DJ Orion - "Carajo" Cumbia Edits

CarajoAlbumArt
DJ Orion is an Austin, Texas DJ and Austin Bats representative that can be found pushing forth a number of different kinds of sounds, including the very popular cumbia style. Cumbia music comes from the depths of Columbia, and can be heard these days in dj sets on radio shows and in clubs worldwide. Orion's latest project Carajo takes cumbia songs, and transforms them into club thumpers, by using the drums that can be heard in baltimore, electro and other break-laced musics. Check out an embed of the project below, and if you're feeling it, you can find the whole thing on the Orion's bandcamp site.

What people may not have noticed at the time was how elaborate an homage to 80s pass4sure 642-845 hardcore the skit was. Not only did the sketch hilariously caricature and encapsulate the anti-authoritarian pass4sure 642-436, anti-meathead-letterman mentality the bands of that era railed against, but the wedding party's pass4sure E20-001 name "Cadena - Norton" is, presumably, a shout out to Black Flag's Dez Cadena and Husker Du's Greg Norton pass4sure 350-029. The band was named Crisis of Conformity (Earth Crisis, Corrosion of Conformity). They broke up in 1983 (just like Minor Threat). Its members are also a serious tip of the hat to that 80s era scene.
