Umalali - Mérua (Juan G & Dj Alarm Edit)

The first of several edits we have in store for you. This one takes you to the coast of Belize where the Garifuna people - descendants of shipwrecked African slaves who spread as far south as my homeland of Nicaragua - have been mixing up their ancestral african rhythms with latin and caribbean influences for centuries. The track - off the 2008 release by the Garifuna's Women's Project - is a monster in and of itself, and was the last to be recorded for the album. Now, with some rearrangement and increased low-end, it's ready to rock a party. Enjoy and share!
