meridian-brothers
Meridian Brothers
This experimental Colombian band injects a heavy dose of psychedelica into their pure latino sound through moog synthesizers, warbled voices and comical tongue-in-cheek lyrics. You will never have heard such subversive cumbia and salsa for a truly delerious tropical atmosphere as experienced last year at their live shows in Recyclart and Bar du Matin. If  you have not seen them before, do not miss this!
http://meridianbrothers.com

Geko Jones
American dj/producer Geko Jones is part of the Que Bajo collective & label together with his buddy Uproot Andy who throw the best and heaviest latino bass parties in Brooklyn, New York. Check their hot soundcloud where you download all their sounds and remixes for free!

Rebel Up! dj´s
We´ll be playing an array of eclectic & latino warmup tunes, ending esta noche with some pure dance fire!
