For the last Kimchi show at Refuge we invited Kaifo, an Ecuadorian producer that looks into the past to create sounds of the future. For this mix there is unreleased and released material solely from himself and Ecuadorian producers. Artists such as Humazapas, Joaquin Cornejo, Crvzloma and others.

Jatun Mama is a project of Jesús Atzil Bonilla, Kichwa musician and producer, based in Cotacachi, Imbabura, Ecuador. 
The ritual music of the ancestral peoples of Ecuador together with modern sonorities and electronic equipment build the musical proposal of Jatun Mama. 
In their staging they transmit the strength of the rituality and the Kichwa party, where the spectators can be part of a dance full of energy with rhythms and instruments of the Andean region.

The 5th release comes from the hands of ecuadorian mastermind Fauna Extinta aka Nicola Cruz.

The First EP under this alias which Nicola uses to explore biology that once was, and now is left as a memory or a myth. Drawing these ideas of creation, biogeography, evolution and extinction, serve as an inspiration for programming and conceptualising new material of analogue realms, always challenging the mind and spirit. 

Beyond excited to expand the Kimchi catalogue with our long time collaborator and friend. Distributed by One Eye Witness.
