Hot off the press, the latest tune by One Drum reinterprets Zamina Mina, the 1986 Cameroonian hit by the group Golden Sounds (aka Zangalewa). True, Shakira might have used Zangalewa's song as a foundation for her Waka Waka (This Time For Africa) World Cup hit, but we know where to give credit when credit is due: Jean Paul Ze Bella and his companions in the group Golden Sounds/Zangalewa brought this song to the world. Part of the standard One Drum repertoire since the late 90's, we started recording this alternate version in late 2009. You will not be able to resist this deep groove.
