Between school, music gigs and work, I have found it to be a bit difficult to stay on top of my blogging. And Cumbia in general, which was the music that brought me to this position, really went on the back-burner. But today thankfully Cybernetiko hit me up and shared his Nu Cumbia mixt [...]
It has definitely been a long time since I published one of these Cumbia roundups! I have been bothered by my lack of time to be able to listen to new music as much as I used to. I always was good at keeping track of new releases but this year it definitely has been a struggle for me. [...]

These Nu Cumbia Experience posts have become less frequent but I do promise to get them out more often very soon. I’ve recently started this year off fresh by going back to school full-time. The world of academia had been luring me to it for years and I simply h [...]
After all these years I feel that Oscilador Bass is still one of the most creative artists within the Nu Cumbia community. When we first talked several years ago, he was explaining his set up to me, it involved an iPad running the ReacTable app along with Ableton Live. He slowly gained [...]

I& [...]

You might have thought that I was too busy being so focused on the Halloween and Dia De Los Muertos release this week that I didn’t have enough time to pay attention to the great Cumbia that came out, well you would be wrong if this is your thinking.
Sure it is a passion of mine a [...]
I wish I found this yesterday but it’s never too late. Two big names within the Nu Cumbia scene joined up to release a very special album for Noisey – Mexico.
I’ve known both Papi Perez and G-Flux for several years now. They were two well known names when I first was e [...]

I’ve been very busy teaming up with a couple friends here in Phoenix. We’re starting a legit monthly Tropical music party and this time it’s going to stick, I mean it. I’ve tried in the past and slowly crashed and burned, but we’ve figure [...]
