Real World

Toto La Momposina is the original Queen of Cumbia, whose professional career will soon reach a landmark 60 years. Her life has been dedicated to representing the music of Colombia's Caribbean coastline, where African, Indigenous Indian and Spanish cultures mingle to create a unique musical tradition. Her music, driven by voices, percussion, and flute, is routinely sampled by the world of dance and hip-hop (eg Michel Kleis, Timbaland, Manu Chao), influencing the way young people think about Colombian music. 'Tambolero' is a re-creation and re-imagining of Toto's classic 1993 album 'La Candela Viva'. The original 1991 / 92 master tapes have been restored and remixed, instrumentation added, and backing vocals from Toto's young granddaughters. There two tracks from the original sessions that are new to this album. 'Tambolero' celebrates this Colombian superstar with a beautifully packaged 24 page CD book with extended sleevenotes and rare photos.
