CD (Item 524846) Nascente (UK), 1950s/1960s/1970s/1980s/1990s/2000s — Condition: New Copy

A Beginner's Guide To Cumbia – and a great 3CD collection of incredible music from 50s & 60s Colombian pioneers of the style, 70s & 80s Latin American classics, and digital dancehall flavored numbers from the present day pointing the way for the cumbia to come! Disc 1 (Cumbia Classics) looks back and traces the genre from the folkloric roots in Colombia to the somewhat later and more sophisticated big band orchestras and more. Disc 2 (Contemporary Cumbia) features modern practitioners of the style, from revivalists to the more progressive. Disc 3 (Future Cumbia) goes to the modern club and underground digital dancehall stylists, with everything from strains of flamenco to dubstep, reggaeton, Latin rap and beyond. A far reaching, varied presentation that's as masterfully put together as any in the Beginner's Guide series to date! Disc 1 includes "Fiesta De Negritos" by Lucho Bermudez, "Cumbia Del Caribe" by Orquesta De Edmundo Arias, "La Gota Fria" by Rodolfo Y Su Tipica, "Mi Machete" by Grupo Niche and more. Disc 2 includes "Mar Y Sol" by Banda Cuxpala, "No Me Deseperes" by Ska Cubano, "Ven A Bailar" by Ruben Ramos, "La Conozco" by Grupo Fantasma", "Ojitos" by Very Be Careful and more. Disc 3 icnludes "Cumbiaton" by Mr Extasis, "Trocitos" by La Yegros, "Raza" by Bomba Estereo, "La Mil Caras" by Fauna and more. 45 tracks in all!  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
