Chúpame El Dedo + Cosmica Bandida

In the organizer's words:

Chupame El Dedo

Chupame El Dedo (suck my finger), is a collaboration between the Colombian bands Meridian Brothers and Romperayo, or to be more precise, between Eblis Alvarez and Pedro Ojeda respectively. It was created for a one off live performance commissioned by the House of World Cultures in Berlin, for the Festival "Evil Music" in October 2013. The idea was to explore the death metal sound whilst adding strong tropical elements. Because of the success the band still exists today. The first album was released in 2016 on Discrepant Records. Distorted voices, metal and even sometimes gabberhouse - like clichés are mixed with a tropical rhythm section made of salsa, cumbia, currulao & reggaeton. Their second album No Te Metas Con Satan was released in spring 2019 on Souk (a sublabel of Discrepant), followed by a European tour during which they played a.o. Tremor (Azores) and Alice (Denmark). In 2023 their single Mi Rehabilitacion/No Seas Malo was released on Bongo Joe Records, and they played Roskilde Festival, Bad Bonn Kilbi and KlikoFest, just to name a few. Expect tropical disoriented madness, stylistic dislocation and curious sounds. Head banging mojitos.

Cosmica Bandida

COSMICA BANDIDA is a Colombian-German duo blending hypnotic rhythms, raw energy, and cosmic textures into the sonic spirit of tropical psychedelia. With analog disco synthesizers, Colombian cumbia grooves, Peruvian chicha echoes and electric beats, their sound is both primal and futuristic. Their live performances are immersive rituals where distorted guitars, looping melodies, and deep percussion intertwine with thumping basslines, engaging both the body and the guts.Genres: Sci-fi disco, tropical psychedelia, experimental cumbia, pop, electronic noise.
