Penya Biography
Penya are a percussion driven Afro-Latin electronic band led by producer and multi-instrumentalist Magnus PI.
"Penya is a group that knows percussion and its connection to the heart. The Afro-Latin collective’s latest Penya Investigations release on cassette is true testament to this – as is their forthcoming Acelere EP. Here, they look to expand their vision with originals and remixes, all guaranteed to be dance floor selects....... the vocals blend with tribal percussion, demanding total surrender to the music. It’s a track that breathes new life"
Boiler Room Premiere (Acelere EP)
"Penya’s immaculate percussion section combined with the Cumbia-inspired vocal delivery, creates what just might be a euphoric summer anthem”
Best Before (channel 4)
"Meditative and organic music for the home and dance floor”
Nick Luscombe, BBC Radio 3 Late Junction
"This track feels like it’s being spun by an Afro-Jazz DJ at the end of a three day bender. The genius behind this wondrous piece is multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer Magnus PI"
Tom Robinson's Fresh on the net (BBC 6 Music)
"those Cuban Rumba experiments go dancing with Haitian House”
Test Pressing
"Sonorous, tribal, mystical and damned fine pieces of percussion led alternative dance floor action! Search it Out is the spiritual samba I’ve been waiting for!"
Dom Servini (Wah Wah 45s )
Far out stuff man!
