La Chiva Gantiva & Frente Cumbiero, two of Colombia’s hottest musical exports.
La Chiva Gantiva's bone-shaking carnival punk-funk grooves take cumbia and Afrobeat to giddy new heights. Founded by Colombian expats living in Brussels, the diverse nationalities of the group - Colombian, French, Flemish, and Vietnamese, result in a cultural sound - clash, creating an irrepressible on-stage energy that has seen crowds go wild at the biggest festivals in Europe. Global influences include Red Hot Chill Peppers, Irakere, Fela Kuti and the founding father of funk, James Brown. Touring their explosive new album, Vivo - get ready for a firebomb of Latin grooves.
A Molotov cocktail of rock, rap, soul and ferociously funky Latin rhythms. - The Times (UK)
Frente Cumbiero's modern take on Afro-Caribbean Cumbia and tropical rhythms has taken the world's dance floors by storm. Collaborating with legendary dub producer Mad Professor (Sade, Massive Attack, Sly and Robbie), Frente Cumbiero Meets Mad Professor, was a hit on the New York and London underground club scene. Ondatropica, produced with the UK's Quantic, was considered one of the top Latin albums of 2012. Fusing infectious cumbia rhythms and psychedelic dub system styling's, Frente Cumbiero is at the cutting - edge of new dance music.
A polyrhythmic, rump-rotating blend of brass, keys, percussion, guitar and vocals. - Guardian (UK)
