Rumberos a Montón is a joyful testament to the power of Cuban rumba, expertly arranged and fiercely performed with plenty of corazón. This album might be Nils Fischer’s best to date, combining the high-intensity of timba and ‘salsa dura’ with Timbazo-style originals and the lyricism of some of Cuba’s classic compositions. And talk about a killer a line-up!  Nils Fischer is one of the top percussionists in Europe, touring and recording constantly with an array of projects and he had the honor to play with many of Latin music’s legends. Some time ago Nils felt that time had come for a project of his own as well. Now he could pursue his musical visions all the way. Nils: ‘I followed my inner voice and chose music, arrangers and musicians who are a perfect combination in my opinion.’  The working band Timbazo performed at festivals like North Sea Jazz Festival and many other major venues. The bandmembers hail from from Colombia, Cuba, Holland, US, Germany, Puerto Rico, Venezuela and Curaçao. Nils: ‘I see the group as a collective, everyone has a strong input. This brings the music to life.’ Besides the extra boost by the guest musicians, this recording session shows which development the band has made - Timbazo has found it’s own sound.  Edwin Bonilla (Miami): ¡Hasta los muertos van a revivir para bailar con este CD!  Lucrecia Pérez Sáez (Barcelona): Nils Fischer es un musicazo espectacular.
