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!
mmm, and the silly dress-up like in that last one? mmm… dont.
This tune is so utterly catchy, it has been stuck in my head for almost 2 weeks now… the only way to exorcise that shit is just CUMBIAFIYING it! Check out my dub of last year (well, actually the year BEFORE that even..) biggest club dub banger…
Great stuff this man, wicked BMORE versions of CUMBIA tracks and remixes. This comes courtesy of SOY CUMBIA/SONORA JOSEPH ALBERT, Check this out, this is an entire free download thingie with banging tracks you will want to use in dj sets! Just a lil taste to get ya hooked:
Nothing to see here, keep walking fella! Well, yeah, it’s kinda dark on the vid… but it was a lot of fun! big up to the SCHLACHTHOFBRONX guys, everybody at the club, CONGOROCK and my boy TIM TURBO! We had a blast!
This will be killer baby! Drop by next weekend in AMSTERDAM, city of sin, to see crazy german BASSHEADS SCHLACHTHOFBRONX and SONIDO DEL PRINCIPE rocking the stoners with some hefty beats and superb CUMBIA! A day later SDP & SHB will be joined by CONGOROCK in MUNCHEN!
Bersa Discos #5 just dropped, so I wanted to offer up an mp3 for the Generation Bass site. The entire EP was done by Toy Selectah, a producer out of Monterrey, Mexico who I’m guessing you’re familiar with. This tune is called “Hay Guey” and it’s a reworking of a song by Tzochitl Soundsystem. The rest of the EP includes remixes of tracks by Boys Noize, classic Peruvian chicha band Los Mirlos, Argentinian cumbia producer DJ Negro, and Panamanian dancehall MC Japanese. Toy also has an upcoming release on Mad Decent later in the year…
Yes that’s correct. AOR band TOTO created a very nice song in the 80′s. Too bad i’m one of the few who seem to dig that tune these days! It’s perfect for a CUMBIANISED version because of the great percussion and the ubertight playing of the band! so hey… I present the LAST of SONIDO DEL PRINCIPE’s pop/cumbia remix crossovers…:
