Bomba Estéreo

Bomba Estéreo is a Colombian band founded in Bogotá in 2005 by Simón Mejía. Their music has been described as "electro tropical" or "psychedelic cumbia".

The origins of the group go back to 2001 when Bogotá native Simón Mejía was part of a loose collective of musicians and visual artists under the name A.M. 770. By 2005 A.M. 770 had effectively become Mejía's solo project and he began to focus more on the musical side of his work, changing the name of the group to Bomba Estéreo. The first results of his new project was the seven-track mini-album Vol. 1 (2006). The second album Estalla was released in 2008.The band's third full-length album, Elegancia Tropical, was released in 2012.
