Afropop Worldwide

The Portuguese electronic dance group Buraka Som Sistema, who are known for fusing high powered techno and dance beats while still keeping Angolan-born kuduro alive, have dropped a new track. The song "Peaches" comes on the heels of a U.S. tour that started off yesterday. The group released their 2nd LP, Komba late last year. Afropop Editor Saxon Baird wrote about the album for Prefixmag stating, "here the four clearly have their eyes and ears on a number of progressive styles and artists across the global south and have successfully included them into their aggressive electronic approach to club music."
