Buraka Som Sistema: Fabriclive49

Buraka Som Sistema – the Lisboan sound system who lit up the start of the year with their debut, Black Diamond – have a new single out now (not included here), but there is no sign of a second album. Until then, there is this rip-snorting BSS mix of mixes where bits of Buraka rub up against kindred spirits. On the A1 Bassline Attack Mix of BSS's "IC19" it gets very sweet indeed. There will come a time when even the electrifying party fusion of Angolan kuduro rhythms and first world techno will sound a little tired. But not yet.
