Me Gusta Cali

Salsa is techno. Salsa is hip hop. Salsa is house.


Seems like good weather for Copenhagen Distortion. Sunshine, parties in the streets and good old techno and house every night.

I won't be able to make it to much of it though. Oh well.

But that doesn't stop me from posting this pre-distortion summertime salsa/cumbia mix by Quantic. Perfect for warming up to five days of sun, alcohol and electronic madness. Enjoy!



Get the mix from Quantic's site


Wait, you ask. What's that strange sound? I think I remember it from a distant childhood.

You got it! It's the sound of people singing. Without autotune. And getting away with it! Marvelous.

A happy Distortion to all! And congratulations to my sister, who's wedding is keeping me away. Yay!

Having known the city of Cali intimately for almost 5 years, I decided to devote a little musical selection to her.

The records selected are warm dedications to Cali and its swing, woman, weather and even its bus stops. Nice to hear legend Alfredito Linares, pianist of the Combo Barbaro being shouted out in the opening track.
