Primavera (São Paulo Mix), 2010

Matias Aguayo. Eugenia Caloso, Pablo Castoldi and Gary Pimiento are the people behind the Bumbumbox project in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina and also in other countries -, taking their boomboxes to public spaces where. along with friends and passers-by, parties are celebrated spontaneously. The music played in the parties comes from an mp3 player connected to a sound system. The project features DJ sets created by collaborators from all over the world, who develop short sets at home and send them to the Bumbumbox members via Internet.

Each boombox. the adventure of occupying public spaces. and also the possibility of making friends through dancing and enjoying music. are the ingredients of parties that. whether celebrated during daytime or at night, surpass the limits imposed by the entertainment business. Some of the Bumbumbox sets were done by: DJ Maximo Bondino (Norway), Christian S, (Cologne), Matias Aguayo (Paris – Buenos Aires), Vicente Sanfuentes (Chile), DJs Pareja (Buenos Aires), Diego Morales (Chile), Korkut Elbay (Cologne), Mikhail (Paris), Mauricio Rebolledo “Alvin” (Playa del Carmen, Mexico), Roccnes (Hamburg), The project also includes sets created by classic DJs, like Ron Hardy, Daniele Baldelli, Larry Levan, Bobby Q, Steve Hurley, Timmy Regisford, Grandmaster Flash.
