Rupture’s show on cumbias rebajadas (pitched down cumbias) went out this week (listen here). It contains a half hour mix of cumbias rebajadas by Buenos Aires’ sonido martines (full mix in mp3 available here). Stay tuned to the show for a telephone interview with sonido martines with information on origins and the scene. Meantime other links to try for Buenos Aires-based cumbia-variations include FatPlanet’s po//st//s and this at Ghetto Bassquake. For the Monterrey connection try this hit by Celso Pina (produced by Toy Hernandez)
Super Grupo Colombia – Parajo Cenzontle 320k 7.7mb [lifted from Sonido Martinez's mix]
——
elsewhere attention should be called to this 2//part interview with the bug and this selection of remixes/reworks/tributes of/to Gyorgy Ligeti [via gusset].
oh and you know Iraq rinsed occupying power Australia in the Asian (football) cup last week. satisfying.

i just got back from mty and i picked up some very nice cumbia rebajada cd comps and recs… i’ll admit, i first heard of it from sonido martines or /rupture’s show, and it was weird, as most of the kids there were unaware of the the sound. can’t wait to dj the recs tomorrow in brooklyn.
