In 2001 Milagros (Mimi) Lopar was born in the Ventanilla, a district of the Constitutional Province of Callao in Peru.

Her Parents, Osvaldo Lopar and Hermelinda Garcia, always encouraged Mimi to make music with domestic objects and an old guitar Osvaldo received as a present while travelling as a teenager in Rio, Brazil. Unfortunately, he never had a chance to play it because he lost his hearing while working in a seafood processing facility next to very loud dried fish grinding machines.

Hermelinda, an avid reggaeton dancer who works as a "vedette" in Lima, gifted Mimi her expansive collection of vinyl. Most of these records were 60's and 70's compilations of children's music from all over the world.

Today, Mimi's room is full of 45's from the Hanna-Barbera record collection, piles of vinyl with "Canciones Infantiles Latinoamericanas", amazonian cumbia tapes, Puerto Rican reggaeton cd's, a personal computer, a pair of headphones, and a mattress.


Review:

"I'm so glad to see (and hear) that little Mimi Lopar finally released her music! She always was a nasty yet adorable myopic thing cycling her way through the favelas at all hours terrorizing and delighting residents with her peculiar, catchy songs. Legend has it if Mimi grants a hug or kiss, she leaves behind a tiny, gooey octagonal hole the recipient's forehead. Aha - an inlet for her music." -- Panasia Alipia Athenaeum
