Batida – yumbala

1. pronto pra batida
2. alegria
3. yumbala
4. tirei o chapeu
5. puxa
6. bazuka (quem me rusgou?)
7. tribalismo
8. ka heueh
9. saudade
10. cuka

A distinctly modern and vibrant project with its feet firmly rooted in the past, Batida combine samples from old 1970s Angolan tracks with modern electronic dance music. Music is the starting point but through dance, graphics, photography, radio and video, Batida expands, taking in politics and social commentary but always bringing it back to the party.
