Chonta Records

It has been a while, but so much has been going on, I've decided to start writing this thing again. The big news is that in NYC we've started a new record label, Chonta Records, dedicated to Colombian and other Latin music. One of the cornerstones of this label is the young scene of Colombian artists, both in Colombia and in the U.S., who are experimenting with new, exciting sounds while at the same time paying homage to the legendary musicians of several generations ago. These bands in New York include La Cumbiamba Eneye, Coba, and Pablo Mayor - Folklore Urbano, whose second album, Baile/Dance!, is our first release. The whole NYC Colombian scene is playing Satalla this weekend--come join us, and there will be lots more to come.
