Shushupe, a luminary in the vibrant electronic music scene, is a Peruvian artist whose sound is deeply rooted in the cultural tapestry of South America. Her stage name, evocative of the Amazonian lore, connects with the mystical serpent known as 'shushupe' in the region’s indigenous folklore, an emblem that mirrors her enchanting and entrancing music style. Her craft is a spellbinding amalgam of traditional Latin American rhythms and the contemporary pulse of electronic beats, a sonic fusion that has come to characterize the emergent genre of digital cumbia and electro-folk.

Venturing through Shushupe's discography is akin to embarking on a kaleidoscopic journey through the Amazon, with tracks like "Iquitos" encapsulating the vibrant chaos of the Peruvian city and "Cumbia 420" showcasing her adeptness at blending the nostalgic with the novel. The release of "Cuando Va Cayendo el Sol" and its subsequent remixes, including contributions from Tribilin Sound and Lukrø, demonstrates her collaborative spirit and the electronic community's embracement of her captivating style. Her works, such as “Espíritu Tribal” and the "Taricaya Ep", serve as powerful homages to her native landscapes and traditions, while “IndoCumbia” extends her rhythmic expedition beyond Peru, reflecting the fluid identity and universal appeal of her music. Shushupe continues to be a resonant voice in the electronic music realm, bridging the ancestral past with an innovative future.
