Live Music/Documentary: Movimientos (Friday 15th January/London)
Movimientos kicks off the year in style at Passing Clouds with two of London’s hottest underground live acts both blending their Latin roots with groove-laden psychedelic descarga, but coming up with very different results. Monsalve, led by celebrated bass player Raul Monsalve (Family Atlantica) and featuring some of London’s hottest Jazz and African musicians, they make a highly anticipated debut at the Clouds and Longjon La Flecha returning after smashing it last year and prior to their big show at Cargo at the end of the month.
Plus guest DJ Analog Jones will be making a rare appearance outside the studio to drop some next generation salsa dura from Colombia, Nicaragua and the Puerto Rican barrios of New Jersey
And residents Cal Jader and Sebilio taking you from classic Salsa bombs, Cuban and tropical rhythms to the freshest Rumba Funk, New Cumbia, Brazilian beats - The sound of the global Latin underground!
And early doors a chance to catch Peruvian ethnomusicologist Sofia Buchuck’s film Crossing Borders on the Latin American refugee experience in London, introduced by the director and followed by poetry.
