SIN PARAR: WNYC + NJ CUMBIA
by Rupture. January 4th, 2010
Cumbia on NYC’s NPR show ‘Morning Edition’! A few days ago I stopped by to talk Cumbia 101 with WNYC, results can be streamed or downloaded here at the WNYC Culture blog. You’ll notice the radio audio is tucked away inside a post of mine on the Sonido Martines D’Antigua party in Queens… and if you haven’t seen it yet, my 1st post for WNYC Culture is about thongs and world music.

my intention is to post 1 cumbia a day here in 2010. I’m off to a slow start. Blame CPT.

to buy it, i recommend 5th ave in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. subway: R to 45th. From bottom of park up to 50th st, there are probably 6-10 shops. CDs cost $10-12 & you’ll see posters for any cumbia parties happening around that time…
