Buraka Som Sistema “Hangover (BaBaBa)” Video

If you were a fan of Buraka Som Sistema’s “Sound Of Kuduro” (especially if you thought it was the best thing ever), or are a fan in general of the Portuguese DJs’ multi-cultural, multi-awesome dance sound, here’s another one for your favorites songs/videos list.

Buraka Som Sistema ‘Dazed Mix’ Stream

Portugal’s/the world’s Buraka Som Sistema tell Dazed Digital that they’re “finishing” their next album (follow-up to 2008’s Black Diamond) and hope for a September 2011 release.

J-WOW (Buraka Som Sistema) & Toy Selectah “Mo’chaxo”

Since I started dancing at 9am this morning (not literally, but I’ve been dancing in my mind), I thought I’d bring the party into 11am with a new track from J-WOW of Buraka Som Sistema with Mexican DJ, Toy Selectah. “Mo’chaxo” comes from Enchufada’s Hard Ass Sessions Volume III, a compilation that encourages re-interpretations of [...]

Robyn “Dancing on My Own” J-Wow (Buraka Som Sistema) Remix

This is the one to hit the weekend on, internets. J-Wow (who should, unfortunately, really consider a name change) of Buraka Som Sistema takes a dubbed out swing at one of the best tracks of the year, remixing Robyn’s “Dancing on My Own.” The free download comes via Australian label, Modular, and is streaming below [...]

Buraka Som Sistema’s J-Wow “O Dedo” Video, Debut Single

There’s a lot of news from the Mad Decent camp today (still haven’t gotten the download link for the Lazerproof mixtape), who sent over this new J-Wow found footage video edited by The Genie (via that disturbing, alternate “Woo Boost” video) for his debut release, “O Dedo.” No, not that J-Wow (never that J-Wow) – [...]

Buraka Som Sistema “Buffalo Stance” Video For Dr. Martens

Buraka Som Sistema’s cover of Neneh Cherry’s “Buffalo Stance” isn’t as much a ‘cover’ as it is a total Buraka kuduro reinvention. You might notice more than one pair of Doc Martens in this video (via the Fader premiere), and that’s because the track is part of the company’s 50th Anniversary celebration (others by Duke [...]

Buraka Som Sistema “Restless” Hits iTunes Tomorrow, Hits Your Face In

Buraka Som Sistema’s new single keeps with the band’s Kuduro influenced style, but has a slightly more accessible cross-overy house sound (due mostly in part to its Moby-ish, English language hook, “Tell me if it’s real or should I let you go”). “Restless” will be available tomorrow on iTunes, and so far doesn’t have a [...]

Justice and Basement Jaxx Headline HARD Halloween Party in LA

My Poproks is ever-so-subtly switching gears to the West Coast, and with that comes some random info on LA shows (formally known as random info on NYC shows).
I got my trusty iLike email alerting me to Buraka Som Sistema’s upcoming events near me, including HARD’s Haunted Mansion Halloween Party on October 31 (which falls on [...]

Hey, remember when I said it was free?
Also, if you love fun (and [...]
