We worked on a new version of Voodoo Love, more club oriented for our sets. It’s also included on a box set we released with all of our albums together for Portugal only. So we had to share this one with you on soundcloud. Hope you like it.

Sad news! The Lisbon office of our “home” and label ENCHUFADA burned down sunday night. Luckily these days 90% of all the work is done on laptops and on-line, so it’s not gonna have any impact on releases and shows. But if you did order anything from the store, please expect some time to re-stock before we can actually send it to you. All our merch and cd archive is gone.

If there is a group that embodies all the transformations that ocurred in Portugal – and in the Western world – it’s them, through music and aesthetics, where everything is untamable, in construction, plural. – Vítor Belanciano

Six years after the release of the prophetic ‘From Buraka To The World’, kuduro kingpins Buraka Som Sistemainvite everyone to revisit the discography that made them into one of the most cherished electronic groups around the world. From that first EP that lit up the fuse to the global-ghetto-bass-world-weird music revolution back in 2006, to the global consecration of Angolan kuduro via a group of Lisbon beatmakers in ‘Black Diamond’ and the evolution of this groundbreaking sound in ‘Komba’, the band who made us sweat on dark dancefloors and well-lit arenas will also be showing us fresh remixes and rare tunes, thus creating the definitiveBuraka encyclopedia.

This special collector’s edition will be released on December 3rd and will include the debut EP ‘From Buraka To The World‘ (2006), the ‘Black Diamond‘ (2008) and ‘Komba‘ (2011) albums, and also the the new ‘R3W1ND – Mambos Raros’, a collection of rarities, edits and remixes which includes previously unreleased tunes, new versions of the classic Buraka tracks and brand new remixes by producers such as Julio Bashmore,MastikSoul, Caspa or Hot Chip, effectively turning this deluxe box set into a must-have collector’s item.

‘Who Wants Tuki?’ is a comprehensive documentary which tells the fascinating story behind Tuki, one of the most exciting and yet unknown electronic music phenomena in recent years, born and bred in the slums ofCaracas, Venezuela, told by the very people who started it all and the ones who are pushing it forward everyday. DJ Baba, DJ Yirvin, Pacheko, Pocz, Buraka Som Sistema or DJ Deville are just some of the producers, DJs and dancers who are featured in the film, bringing to light this amazing scene that has been growing steadily since the beginning of the 2000s.

After the arrival of this cinematic masterclass on Tuki in September 2012, the style’s best and brightest students will put theory into practice in the form of a brand new Enchufada release by Pocz & Pacheko, featuring collaborations from Buraka Som Sistema and DJ Yirvin which is scheduled to drop next November. Anyone and everyone who was ever bitten by the tropical bass bug cannot afford to miss this.
