Empresarios
Hailing from the Washington DC area, the Empresarios are adept at mixing diverse cultures and sounds together. This five man collective led by Javier Miranda (Vocals, Congas, Producer) alongside John Bowen (Video DJ, Producer), Paul Chaconas (Guitar, Bass, Keys, Producer, Engineer), Sonny Cheeba (Brazilian/Latin DJ, Producer) and Sammy Arsam Khosh (House DJ, Producer) bring their own personal style to every track. There is no shortage of creativity among these talented musicians and DJs and their influences, from downtempo, dub, Latin, house, trip-hop and reggaeton can all be heard in their definitive, eclectic sound.
"Cumbia (The Gaff Remix)"by EmpresariosOut Worldwide on Friday May 27th, 2022:https://hypeddit.com/1b7xf4“Cumbia” in its original version was included in Empresarios’ 2011 debut album, Sabor Tropical, and it’s already been remixed by Nickodemus in a memorable version that was released digitally even before the album came out. So what’s the need for yet another remix eleven years later, you might wonder?Well, for starters, “Cumbia” is a dope track, one of Empresarios’ best, and DJs keep playing it in their mixes as if it’s brand new. But mainly, The Gaff (a Canada-based DJ and break-beat connoisseur, who also happens to be from D.C.) gives it a whole new unexpected twist. Gaff takes the track in a dubby direction and adds sampled vocals in Spanish, turning it into something completely different and definitely worth a spin.The Gaff has been hosting "Thursday Anything Goes" live streams on Twitch for over a year and built up an impressive following. Always taking a deep dive into his impressive record collection, make sure you tune in for one of The Gaff's live streams soon, they are a music lover's dream session. www.twitch.tv/thegaffliveDJ Feedback:"Deliciously deep and floaty hypno treatment!" - Disc0beta"Midtempo Bomba!
