Mixed Bag, Outernational

Afro Cuban / Afro Funk / Afrobeat / Broken Beat / High Life / Hip Hop / Latin Jazz / Salsa


A melange of Latin and African sounds, old and new, brewed up in one big pot. Grab a spoon and show some love for Damballah Wedo, whose drapo flag graces this cover image. In Vodu, he is the father of the loa, the divine serpent who created the world by shedding his skin, forming the rivers and mountains. He is synonymous with purity, wisdom, and the endless cycle of renewal. His movements across the sky form the paths of the sun and moon and rainbows, and his blessings bring prosperity, protection, and peace. He's mad cool.
