_--_ THIS WILL BE OUT ON A 7" INCHES EARLY 2023 _--_

“Baile en el Infierno” & “Villa Incepciòn” are the new singles from Bogota-based cumbia band Conjunto Media Luna. Directed by accordionist and producer Iván Medellín, Conjunto Media Luna makes a sound shift towards fresher and more street sounds influenced by the Sonideros from Monterrey, and the Chicano movement of the Low Rider Kumbias from California. However, Conjunto Media Luna still sticks to their roots by homaging the original format of the traditional Cumbia Sabanera from the Montes de María region of Colombia and including accordion licks that remind of Andrés Landero’s style.

“Baile en el Infierno” (Dance in Hell) is a collaboration with the talented musician, composer, multi-instrumentalist and tropical vampire María Mallol Moya (Natura Morta, Rhabdomantic Orchestra). This song tells the story of a mysterious nocturnal call that cumbia makes: a call that obligues to be possessed by the back-and-forth movement of Satan’s hips. With a traditional sabanero percussion and a hint of machine drums and synths, the bass has the perfect ground to control the mesmerizing sound of the accordion. All wraps up in a voice game that wings between sensuality and macabreness and that make this song an absolute dance floor punch.

“Villa Incepción” is a cumbia rebajada (slow-pitched cumbia) in the style of the California Lowrider scene with a rhythm that evokes party, wine and cannabis featuring a obscure beat that brings classic 2000 argentinian drum machine percussion from cumbia villera back lo life. It has a very surprising drop that means nothing but down to the floor naughty perreo. The track also has a big dose of heavy infused psychedelics that lead to a trip piloted by the analogue waves of vintage synthesizers.

Both singles will be available on a 7” inches that will see the light early 2023.
