Systema Solar is a collective of musicians and visual artists hailing from the Caribbean coast of Colombia, widely recognized for their vibrant blend of Afro-Caribbean rhythms and modern electronic sounds. Formed in the late 2000s, the group is often praised for their energetic performances and their unique style, which melds traditional elements such as cumbia, bullerengue, and champeta with hip hop, reggae, techno, and house, creating a genre they often refer to as "berbenautika." This innovative approach to music, along with their socially conscious lyrics and psychedelic visual art, has garnered them a passionate following both in Colombia and internationally.

Systema Solar is known for producing music that not only makes you dance but also carries a message, encouraging listeners to connect with their heritage and consider social and environmental issues. Their discography, including popular tracks like "Mi Kolombia," "El Amarillo 2020," and "Carnavalera," exhibits their role as cultural ambassadors of Colombia's richly diverse coast. With infectious rhythms and an interactive approach to performance, they've lit up stages at major festivals and events, spreading their joyous rebellion and musical innovation around the globe, while their "Track by Track Commentary" offers fans a deeper insight into their creative process. Systema Solar remains a beacon of cultural pride and a conduit for the party spirit inherent to their Afro-Colombian roots.
