Bumbumbox Selección Transatlántica

For the last 4 months Chilean electronic artist Matias Aguayo (Cómeme) and North East artist Capracara (DFA/Soul Jazz Records) have embarked on a unique collaboration, SELECCIÓN TRANSATLÁNTICA, utilising online social tools to develop a new electronic music commission together. This new work will be performed live in the centre of our city at Grey's Monument as part of a special Bumbumbox event.

Matias Aguayo is an artist deeply emerged in electronic music culture via the influential Kompakt Records and many more. His Bumbumbox parties have taken place all over Latin America and seek to transform familar public spaces into free, friendly, celebratory spaces. For just a few hours this familiar monument will sway to the sounds of contemporary latino culture!

Supported by Arts Council North East 

TALK: Saturday 18th June, 1pm: Matias and Capracara will talk about their collaboration, the Bumbumbox project and the Cómeme label at the Novak studio (at The Biscuit Tin Studios). To book a space email: all@novakcollective.com

The artists will also perform at the Tyne bar for the NONAME event!
