YANAKUNA
(Kybele, Seaside Trip)
He is a lovely guest of many slow-house partys in Berlin, like Something Slow or with Seaside Trip in Klunkerkranich. He describes himself as "a South American aborigine, son of the Inti, the rainbow and the magical sound of the wind through the canes." For La Bomba Easter Edition he will play extra Something Faster ;)
DAGVII
(MirMix - Global Music Club, La Bomba Cumbia Party Berlin)
Half Russian and half German and as boundless as his music, he has traversed the musical landscape since he was a child. His crossover of traditional sounds and modern beats tears down any cultural walls. It is accompaniment, atmosphere, inspiration and comfort all in one – energetic and uplifting to the last drop. At La Bomba he plays digital cumbia mixed with global bass and surprised latin music.
