The team of CINEMA COLOMBIANO and INTERRUPCIÓN present something new: DOOOMBIA FEST - an evening dedicated to the darker side of cumbia. There will be live music and after midnight DJ's take over.From Hamburg we're welcoming EL SATÁNICO CUMBIÓN. The group is inspired by the cumbia rebajada from Monterrey and makes their own type of hypnotic dark cumbia. Visitors will see a different side of Alex Figueira when he returns to Rotterdam under the guise of EL TERROR DEL MAMBO. And there's a first-time collaboration between Guatemalan artist DAGG3R and LOS DOOOMBIAMBEROS. That's not all: more names are yet to be announced!
After the live performances, we continue until 4am with a cumbia club night. Expect some explosive tunes from ALEX FIGUEIRA, who will play records from his vast vinyl collection. DR. CALAVERA will bring some Mexican sounds to the dance floor, while the duo of CUMBIA / PERREO PRINTS close down the night with an explicit set.
*El Satánico Cumbión*
After a memorable midnight session during the festival Cinema Colombiano 2022, our friends from Hamburg return to Rotterdam, but this time with their full line-up! El Satánico Cumbión is an hypnotic stoner cumbia sound system, founded in 2019. Their sound is influenced by the slowed-down cumbia (cumbia rebajada) movement from Monterrey, Mexico, mixed with drones and experimental sounds. The group has gained popularity across Hamburg and beyond for their dynamic live shows, catchy rhythms and vibrant stage presence, turning the night into an inferno-shamanistic experience.
*El Terror del Mambo*
The latest solo incursion of Tropical music maverick, Alex Figueira; delving into the annals of electronic music, with the same adventurous, experimental and irresistibly groovy approach of his many other projects (Fumaça Preta, Conjunto Papa Upa, Lola’s Dice, Alex Figueira solo). Combining the most obscure and improbable samples from his extensive record collection, unusually syncopated drum machine patterns and a vast plethora of synth noises with hedonistic, sinful and occultist lyrics - sometimes whispered, sometimes screamed - Figueira’s new musical incarnation will take you to a dark place, where you will feel equally drawn to and scared by. A place where all your musical preconceptions will be torn apart, after being exposed to the truly unutterable rhythms that will come out of his laptop.
*Dagg3r & los Dooombiamberos*
Hailed by none other than Iván Medellín (Conjunto Media Luna, Romperayo) as the instigators of doombia, Los Dooombiamberos are set to open this inaugural edition of DooombiaFest. For this special occasion, the experimental cumbia trio are teaming up with Dagg3r from Guatemala. The wind was fierce, howling like a banshee it was... Dagg3r started their experimental journey over 10 years ago. First without a moniker, then as Prophetiae Sibyllarum: a project that encapsuled their path through grief, selfreclusion and depression. This project went to sleep, giving space to the raging banshee that is Dagg3r - screaming their heart out while welcoming Death as an eternal companion. It is the shadow that follows.
Dagg3r's necromancer drone noise will blend with the slowed down cumbia rhythms of Los Dooombiamberos, who bring their own traditional and DIY instruments to the stage. This collab proves to be a fiery and ritualistic opener to DooombiaFest.
