Curated by the renowned Analog Africa label, Perú Selvático - Sonic Expedition into the Peruvian Amazon 1972-1986 takes listeners deep into the vibrant world of Amazonian Cumbia. Powered by fast-paced timbale rhythms, spidery guitar lines, and bright splashes of organ, this genre flourished in the isolated jungle cities of Peru, far removed from the cultural currents of Lima. Featuring eighteen tracks recorded between 1972 and 1986, this collection captures a remarkable musical movement that developed in remote locales like Moyobamba, Tarapoto, and Pucallpa.
Bringing together some of the greatest names in Amazonian Cumbia — including Los Royal's de Pucallpa, Sonido Verde de Moyobamba, and Los Invasores de Progreso — Perú Selvático serves as both an infectious party soundtrack and a psychedelic safari into the sonic mysteries of the Peruvian jungle. The release is accompanied by a full-color 12-page magazine-format booklet, making it a richly rewarding listen for fans of Latin music, world music, and adventurous record collectors alike.
