V/A – Cumbias Chichadélicas

Description

Psychedelic Peruvian Cumbia and Chicha from the archives of the legendary Infopesa label, 1968- 1982. Alberto Maraví was the man behind the Infopesa label from Peru. A key figure in the creation of the Peruvian Cumbia, he recorded and produced legendary bands like Los Mirlos, Los Orientales de Paramonga, Juaneco Y Su Combo, Los Pakines and many more. Original Records from the Infopesa label are now heavily sought after by collectors and discerning DJs worldwide, who marvel at the exotic mix of jungle sounds, reverb drenched electric guitars and delay effects. This double vinyl is the perfect introduction to this amazing and one- of- a- kind genre. All tracks have been taken from the original master tapes. Gatefold colour sleeve with detailed liner notes by Alberto Maraví (in English /Spanish) with an exclusive introduction by Alex Kapranos (Franz Ferdinand). Rare photos from the Infopesa archive.
