, and inspiring tone, ADN Musical is made for both people just beginning to discover music and those who already love it and want to understand it more deeply. Because behind every rhythm there is far more than songs: there are cultural crossings, emotion, identity, and a living story that still resonates.
