kissmeiquitoscumbia Cumbia Selvática from Sonido Martínes!!

Nuestro colega y  buen amigo de Emiliano, Sonido Martínes del blog La Congona ha hecho este mix de Cumbias poco comúnes Peruanas. Es un verdadero placer escucharlo por todos nosotros fans de la Cumbia selvática. Respeto a Sonido Martínes por compartir estos temas con el todo el mundo!! Gracias brother! Aqui parte del post original de la La Congona:

“Para comenzar, este mix con una seleccion ripeos de vinilos de pura cumbia de la amazonia ( peruana ), incluye canciones de la epoca de oro y plata de la cumbia peruana, grupos de ciudades como Pucallpa, Tarapoto, Iquitos.
Tiempos en los que los peruanos del oriente deseaban representarse a si mismos mediante la modernidad de las cuerdas amplificadas, a veces vestimentas tipicas y fantasias de petrodolares…
Hoy en dia el sonido tropical de la region es diferente, otras busquedas, otros standares, mismos negocios, pero eso sera motivo de otro post,
Que lo disfruten!”

Our colleague and a good friend of Emiliano’s Sonido Martínes from the blog La Congona made this mix of hard to find Cumbia from Peru. It is a real treat for all of us Cumbia Selvática fans. Bigup Sonido Martínes for sharing this tracks with all of us!! Thanks hermano! Here is part of the original post from La Congona:

“To begin, this mix is a collection of vinyl rips: pure Amazonian cumbia! “El Sonambulo Orientalista (the Sleepwalking Orientalist)” includes songs from the gold and silver age of Peruvian cumbia, with groups from cities like Pucallpa, Tarapoto, Iquitos. Times with the western Peruvians wanted to present themselves via the modernity of amplified guitar strings, folkloric dress, and petrodollar fantasies…
Nowadays the region’s tropical sound is different: other searches, other standards, the same business… but let’s save that for another post. Enjoy!”

1losmirlos 08a Lamentos mi gente...

Lamento en la Selva es uno de los grandes exitos del grupo Peruano Los Mirlos. Los Mirlos fueron uno de los grupos fundadores del Cumbia Amazonica o Cumbia Selvatica como también se llama, un tipo de Cumbia que se formo en los anos 70, con base en la Cumbia Colombiana y con influencias y sonidos psicadelicos juntado con las escalas pentatonicas de melodias Andinas. Bueno, seguro que vamos a hablar mas de eso en el futuro.

Mucha gente ha interpretado el tema y también en los últimos años remixeado. Aqui presentamos el original de los Mirlos y tres remezclas, una version de Dub, de Dj Taz Sujestad un Dj/productor Argentino hecho en 2004, uno de nosotros (Joelito y Renbenga) hecho en 2008, y el ultimo (2009) y tambien el que a tenido mas exito que salio en Bersa #5, de uno de los pioneros y fundadores de la Nueva Cumbia, Toy Selectah.

Lamento en la Selva is one of the big hits of the Peruvian group Los Mirlos. Los Mirlos were among the founding groups of the Cumbia Amazonica or Cumbia Selvatica (Jungle Cumbia) a type of Cumbia that was formed in the 70’s based on the Colombian Cumbia and psycadelic influences and sounds coupled with the pentatonic scales of Andean melodies. Most certainly we’re going to get back on that subject in the future.

Since the song has been so apreciated many people have interpated it an in recent years also remixed it. Here we present the original by Los Mirlos and three remixes, a Dub version of  Dj Taz Sujestad a DJ / producer from Argentina made in 2004, one by us (Joelito and Renbenga) made in 2008, and the last (2009) and also that most successful wich came out on the Bersa #5, by one of the pioneers and founders of New Cumbia, Toy Selectah.
