Formed in Amadora, Lisbon, Portugal, in 2006, Buraka Som Sistema brings us a new kind of “kuduro” (Angolan dance). It mixes

are given a new lease and some dance-floor grease. Produced by DJ Riot, Lil’John (Cooltrain Crew/Enchufada) and Conductor
(Conjunto Ngonguenha), with Kalaf as MC. Its all about trying to convey to a wider audience, novel approaches to musical

music as well as other neighbouring influences. Hardcore Kuduro dance floor session, no twitching! It is the fast-paced kuduro
that sends the adrenaline soaring amongst the countrys youth. There is nothing that exemplifies newfound peace in Angola
better than kuduro, this unique mixture of kizomba and techno now spreading into Europe via Portugal. Ace. « hide |
