History

The band, originally from Concepción, was formed in 1996 by Karrumba (voice), Mauricio Chazcón Lermanda (guitar), Cristian Flako Lara (bass), Víctor Garrido (drums) and Marcelo Sánchez (percussion). Its name was derived from "cholo", a slang word for a man of African body complexion, and "mandinga" - a countryside nickname of devil. At the beginning they were performing throughout eighth region; later they moved to the capital city Santiago. In 2003 was released their first disc, "Porque Chile es porno", including the hits "El Partío" y "El opio", characterized by simple, entertaining lyrics. In 2007 came their second release, "En toma".
