Video: ZZK Records Takes New York (ZZK TV, Episode One)

July 30, 2010


There's really nothing like ZZK Records anywhere in the world: the avant Argentinian label releases experimental, digital cumbias and other unique interpretations traditional Latin genres; acts as a family, collective and nightclub in Buenos Aires; and, of course, travels the globe. This month, they kicked off their tour of the Northern Hemisphere by spending two weeks in New York, all documented on ZZK TV, which was funded in an innovative fashion by fans who donated via Kickstarter (keep going!). Awesomely shot, the first episode follows ZZK superstars Tremor, Chancha via Circuito, El Remolon and El G as they play shows, walk around Brooklyn, do interviews, practice playing flute-like instruments and, in the case of Chancha, taunt cats with meows.
