Buraka Som Sistema Mixtape

Portugal’s Buraka Som Sistema debut album Black Diamond came out week and the band have released a 20 minute mixtape full of banging ghettotech tunes, mostly their own. The Kano collaboration sounds really good here and I’m liking Drop the Lime’s dub bass remix of ‘Sound of Kuduro’ It’s an intense skank and move.

DJ Malvado: “Puto Mekie”
Radioclit: “Secousse (Crookers remix)”
Buraka Som Sistema: “Skank & Move” [ft. Kano]
