Romperayo – Cumbia Reggae Funky (Galletas Calientes Rec.)

Romperayo is a musical journey through Colombian tropical folklore of the second half of the 20th century, a mischievous and modern interpretation of the up-tempo rhythms of Descarga , Guaracha , Afrobeat and the psychedelic sounds of 70s Cumbia .
Led by drummer Pedro Ojeda , the “capitán” of the new generation of Colombian percussionists who also plays in Frente Cumbiero, Ondatrópica , Los Pirañas, Chúpame El Dedo and Mucho Indio, Romperayo’s novel approach to tropical rhythms has conquered the international live scene with 3 European tours in 2017, 2018 and 2019. The band has released 4 albums and 3 singles to date, on 5 different labels from the UK, the US, Japan and France.
By cleverly incorporating urban sounds and sampling techniques into Colombian music of the past decades, Romperayo embodies the avant-garde of the country’s modern music scene.
