    Funkiwala Records presents CUBANGLA - the sixth album by London fusionistas LoKkhi TeRra.
    Following on from their hugely successful collaboration with UK afro-beat ambassador Dele Sosimi on 2018’s “Cubafrobeat”(mixing afrobeat and Cuban Rumba/Timba), this album sees them return to their Bangla-Afro- Latin-Jazz-Roots.
    8 tracks of 21st century London groove – from Sufi Samba to Baul Blues to Bengali folk-Son to Bangla Roots Reggae to London Descargas - recorded in between tours, sessions and collaborations – a true celebration of traditions taking on new forms as they travel and co-exist. In these divided times, their collective musical journey has never been so relevant.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Cubangla via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

about

Dedicated to the late Baul Rob Fakir, this arrangement was performed at Songlines Encounters and Womad 2015 before Robs untimely death 2016. In a very muddy Womad, the band were struck by how Rob seemed to float around the festival in his sandles and white robes, with not a speck of mud on him. When UNESCO put Baul music on it's intangible Cultural Heritage list in 2005, it was Rob Fakir's face we saw on their webpage and his “roughedged and lived-in” voice that we heard, soulfully singing the lyrics of Lalon Shai, the inspirational Baul philosopher poet. RIP Rob Fakir
