Baile Funk Cumbia at Flamingo Cantina
This performance is part of the showcase that starts on Tuesday, March 11 at Flamingo Cantina
Baile Funk Cumbia is a groundbreaking fusion of two of the most electrifying genres in the world: Brazilian Baile Funk and Cumbia. Born from the collaboration between two renowned producers—João Brasil , a pioneer in mixing Brazilian Baile Funk and electronic music, and El Dusty , the Grammy-nominated trailblazer of Digital Cumbia from Texas—this project redefines global dance music.
Uniting the raw energy of Rio de Janeiro’s favelas with the hypnotic rhythms of Latin America’s Cumbia, Baile Funk Cumbia delivers infectious beats, explosive grooves, and a sound that transcends borders. It’s a vibrant celebration of culture, movement, and unity—designed to make the world dance.
Let the bassline hit, and join the revolution.
