Words by Eddie STATS Houghton
Havana Cultura: The Search Continues The new 2-disc sequel to Gilles Peterson’s original Havana Cultura compilation of Cuban sounds from –is now ready for insertion in your ear (at least part-way). You can preview both Disc 1 (tracks curated and recorded by Gilles) and Disc 2 (previously recorded tracks by upcoming Cuban artists collected in one place) in the form of this mini-mix (below), poured by the master-blender himself. But you can also hear more tracks over here and download the track “Vida,” featuring Osdalgia Edgaro by simply putting your email address in the slot, for a more digestible taster. We recommend you combine with a double of Havana Club over ice, then shake well. Also streamable on soundcloud. Full tracklisting after the jump.
