Here's another great edition to the Afropop exclusive mix series! This one comes courtesy of DJ Mundi, who put together a fantastic collection of champeta, soundsystem-based music from the Caribbean coast of Colombia, strongly influenced by African styles like makossa and soukous. The cover art for the mix displays picos, hand-crafted and painted soundsystems of champeta.
