TUMBO is our production debut, and explores rhythms and genres that we grew up listening and dancing to. With its four percussive tracks, the EP takes elements from reggaeton, colombian guaracha, brazilian funk and venezuelan gaita, and includes samples that represent some of our biggest musical inspirations and aspirations. For us, the making of this EP was about collaborating, having fun and beginning to understand our own sound and process. We’re excited to share it, and to keep exploring.

TUMBO, nuestro primer EP, explora ritmos y géneros musicales con los que crecimos e incorpora elementos de reggaeton, dembow, guaracha, baile funk y gaita zuliana, y samples que representan algunas de nuestras principales inspiraciones y aspiraciones musicales. Hacer este EP fue una oportunidad para colaborar, divertirnos y empezar a entender nuestro propio sonido y proceso creativo. Nos emociona mucho compartirlo y seguir explorando.

We thank CUE Art Projects for their support in the making of this EP.

ANA LUISA & SEB - TRALLA

Simon is an interdisciplinary artist, DJ, and selector from Colombia, currently based between Berlin and Leipzig, Germany. Simón is one of the founders of Calentura Berlin and Áspora in Leipzig, as well as a member of Necios Berlin. The passion for music makes Simón a true ’’digger’’ of sounds, always seeking inspiration in the rhythms of the Global South with a strong focus on their Latin American roots.

This dedication has led Simón to explore hidden databases, forgotten vinyl shops, antique stores, and any corner willing to share its soundscapes, both in Colombia and around the world. Always eager to listen to the last track or sift through every box to find that special vinyl.

Simón JaVa sets span traditional Latin American rhythmic foundations, including genres such as Salsa, Cumbia, African music, and Merengue, to the most avant-garde and contemporary styles like Latin Club, Guaracha, Perreo, Neo Perreo, Dembow, Baile Funk, Raptor House, Latincore, and Afrofuturism, among others. Each set is crafted as a journey through diverse soundscapes and musical latitudes, always highlighting diversity and breaking monotony.

This unique approach has led Simón to develop the concept of ’’Tejidos Sonoros’’ - ’’Sonics Weaves’’, where different sounds and music intertwine to create an immersive and captivating auditory experience.

“El sonido de Caballito refleja el calor, la alegría, las raíces, las ganas de mover el culo, el sudor, la buena onda...”
Caballito da a luz en una cálida Granada en septiembre de 2010, fruto del reencuentro entre Bigote y Grita, dos auténticos exploradores y recicladores de los ritmos latinoamericanos.
Pioneros en nuestro país en esta corriente ElecTropical que poco a poco va invadiendo todo el globo, empiezan sus andadas publicando varias mixtapes en su propia web y en distintos blogs del subterráneo movimiento. Pronto decidirían ilustrar sus mezclas con una explosión de gifs animados, vídeos y colores estridentes y muy chillones (creados por ellos, son también apasionados de la imagen), creando así un entorno psicodélico, divertido y uniforme. Fue entonces cuando Grita y Bigote decidieron lanzarse a la producción estableciendo su propio netlabel, siguiendo la línea de la licencia libre (Creative Commons). De esta forma, todo lo publicado en Caballito, ya sean producciones suyas o de otros artistas, fluye libremente por la red.

“Caballito sound reflects the warmth, the energy, the roots, the need to move the ass, the sweat, the good wave...”
Caballito is born in Granada, in September 2010, when Daniel aka Bigote and David aka Grita meet again. It was a while since these two guys were checking out traditional Latino-American rhythms and discovering the Digital Cumbia, new Tropical style emerging all around the world.
Caballito, pioneer in our Country within this musical current, started publishing mixtapes in his own web and in different blogs, with the intention of breaking our hips. But quickly this world was too small for them, so they started to flood us with videos and psychedelic gifs. Was at that time when Grita y Bigote jumped into production creating their own netlabel, whose phylosophy follow the free licence idea. All the stuff published - their own productions and the collaborators’ ones - all flow freely through the web.
