Sonic Postcard: Cumbia

There were these kids from Bogota playing Cumbia in the plaza today. They played one song called “La Carrudu” that I recorded and then came home and mixed it with a synth wave. I’m not really even sure what you call this. If it had more elements, voices, ppl talking at the plaza, traffic-sounds, it might be like an audio postcard. But I ended up mixing it so it’s like being in a place, being with people, but then just drifting inside yourself where everything sounds underwater.
