TU FRUTO ME SABE A CUMBIA
Mexico. Texas.
The reason our borders are so policed is because they don’t exist at all.
thank you, Austin!! big shout to Turntable Records, where I picked up some fine sounds. Clearly one of the great American music stores. On the counter they have Screwed & Chopped DVDs, Mariachi flicks, and Harmony Korine’s Gummo for sale.
the first of these 3 songs is a classic from Colombia. The second two are AV8-style cumbia-booty mixes emerging out of the Dallas/Ft. Worth area of Texamexico.
Armando Hernandez y su Cunjunto - La Zenaida (from Cumbia Cumbia)

? - Tocando Palmas RMX (from Lucky Kumbias vol. 1)
Funk E (aka El Buki) - Tussle (from Super Cumbia Bros. vol. 1)

I’m not sure I understand; do they sell screwed and chopped versions of “Gummo”?

wow, that would be strange. but no, the S&C vids are all rap videos & concert footage, placed right next to other movies from vastly different categories, ie gummo, mariachi, and so forth. its so great b/c the store only has about 20 dvds for sale.

I discovered it through a good columbian radio show in Toulouse and heard it then in Ecuador on a market. I brought it back to Paris and play every time I can: la Zenaida rocks all dancefloor !! A very good choice !
