"Some new exotic flavour is about to conquer the world with the first album from Radio Zumbido. A wild travel through South American pop to jazz, dub to furious percussive madness. After years of touring with rockband Bohemia Suburbana (cult band in Guatemala), Juancarlos Barrios started Radio Zumbido in 1999. Here he mixes drum'n'bass with old records, a touch of dub and jazz, loops and shortwave radio programs. Some nice cocktail to refresh your brain cells with exotic flavours and a bit of political background as ice. Guatemalan radio is replete with merengue, tex-mex, evangelist preachers and sensationalist news. By mixing all these elements he conveys an image of everyday social and political life in Latin America. His radio (broadcast) is 'experimental' and in revolt against the onslaught of American-style commercial FM-stations and features stories on Castro's revolution, saved souls, cheap mariachi disco's and so on."
