Since 2007 the notorious Calypso aficionados Jallimann and Rootsprovisionah a.k.a. RUMBA BOXX present a unique tropical mash-up style digging deep into old vinyl treasures, embracing timeless roots music and vintage visuals. Though RUMBA BOXX will deliver everything from hot ska tunes and cumbia killers to steaming afro numbers, hypnotising conpas and forro jewels, their trademark is the mighty so

und of Calypso and Mento - from the golden age of 1930 to 1970. Usually you can catch RUMBA BOXX spreading true magic with vinyl and chalk every third friday of the month at Goldenes Fass, Basel’s finest hang out. The name RUMBA BOXX refers to an old bass instrument of the Caribbean, typical for the Mento style of Jamaica. The roots of the Rumba box or Marimbula can be traced back to Africa where its predecessors are known as the Kalimba, Likembe or Mbira.
