Grupo Kien? – Cumbia Nueva
& then there’s tropical kitsch cumbia from the heartland – ZAP! POW! aburdist Colombian pop enjambs comic-thrash breakdowns. The chorus, a self-fulfilling sentence echoed in the first song as well, poses between statement and command: Y bailaremos la cumbia. Y gozaremos la cumbia.

at the Spain show this Saturday a Venezuelan girl with Colombian parents called her mother so that she could hear the cumbia i was playing. “This doesn’t happen in Madrid!!” An honor to have reached someone down those circuits.
500 kids came to the party! Madrid sube. foto nicked from Sr. Atlantico’s flickr.
favorite sonora dinamita song of mine: tu cucu. so incredible. these two are exceptional here tho, and a great photo!
Que lindo tu cucu!
Jajaja, ahà se me ve, en la segunda fila. Cómo flipé es noche, la sesión en Madrid fue total. Conciertazo, si señor.
