Steve Veling Love this compilation. I feel like VampiSoul hasn't had much luck with CDs, but I'd love this as a double CD set. I can't justify the cost of vinyl anymore but I love physical media.

Ryan Sarno Diverse comp of Afro-Colombian music from the Pacific coast. We get roots curralao and chirimia music, guitar driven cumbias and even salsa from Peregoyo. Looking forward to blowing up a dancefloor with La Contundencia's "Kilele." The Buscaja track is extra heavy. Recommended. Favorite track: Kilele – La Contundencia.

Faisal Jewell La Tunda is the Best Song on the Compilation. When I listen to it, I imagine that I'm exploring the rainforests of Colombia. Favorite track: La Tunda – Los Trovadores del Pacífico.

about

La música del Pacífico colombiano es uno de los grandes tesoros del país y su pasado africano, pero no mucha gente es capaz de recordar las canciones grabadas en antologías, que son uno de los capítulos más olvidados de la historia musical de Colombia. Comprende estilos como el currulao y la chirimía, entre otros muchos conocidos o aún por descubrir por la mayoría de aficionados a la música latina.

Percusiones contundentes se combinan con cantos hipnóticos y los sonidos de la marimba, el clarinete y bombardino en esta selección de música afrocolombiana del litoral Pacífico.

Este recopilatorio incluye grabaciones a cargo de artistas como: Gertrudis Bonilla, Peregoyo y su Combo Vacaná, Markitos Micolta, La Sonora del Pacífico de Cachito Vidal, Julián y su Combo, Buscajá… en una exquisita selección de canciones que cubre desde los primeros 70 hasta casi la actualidad.

Recopilado por los expertos en música colombiana Lucas Silva y Philippe Noel.

------------------------------------------------

The music of the Colombian Pacific is one of the greatest treasures of Colombia and its African past, but not many people remember the songs recorded on anthologies, which are largely a forgotten chapter of Colombia´s musical history. It comprises genres such as currulao and chirimía and many others that are yet to be discovered by most Latin music lovers.

Heavy drumming combines with hypnotic vocals and the sounds of the marimba, clarinet and euphonium in this selection of Afro-Colombian music from the Pacific Coast.

This compilation includes recordings by artists like: Gertrudis Bonilla, Peregoyo y su Combo Vacaná, Markitos Micolta, La Sonora del Pacífico de Cachito Vidal, Julián y su Combo, Buscajá… in an outstanding selection of songs that covers the early 70s through the 00s and are reissued here for the first time.

Compiled by Colombian music experts Lucas Silva and Philippe Noel.
