Candelaria Added to SNWMF 2013:
|
|
We are
pleased to announce that
Candelaria
has been added to the lineup on
Saturday night. Inspired by the
raw, rootsy rhythms of Cumbia,
yet growing restless with only
playing covers, Candelaria began
to experiment with the style.
They applied dub studio
techniques and reggae style bass
lines to traditional cumbia and
other Colombian rhythms,
developing a completely unique
style of dance music with
electronic sensibilities and a
live feel which they call "Cumbia
Dub."
