The combo of wizards’singers and percussionists calling the pagan spirits of digital rumba. the public all around the world to joins their digital rumba. A powerful base of Caribbean electro beats, traditional afro Colombian and west african rhythms.
Ghetto Kumbé is the meeting in Bogotá of 3 great Colombian musicians from the Colombian Caribbean coast. Using musical motifs from Africa and Colombia’s Caribbean coast such as the Gaita, call-and-response vocals, and an array of hand drums and rhythms, coupled with the elegant electronic production of Tech/House, Ghetto Kumbé creates an afro-futuristic soundscape with lyrics to motivate, elevate, and inspire.
The other strength of Ghetto Kumbé is the live! With a very strong visual concept, fluorescent ethno-futuristic masks and a super power trio, the group had immediate success on the international scene.
