DANCE to the CUMBIA!!

I’ve had a lot of questions, mainly by girls, how to dance to CUMBIA. Well, first of all, just let your heart guide your hips and get hypnotised by the rhythm. But if that won’t give you any results, check out these great videos. Not only great music, but smooth dancing as well!

SUPER SONIDO: MAD LOVE!

This is one of the best blogs that I’ve stumbled across  got tipped by the awesome WAYNE & WAX via TWITTER in recent history. Loads of cumbia and CHICHA gems from way back when. We are talking true record collector stuff here. You need to go to this blog, bookmark it and take a close listen to all the really great music that’s on it. It’s called SUPER SONIDO!

check out this GEM right here man: CHICKEN Y SUS COMANDOS – CUMBIA SAMPUESANA

In the words of the man himslef: SONIDO FRANKO:

“For the last 10 years or so I have had this chronic addiction/sickness called “record collecting”. This disease rapidly progressed into djing, partying, having a crew, owning a very small record label, and having a fucking fun time. Common symptoms included breaking hearts, getting my heart broken, damaging my liver, hanging out with awesome people, hanging out with losers, hanging out until 5 am, djing to a full house, djing to an empty house, getting on planes, letting my day job go down the toilet, and buying shit piles of Latin records & 45’s to point where I was completely overwhelmed. It got to the point where I had so many records, I didn’t know a thing about the musicians that made all these songs.

Maybe an audio blog is a like a 12 step program for this behavior, maybe it is a way to clarify. Or maybe it seems like the next logical step of this ailment. I don’t know? But what I do know is that I have an extensive collection of Latin American music that I love, a collection which would be my pleasure to share with you, and an outlet to focus on my writing. Yet I have to be totally honest with you though, in the last 2 to 3 years the Latin genre of music has been totally hot stuff. So sometimes I question why I am creating this audio blog. Is it to fill some sort of void? Is it to jump on a bandwagon?  Is it the right time to do this or not? Or am I just being lame? I have no diagnosis for those questions, i’ll just let the words and music speak for themselves…”

Linyerismo Episode II – JUAN DATA

Here’s a crazy mix of Cumbia, Electro, Baile Funk and all things Tropical by our homie JUAN DATA.

It’s not a conventional mix where you have 2/3 tracks playing on top of each other or just 2 tracks butted end to end as in most mixes.  Juan goes a step further and does the following with his mixes:

“Now for all you DJ’s and turntablism connoiseurs wondering how Linyerismo was recorded let me tell you that the equipment used was a Macbook with Torq Connective, a Technics 1200MK2 turntable, a Denon two channel mixer and a Trigger Finger by M-Audio. Even though it might seem at times that it was edited in a loop sequencing software like Garage Band or Ableton Live, all the mixes were recorded in real time, with two channels only. Of course, it was recorded in ten million takes, so every time you hear more than two tracks playing at once (which is almost constantly) it means that I mixed two songs first, recorded it, then played it again and added a third one on top, and so on. That’s why it took me so long. And that’s also why there’s little bits where I come in slightly out of tempo”.

Well, I do know that dj’s like Joris Voorn are employing similar mixing techniques, as he did with his critically acclaimed ”BALANCE’ mix.  It’s one possibility for ‘some’ of where the future is heading insofar as mix-tapes are concerned BUT maybe not for many others………a bit like the VINYL v CD v LAPTOP argument.

Anyway, it’s an action packed mix containing over 50 tracks loaded into 32 minutes and I REALLY ENJOYED IT

You can DOWNLOAD THE MIX HERE but check the tracklist from HERE.
