Ritmo Del Barrio Presents Chicha Por Favor
Chicha Por Favor returns with a slightly twisted compass. Known for its deep love of Peruvian chicha and vintage tropical sounds, this edition opens the dancefloor to a rawer, more dangerous current of Latin music, where cumbia heat collides with punk urgency.
Headlining the night are Chico Majara, a London-based Latin-punk beast. Their sound fuses the sensual swing of salsa and boogaloo with the feral energy of early punk, Caribbean sweat, sharp edges, and theatrical intensity.Live, Chico Majara are explosive: wild, sassy, physical, and impossible to ignore.
Supporting the live chaos, the DJs keep the journey rooted and roaming across the Latin Americas:
Tomoko (Tropical Yard) spins an electrifying mix of jazz, swing, R&B, soul, funk, gospel, and Afro-Latin & Caribbean sounds, all on 45s and 78s, delivering a whirlwind vintage dance experience.
Paskal Rough & Tough (Cool Breeze) digs deep into the 60s-70s sounds of Jamaica, the Caribbean, and Latin America. From Peruvian Andes to Colombian coasts, Panamanian calypso to French Antilles rhythms, Jamaican basslines to Mexican accordion hypnosis: a true tropical voyage.
Representing the heart of the night, Ritmo del Barrio brings its signature selection rooted in vintage Latin American music, with a special focus on Peruvian cumbia (chicha), connecting past, present, and future on the dancefloor.
