ORIGINAL: Lenador So Ramon just created that palo, he created Farruca too if I remember correctly. Anyone know the newest palo to be created? Columbianas? I believe Colombianas and Caracoles are more like "songs" than forms as we think of things like Solea siguiriya fandango buleria etc. Colombianas has the compas of tango or rumba, but the "aire" of guajira and other ida y vuelta song forms but it's really just a special song I thought. THat is my opinion , I guess you can decide that based on how many usable letras there are and I don't really know. So with that in mind PDL and Camaron created the "canastera" again it's like a song that combines Rondeña toque with fandango beat and a unique melody....but it never really took off to it's own "palo" per say. It did inspire (IMO) a lot of modern artists to combine elements of different forms...levante guitar keys with other cantes such as solea or buleria, and further to use unique tunings (Caño Roto guys especially) that expand the dimension of ANY palo taking on almost their own unique form in the end. Then you have canciones themselves that simply became so popular they are practically traditional "forms" all their own. Most composer of "cante" (if you can call them that), these days work mainly with buleria and tangos and rumba...works better in commercial terms as well.
