>>> THIS IS THE SECOND WEEK OF HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH SO IT IS TIME TO KICK THE PARTY INTO HIGH GEAR WITH SOME TRULY CELEBRATORY MUSIC.

MUSIC JOURNALIST SAYS ONE OF THE BEST WAYS SHE KNOWS HOW TO GET PEOPLE ON THE DANCE FLOOR IS WITH THE SOUNDS OF CUMBIA.

>> WE ARE CELEBRATING LATINX HERITAGE MONTH AND THERE IS NO BETTER WAY TO CELEBRATE THAN WITH MUSIC.

FOR ME, CUMBIA IS ONE OF THE MOST FESTIVE STYLES OF MUSIC COMING FROM LATIN AMERICA.

CUMBIA HAS ITS ROOTS IN COLUMBIA .

IT IS INFLUENCED BY AFRICAN AND SPANISH DANCE RHYTHMS AND I LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT ONE OF THE BANDS THAT WAS VERY POPULAR IN THE 60s WHICH IS LESS GOLDEN BOYS.

THEY WERE COMBINING TROPICAL AND BROCK WITH POP AND WITH A TWIST WHICH MADE THEM SUPER POPULAR RIGHT AWAY.

THEY ARE VERY CHARISMATIC.

IF YOU WANT TO FIND THEIR MUSIC NOW, MISSISSIPPI RECORDS, BASED IN BROOKLYN, DID EVERY RELEASE OF THEIR ALBUM, CUMBIA DE JUVENTUD.

LET'S PREVIEW ONE OF THE TRACKS FROM THAT ALBUM.

>> ♪ >> CURRENTLY, AN EXAMPLE OF A BAND FROM COLOMBIA DOING COOL THINGS WITH THE MUSIC BUT INCORPORATING TROPICAL SOUNDS INCLUDE COLOMBIAN SOUNDS BUT A LOT OF ELECTRONIC MUSIC.

THEY ARE SUPER POPULAR RIGHT NOW AND THEY JUST RELEASED A NEW SINGLE.

IT FEATURES -- LET'S TAKE A LISTEN TO IT AND SEE HOW IT DIFFERS FROM THEM, THE RETRO SOUND TO THE MODERN SOUND.

>> ♪ >> NOW LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE PSYCHEDELIC SIDE OF CUMBIA.

THERE IS NO BETTER REPRESENTATION FROM PERU .

I MENTIONED THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE PART OF A FESTIVAL IN 2018 ALL THE WAY FROM PERU TO OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY.

IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE THEM PERFORM.

LET'S LISTEN.

>> ♪ >> I WANT TO LEAVE YOU WITH SOMETHING FOR THE CHICAGO-BASED FANS IN THE SAME VEIN OF MUSIC.

THIS IS SOMETHING NEW.
