Through a project we're working on with The Find, I started to realize Cumbia is not my cup of tea at all. So I kind of abandoned it as a genre I don't like. But, finding this Quantic project on Beatbox Radio Show, I realized I might need to give it another shot... Because this doesn't sound bad at all! But that's probably because of the heavy hip hop influences..
"The A side features Quantic paying tribute Cumbia-style to some Hip Hop classics and the B side is a Serato tone control. The idea for this musical project started when Quantic recorded Cumbia de Dilla as a special one-off track, to play at DJ parties, particularly those in LA where Hip Hop and Cumbia have a special place in people's hearts. The queue of eager fans crowding round to ask about the track inspired and set this new project on the road. This EP features covers of KRS One, Dr Dre, Missy Elliot, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, and a an original track, Cuarta Con Cuarta."
