The holidays are almost at an end, bah....but we're back!
Feel like hearing tunes from the freshest South American style and get into a summer mood?
Now's the time, Rebel Up! Soundclash finally presents a Nueva Cumbia special!
and a special guest too; DJ Pinchado from Buenos Aires!
His tropicalist cut ups of crunchy cumbia's and slow rebajadas will make the dancefloor shake and swoon into a tropical sizzle! Hear snippets below...

This special night will be in aid of a Colombian foundation, named Juconi (www.juconi.nl). Since Colombia is the cradle of the cumbia, why not give it a proper context? So it gets.
We would like to support the Micro Empresas project, where poor single working mothers receive support in setting up their own little business through practical education. This way they can start working from home instead of leaving their children behind every day for a far away and mostly underpaid job. This will prevent their children from ending up on the street and gives them and their family a chance for a better future.
some classic little warm ups...
70's style Cumbia, way back...
Los Mirlos - Cumbia de los Pajaritos
