La Rebelde’s Nu Cumbia Dopeness
La Rebelde’s Nu Cumbia Dopeness
La Rebelde is a relatively new cumbia band in Neuquén, Argentina. I had first caught wind of them when a member posted their newest track “Walicho” on the NCE Facebook group. Walicho grabbed my attention immediately, but my attention is hard to maintain as I’m constantly bombarded with new music releases as well as constant [...]
What’s New From Alto Peru?
What’s New From Alto Peru?
What’s new with Alto Peru? The Argentine band based in Buenos Aires has released a new cover of a song I must admit not to know, yet I know is a cover due to their description on SoundCloud.
Historia En Un Minuto is an easy listening smooth cumbia from the band, while keeping the cumbia vibes alive and well. I’ve been waiting to [...]

Brujjas Deejay feat Hanna Shinohara &...
Hanna Shinohara and Brujjas Deejay have been hinting and teasing for their album Maestros de Ceremonia for the past couple of months or so. When I first posted the single “Pig Station,” a little while back it started some huge buzz. Immediately people were drawn to Hanna’s voice, lyrics and flow.
I expect great things for [...]

FAUNA Releases Comemelon Video
Fauna’s release earlier this year “Manshines” has already proven to be a massive success. Now Fauna has released an all new video for the track “Comemelon.” This goes to show how a record label can survive in this digital music afterlife, ZZK being that tireless label.

Alto Guiso – Vagancia 2.0
As I was on my constant quest for all that is cumbia nu and old I recently had the pleasure to come across this new EP from Alto Guiso Vagancia 2.0.
From the very first track it pulls the listener in with energy and excitement with Bébeme featuring Alex Coletti & Massiccio Shiki. There are even a few remixes on here of Boogat’s Mo [...]

Meet La Sonora Irreal
Meet La Sonora Irreal
This band hit me up about a week ago expressing a humble attitude and a desire for me to check out their music and give them my opinion. This is a great pleasure for me in my position as a blogger when people ask me to give an honest opinion to help them mature. I feel it unnecessary to seek opinion but flattering none the less.
