When cultures collide, magic occurs. Bomba Estereo, a Colombian band that mixes electronic sounds with traditional music, has been described as “electro tropical” and “psychedelic cumbia”. “We are a hybrid culture,” said the band’s founder, Simón Mejía. Anchoring this sound is lead singer, Li Suamet, with her shaman-like singing and spoken-word. The result is something of a quasi-religious experience. Agua. Tierra. Aire. Fuego. Close your eyes and drift down the river dreams.
