Cumbia Meets Breakbeat with Columbia’s Systema Solar
A heads-up on some very cool sounds from ”Systema Solar“.
From World Music Network:
Colombia is fast becoming a musical powerhouse of South America, bubbling under with new talent. One group to watch out for among this creative frenzy is Systema Solar from the Caribbean coast who played WOMEX. A cooperative of musicians equally at home in traditional forms such as cumbia, porro and champeta as they are in techno, house and break beat, Systema Solar are a force of nature. Look out for them at the summer festivals in 2012.
