Garifuna Remixed 03: Oonga Vol. 2 by Oonga

The Garifuna remix project is a new chapter in the history of Stonetree Records. Having built an incredible catalogue of traditional Garifuna music, and heading towards the 25th anniversary of the label, the timing is right to open the archive to the world. The work that Oonga has done, remixing music from the Umalali project, the Ayó album as well as other songs from the archive, represents a wide body of work touching on many different styles of dance music, all while maintaining a respect for the integrity and soul of the original music.
This EP represents a focus on house and techno, with Garifuna melodies, drum patterns, and sonic paletters incorporated into thumping 4×4 beats.
