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!
