East Village Radio- Cumba Mela w/Zizek
This past Friday we had the pleasure of being hosted by Small Changes radio show “The Big Cover Up” on East Village Radio, with Zizek’s El G and Sandro from Frikstailers. You can stream the entire show by clicking this.
The show is date 9.24.2010, no fast fowarding on this folks. So if you want to hear some of Cumba Mela’s unreleased tracks and Zizeks unreleased tracks your going to have to sit through the whole thing. The show doesn’t really start until about 1omins into it.
I (Atropolis) rocked it for about an hour, and the El G comes on after our short interview. And dam yo, all I can say is Zizek Volume 3. is going to be off the charts! So if you got the patience to sit through the entire stream it is definitely worth it to catch a sneak peak of Zizek Vol. 3
After El G, Sandro from Frikstailers played a nice set as well.
Check out the short video I slapped together from some of the footage captured during the show.

A glistening coat of sweat dripped from everyone on the tightly packed dancefloor as they focused intently on Cumba Mela’s set during the heat stroke-inducing Danger party this Saturday at 3rd Ward. Like the trio does at other Brooklyn underground parties, they played a selection of quick-paced “global bass” tracks, a blending of international folk sounds with Western club music.

Cumba Mela covered in When Giants Meet
When Giants Meet recently sat backstage with the amazing DJ’s from Cumba Mela at Littlefield in Brooklyn to talk about some of the history behind Cumba Mela and what they offer to the people ready to be taken on their musical journey.
