The beloved, Grammy Award winning singer Cesaria Evora from Cape Verde passed away in 2011 at the age of 70. We celebrate Cesaria's life and art with an encore of our 1995 recording of her magnificent New York City debut at the Bottom Line. Cesaria, known as the "Queen of the morna" is backed by her classy group featuring piano, acoustic bass guitar, cavaquinho and lead acoustic guitar. As a special bonus, two accomplished protégés of Cesaria's - Fantcha and Mayra Andrade - pay their tribute with stories and songs inspired by one of the most influential and successful artists of the modern African era.

Women's History Month: Afropop's Tribute to Cesaria Evora

In West Africa, women are on the cutting edge of musical and cultural progress. This program looks at four singer/composers with roots in tradition and unique ideas about how to keep them current in the fast-changing milieu of today’s African music. Mali’s Fatoumata Diawara keeps her focus on messages, mixing traditional sounds and rock idioms to reach young audiences. Senegal’s Aida Samb is finding new avenues for that country’s trademark mbalax sound, including collaborations with Afrobeats stars like Wizkid. Elida Almeida of Cape Verde has emerged as a freewheeling composer, able to draw on whatever influences she likes, and it’s working for fans of all generations. And Benin’s Angelique Kidjo, never one to sit back on her many successes, has covered Talking Heads’ 1980 album Remain in Light, in its entirety, re-Africanizing a rock classic for a new time. We’ll speak with all four artists, and hear their latest music.

Women's History Month: Four Women of the West

In honour of 'Mother's Day', founder JOSH FB and fresh new resident Fred Salt team up on this wicked piece of dancefloor cabo zouk. After the breakdown the killer synths of Pedro Rocha's Splash will rock any party - complimented by the vocals of a young Isia Da Luz singer her loving for her mother... the title translates to "My Mummy". Also released on the prestigious 'Cabo Verde Airlines' label, maybe as a marketing tool / promo material? This one goes out to all the amazing mothers out there - thank you let's dance!!

Trip To Cabo Verde Throw Back Mix

📖 The Story Continues…
“Attack of the Wallhuggers Vol. 2” takes the madness from the club to the road. This time, DJ MackAttack is not just commanding the dance floor—he’s joining the powerful Jam KarNah crew to storm Boston J’ouvert 2025. 🚀

No more standing still against the walls—this mix is a call to arms for every flag-bearer, winer, and masquerader ready to mash up di place. The sound of drums, horns, and bass launches like rocket thrusters, carrying the truck and the people straight into the Boston skyline.

From Dancehall to Soca, Afrobeats to Kompa, this mix is pure energy—a competitive spirit on the road, a celebration of Caribbean pride, and a soundtrack for everyone who dares to step into the storm.

⚠️ Wallhuggers beware: The road is no place to hide. Boston Carnival 2025, we outside in full force. 🌍🔥

TSORR — Resiliência em Movimento
Uma faixa que nasceu da necessidade de transformar dor em ritmo, silêncio em energia, e luta interior em movimento.
Em 120 BPM e F# minor, TSORR vibra como um ritual moderno — uma fusão de percussões tribais, alma afro-futurista e emoção crua.
É a banda sonora de quem já caiu mas nunca ficou no chão.
Resiliência não é força estática.
Resiliência é movimento.

TSORR (Original Mix)

Est. 2014 - 
New generation of a sound which completely fell off the face of the earth.

S&S Sound Systems started back in 1995-2007, when DJ MackAttack's father was the leader. It was  a very popular sound in the Haitian community in Boston. Due to loss of equipment and lack of support from the old members, his father gave up on the sound, and focused more on being a radio personality.  

Fall of 2010, DJ MackAttack , son of the former leader of the sound, began to learn DJing, after understanding the radio personality skills from his father. He began to fall in love with DJing especially after the Summer '11. DJ IInglish & DJ MackAttack threw a raving house party day before carnival. Three years later in 2014, DJ MackAttack formed up with  childhood friend DJ Iinglish &  close friend from high school DJ Obii to give people a new sound and different perspective of music.
They specialize in blending alot of different genres, making there own music, beats, refixes. Giving everyone at least a taste of a different genre. 

NOW....the humble sound has expanded.
