Copia Doble Systema
Copia Doble Systema started in Copenhagen, Denmark 2009, heavily taken by the digital cumbia that fused electronic music and local beats of South America. By slowing down techno and adding cumbia loops, we I really felt at home. The founding crew was consisting of norwegian dj and musician, Copyflex, danish jungle producer Jens Fokking and the venezuelan classical ballet dancer/musician Pepita..
We quickly started to produce and do shows in larger and smaller constellations, sometimes as a duo of Pepita and Copyflex, and maxing it with an orchestra of 11 people! Now we're doing shows all over the world with different collaborators. Our range of venues goes from squats, block parties and glitzy clubs in Cairo to the Royal Library in Copenhagen. Everybody needs the vikingo cumbia! So far Copia Doble Systema has managed to play countless indoor and outdoor events in Denmark, some of the best ones being the Distortion Festival (Copenhagen), Roskilde Festival Camping Area and R.A.W. shows.We have also been overseas! Magic moments at the Notting Hill Carnival (London), in Hanoi, Caracas, Stavanger, Malmö, Wales and the Faroese Islands.
Our debut EP 'Cumbia Colegiala', came out on Urban World Records spring 2010, the cover of the classic Colegiala became an instant hit in the emerging tropical music scene. 2011 will bring more releases on Urban World Records, the New York City based label Palms Out Sounds, Emayo Cutz and others.
Copia Doble Systema is now getting support from major players like Diplo (Mad Decent, Major Lazer), Gilles Peterson (BBC), El Hijo De La Cumbia (Bersa Discos), Dj Sinden (Grizzly, Domino, KissFM), Toy Selektah (Mad Decent), Villa Diamante (ZZK) and Schlachthofbronx (Man Recordings, Disco B) amongst others.
