After smashing their London debut in 2019, legendary international night Balkan vs Cumbia return to the capital with a fiery lineup of DJs and live acts. Chile’s Insultanes will be bringing their explosive blend of Balkan and Latin beats to Hootananny Brixton, while local cumbia legends Malphino and Mexico’s DJ Gypsy Box make their long-awaited return. A genre clash for the ages, this is not one to miss.

Mixing the colourful clamour of carnival with the somber resilience of the suburbs, Insultanes have been making waves up and down their home country for a few years now, launching their debut album “Sonido Volcánico” in 2018.
