Here’s a Nu Cumbia mix I did about 9 months ago in February 2009, just thought it’d be great to give it a fresh airing somewhere.

Sorry I can’t remember the tracklist, save to say that it includes material from Discos Fuentes, ZZK Records, Bersa Discos and Sonido Del Principe.

Improvised & recorded in real time on Pioneer CDJ 1000 MKII & DJM 600 MIXER.

Something delicious here that I liberated from my new friends at the Emayocutz blog.

A cumbia tools package and here’s what they say:

Atention DJ’s and producers!! We thought we’d pass on a package of Cumbia loops… Guacharacas, tambores, bombos… All o’ that! For your remixes, producions or whatever you want to do with them. Cumbia for everyone!!

So you can just slot them into your sets or mash them up with something or create a remix out of them or something completely new, it up to you.

Thanks Mr Galliano

JukE BoyZ are PETER POZOREK & (me) DJ UMB and we put this little Tropical Tek House remix together of the Daniel Haaksman tune, entered it into the competition and man, we came close.  It was voted the best MINIMAL remix and made the shortlist of the final 8 entries.

It’s just a bit of fun and we aimed it at the TECH-HOUSE market, hoping it would be picked up by all the Tech House DJ’s and so far we’ve had a pretty good response.

Anyway, we’re gonna re-work it with a new Kid Conga-less version with a totally tropical taste.

For now, however, you can download the Kid Conga version, which is at 126 BPM and at around 8 minutes in length, perfect to slot into those Tropical Tech House sets.

Watch out for our Vieux Farka Toure remix, which we are led to believe will be coming out on the SIX DEGREES label soon, it’s a voodoo MF!

Here’s something Tropical, in a tech house stylee by The Juke Boyz (Peter Pozorek & DJ Umb).

You can stream it for now and it’ll be available for a free download very, very soon.

Perfect I think for an opening  or mid-opening Tropical Tech House set.

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Hi guys,

Allow me to introduce myself, I’m DJ UMB from the Generation Bass blog.

This is my first post for this great new and innovative blog/creative institution known as CRASHROOTS.

So I thought I’d start by uploading a link to mix I did a few weeks back called “STONED CUMBIA”.

The mix is made up entirely of Nu Cumbia music/mash up’s by my partner at Generation Bass, Sonido Del Principe aka Vince The Prince.

It takes material from his more reflective and atmospheric side and also includes some tunes from his forthcoming FREE album “La Naranja Mecanica”.

I hope you enjoy it and if you do, I’d be happy to upload some more mixes in due course.

Just so that you know, I record all my mixes on Pioneer CDJ 1000 MKII & a Pioneer DJM 600 Mixer.  Sadly, I’m not into software/laptop dj’ing options just yet.

Anyway, enjoy!
