Ruido Tovar: Vinyl LP

Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.
Label: Ansonia Records
Release Date: 22nd May

This is class experimental electronics and psychedelic Mexican cumbia and then there's Beck who turns up to join in the skitchy tropicalia groove disco party. 

Mexican Institute of Sound (MIS) and Meridian Brothers join forces on Ruido Tovar, a
cross-border collaboration that reimagines the tropical traditions linking Mexico and
Colombia. Drawing inspiration from icons like Rigo Tovar and the psychedelic
Mexican cumbia era, the project blends danzón, son, cha-cha-cha, and experimental
electronics into a vibrant new language. MIS’s genre-bending electronic tropicalism
meets Meridian Brothers’ avant-garde eccentricity, resulting in a sound that is both
reverent and playfully distorted. Together, Camilo Lara and Eblis Álvarez pay tribute
to decades of musical exchange while pushing tropical music into unexpected
territory.
