Who Cumbia 90s is
Cumbia 90s is a Bolivian station that runs on nostalgia: it focuses on the cumbia of that decade, the tracks that blasted from radios and sound systems throughout the 1990s.
It is a station for reliving memories, made for those who grew up with these songs and for the curious who want to know the sound that defined an era.
What you will hear
The lineup fills up with the great tropical hits of the nineties: romantic cumbias, classic-sounding orchestras and those catchy hooks that marked a whole Bolivian and Latin American generation.
You will hear danceable ballads, sentimental cumbia and the classics that still get people singing every line from memory.
The classic cumbia of the nineties
The 1990s were a golden stretch for cumbia in Bolivia and much of the continent: the genre slipped into commercial radio, into parties and onto the cassette tapes that passed from hand to hand.
A station like this keeps that sentimental archive and keeps it playing, like a time machine made of cumbias.
To place those years within a wider history, read about the story of cumbia and its origins and how it reached the nineties.
