This is the full dancefloor version,with a longer intro, more percussion solos at the end,& a longer outro. BEMBE GENTE is a Latin-Tropical-House hybrid. The beats are irresistible, the lyrics are sincere & the melodic vocals are raw from the soul. The word "Bembe" originally comes from Santeria (the Afro-Caribbean spiritual tradition), where it was a ceremony to bring forth the spirits, for blessings & guidance. In modern Spanish it means 'Fiesta' or 'Party' or 'Drum Jam'. In Brooklyn,New York it's also a very special club that represents the best of Latin, Afro, & Caribbean music every night! The word "Gente" is Spanish, & it means 'my people'. Nappy G captures all these elements in 1 song, along with the help of his drum-compadres Chauncey Yearwood (congas/bkgrd vocals) & Binho Shining (timbao), plus John "El Tocino" Speck (Trombone/horns). Party People....Soulful People....BEMBE GENTE!

These two killer minimal house tracks from Kingston, Jamaica reference the sound of ’80 Chicago, but evolve into something entirely new. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 12, 2020
