Buraka Som Sistema - Black Diamond
Buraka Som Sistema - Rough Diamond EPBuraka Som Sistema - Black Diamond
The long awaited debut album from Portugal's finest export is here. Black Diamond from Buraka Som Sistema finally gets its UK release on fabric records. Since 2001 the Fabric label has carved out a reputation as one of the best compilation series the world over, and it seems only fitting they should begin releasing artist albums with the emphatic bang that is Buraka Som Sistema.
Despite having only one 12" release -Yah! - under their belt in the UK to date, the band's unique sound has already made them favourites with critics and DJs alike. Championed by Diplo, M.I.A, Santogold and Switch, their electro ghettotech take on their favourite South West African music has been corrupting dancefloors all over the world.
Buraka Som Sistema - AKA Lil' John, Riot, Conductor and Kalaf - have created a progressive and totally new sound, fusing the wild beats of Angolan Kuduro music with 21st century electronics.
Lil John and Riot began making music together in their teens, but the core of Buraka Som Sistema formed when the two began working with Angolan producer, Conductor, who brought along an extensive knowledge of Kuduro music to the table. Enter Kalaf, the articulate, stage stalking MC and the core of the equation was complete.
