Intro

Rajiv Münch, known as Munchi, is a pivotal figure in the 21st-century electronic underground, credited with formalizing Moombahton and inventing Moombahcore.

Munchi's career is marked by a fierce independence and a refusal to be pigeonholed, evidenced by his diverse 'Promo' series which explored everything from Cumbia to Juke. A. and Azealia Banks, and he remains a cult figure for his technical proficiency in drum programming and his role as a bridge between Latin American rhythmic traditions and European club aesthetics.
