M.A.K.U Soundsystem – Podcast 134

Juan Ospina of M.A.KU. Soundsystem joined me on the radio last night.

M.A.K.U. is an exciting and eclectic band which hails mostly from Colombia. On stage MA.K.U juxtaposes traditional Colombian percussion, drum-set, synthesizers, electric base, guitar and sizzling horns, creating an explosive performance filled with unshakable grooves. Lyrically M.A.K.U talks about the realities of everyday people, encompassing love, hardships, culture, and the immigrant experience, but with a positive, spiritual and sometimes humorous spin.

Check out their new vinyl release M.N.D (Music Never Dies).
