Progressive Kuduro: Buraka Som Sistema

Sunday, 22 March 2009

Progressive Kuduro is a fusion of the Angolan Kuduro and the European urban music.
This genre was born in the outskirts of Lisbon (Amadora and Queluz - where the majority of the Angolan community lives), early in the 21st century.

This genre is becoming rather popular not only in Portugal, but across Europe.
The group, to which I will introduce you to, is the original designer of this musical genre; and it is called Buraka Som Sistema.

Buraka Som Sistema won a MTV Europe Music 2008 award, as The Best Portuguese Act. To read more about them, click here.

Now, enjoy Progressive Kuduro: this song is called "Kalemba: Wege Wege"!

I like it!

I can't say I have heard it before (hasn't made it to North America yet), but I like the genre. At least, it's original and it is music with passion!

Oh too bad, I can't listen to it right now. There is probably something wrong with the speakers I can't get it to work. Will have to wait for hubs to check it later. But I like the sound of the title "Kalemba Wege Wege", very unique.

I wish you a fun week dear. Will be back later for the song. :D
