Trópico Infinito, a Hamburg-based band, fuses electronic music with Latin American rhythms including cumbia, son, salsa, and tango.
Their recent release, “Cumbia Viral,” blends the traditional bambuco rhythm—a waltz-like beat from Colombia’s mountains—with contemporary electronic sounds. This combination results in a track that features guitar, percussion, and electronic beats, crafted to create a vibrant and danceable atmosphere.
The song’s lyrics address the themes of isolation during lockdown and the ongoing political challenges in Colombia.
