LUIS ALVARADO: SONIDO CHORRILLOS

This mixtape brings together a selection of Peruvian artists whose productions draw from electronic dance genres still present in nightclubs across the working-class neighborhoods of Lima, particularly in the southern districts of Chorrillos. Hi-NRG, Eurodance, and Trance form a sonic continuum that has shaped the regular repertoire of these venues. This selection traces those influences within Peruvian music production, establishing connections between a musical practice and a dance history rooted in these spaces.

ALL NIGHT FLIGHT w/ JEMIMA

A winding journey through the catalogue of All Night Flight's Stockport record store, spanning from modern classical and free-flowing jazz to a wide soundscape of dark ambient, folk and techno… with All Night Flight, anything goes!

Cumbia Rancheras

Ritmo Santanero is an all-vinyl cumbia DJ Crew based out of Santa Ana, CA consisting of DJ’s Rigo Suave, Gary Ventura, LX Ramirez, and Kevin Hernandez. The revered cumbia connoisseurs locally dubbed “Los Reyes Cumbieros” are each seasoned vinyl collectors in their own right. Their highly-curated selection ranges from porros, gaitas, rebajadas, to rare tracks and beloved classics - all on 45s.

Ritmo Santanero stands out as an artistic contender in the Southern California sonidero scene as the trio expands out of Santa Ana and into Long Beach, and Los Angeles - bringing the best all-vinyl cumbia night to a town near you. Spinning a mix of cumbia genres from of all corners of the world, Ritmo Santanero is reviving the once-dormant sonidero culture of the 90’s, yet deviating from the announcement-heavy tradition by letting the music do the talking.
