MUSIC AND DRUMS FROM COLOMBIA!

Colombo-Hungarian artist *David Dely* releases his first album, *Son Maloso*,
with his Fringe award winning band *Tumba y Quema*. He has traveled a long
way across time and space to get there and the resulting work shows it was
worth the labors. Rootsy Colombian and Africaribbean Tribalglobal music at
its best. And all made in Hungary!

Son of Hungarian percussionist Istvan Dely and Colombian singer/songwriter
Leonor, David was born in Bogota in 1976 and raised in Cartagena and
Barranquilla on the Caribbean Coast, the very heartland of Afrocolombian
folklore and Gabriel Garcma Marquez' magical realism. As a musician he grew
up amidst a host of Africaribbean drums and Native American flutes of his
father's percussion school, and together with his parents and his younger
brother Shangs has been a pillar of their musical group Millero Congo for
over fifteen years, where he was imbued with the spirit of experimentation,
world-embracing fusion, creative freedom, always growing from his local
roots: the tribalglobal approach. Much of the spirit and instruments of
village music, many of the means and sounds of urban music, with a nature
and purpose new and ancient.



After leaving the family nest he moved to Bogota where he formed his own
group, Tumba y Quema, a term that has multiple meanings and describes well
his musical goals. On the one hand it refers to the slash-and-burn technique
in jungle farming; on the other, to burn away old trash to slash a path for
the new. And tumba, of course, is an African word for several kinds of drums
and dances. Soon after he moved to Hungary, his father4s old country, with
wife Claudia, in 2001, he established the present line-up of his group with
young Hungarian musicians eager to explore world music. Three years later he
was joined by his virtuoso drummer brother Shangs coming from a three-year
stint in the USA. Playing all the major festivals and alternative music
venues throughout the country they consolidated their repertory of mainly
David's own compositions set in an unusually wide variety of Colombian and
Africaribbean rhythms in ever-changing crossovers and global sound
references, and expressing an explosive, overwhelming and contagious sense
of vitality and joy that is the hallmark of the Caribbean, this supreme
melting pot of races and cultures. They won a Budapest Fringe Festival award
and an Artisjus contest to produce their first album:



*DAVID DELY & TUMBA Y QUEMA: SON MALOSO*  13 songs ranging from cumbia,
porro, bullerengue, paseo vallenato, to son montuno, gahz, capoeira, conga
and merengue, recorded by David Dely (lead and background vocals, guitar,
bass, Native American flutes, percussion), Claudia Andrade (lead and
background vocals), Shangs Dely (ethnic drums, percussion, Colombian gaita
flute, background vocals), Marton Takacs (didjeridoo, drum programming 
he4s also the sound engineer of the recording and mixing), Balint Kovacs
(solo and effect guitars), Gyvrgy Szappanos (bass), and Norbert Kovacs
(drums). There are also two guest musicians: Istvan Dely (congalegres), and
Murad Abbas (trombone). David's original paintings supply the framework and
inspiration for Mati Jakab's beautiful and stylish artwork. Mastered at Tam
Tam Studio,  produced by David Dely, coproduced by Shangs Dely, executive
produced by Marton Takacs, David Dely and Shangs Dely, published by
Chamaleon Records, this album is most certainly a unique gem of the cultural
globalization of our days and, more specifically, of a new *COLOMBO-HUNGARIAN
CONNECTION*.
