IS POST-CUMBIA A THING?

It happens from time to time. When I get bored with music I'm familiar with, I get the hell away from my record collection and nose dive into something I know nothing about. It's usually some sort of international music. Today I went cumbia crazy. Actually started last night. The thing that gets me, as little as I know about it, and in terms of what I've heard (basically other peoples mixes), cumbia's been hot shit a long, long time.

Here's three mixes. Two are downloads, one is streaming. A nice good binge, think of it as a reset button sort of thing.
