DJ Juan Data of San Francisco has a great mix called Linyerismo Episode II up for download. It's like futuristic cumbia. His unique style of blending tunes and the dope selections make for a great summertime listen.
Download here and check the playlist and watch as the songs being played are highlighted as the mix moves along here

Check his earlier mixes, filled with cumbia treats as well. And here is the link to Linyerismo part I
