Analog Africa's forthcoming compilation Perú Selvático - Sonic Expedition into the Peruvian Amazon 1972-1986 (Analog Africa No.36) is highlighting a unique style of music : Amazonian Cumbia. Powered by fast-paced timbale rhythms, driven by spidery, treble-damaged guitar lines, and drenched in bright splashes of organ, Amazonian Cumbia began to develop in the great Peruvian jungle, in it's isolated cities, cut off from the fashions of the capital Lima.

With eighteen tracks from some of the greatest names in Amazonian cumbia, Perú Selvatico is both the improbable soundtrack to a beach party on a banks of the Amazon and a psychedelic safari into the sylvan mysteries of the Peruvian jungle.
