about

Afrosekuela is a play on words, a double meaning concept, an exploration. In one, it examines the remaining secuelas (traces) of African culture throughout the world (Afro-secuela). The other considers the way that African culture, and specifically music, se cuela (sneaks) across borders (Afro-se cuela). As the African continent was spread all across the Americas through slavery, African culture and influence persisted.

This three song EP presents music from three different areas that have been strongly influenced by this Africa diaspora: the United States, Brazil and my homeland of Cuba. The first song on the EP, “Bateria Perfecta” highlights the African influence on Brazilian music, and on Brazilian rhythm and percussion. The next song, “Ponte de Pie”, was inspired by the underground electronic music of Detroit and its fusion with hip hop, specifically incorporating one of the most well-known choruses in rap, from the Sugar Hill Gang. The last, “Afrosekuela”, is a mix of Angolan kuduro with the rhythm of Afrocuban drums.
