I have for a long time now, been wanting to work with DJ Negro Dub. About a year ago he contacted me on Soundcloud where he called me out as a Cumbia writer. According to him, and to me now, I wasn’t covering DJ Taz along with himself and his involvement with Digital Cumbia. And he suggested rather assertively that I should do so.
In complete agreement after I looked into what was going on down there in Buenos Aires with ZZK and all the other bigger names. I discovered through conversation with many, that there was a serious underground scene happening with DJ Taz and DJ Negro Dub courtesy of their apparently massive Colombia Fest parties.
Digital Cumbia may have its origin debated lively by the various people involved with its birth and the current scene of it today (people like myself belong in the latter category), and that debate I will save for another day, though that day is nearing and the debate is necessary. However I wish to focus on the good news. The good news being that DJ Negro Dub has joined us at The Global Bass Experience!
Next Tuesday, August 27th, the official EP from DJ Negro Dub will be released here and by us on The Global Bass Experience! Today however we have a dope single from the forthcoming EP. “Tora Tora” is a classic and DJ Negro Dub brings his own unique flavor to it. He is very well known in Argentina and throughout South America. He is among the “go to” people of the Cumbia scene down there. It is long over-due that he makes an appearance here in the United States and across the pond in Europe. This day is rapidly approaching, this I can promise. For now though dig into this amazing single “Tora Tora” from DJ Negro Dub and The Global Bass Experience!
