Marcelo Umaña

Marcelo Umaña takes you on a funky trip through the world, with his international rhythms and melodies. In his home country, Umaña was a key figure of the 90's Chilean electronic music movement, playing alongside Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano long before both departed for international stardom. As well as spinning vinyl in the clubs of Santiago De Chile, Umaña published a music magazine, worked in the now legendary Background Records store and had a weekly radio show on the Chilean network, Radio Isla Negra. He has lived in Amsterdam since 2001, where he is a resident DJ at Pllek and runs a successful early evening show at Red Light Radio.
