Carnival rumpus, DIY electro and out-compas. Kicks off with some 1979 folk revivalism plonking Kraftwerk inna Port au Prince. Haunting vocals, heavy drum machine. Then some rough and rugged rara, with a one-note bass-line from a Vaksin bamboo-flute; and a beautiful mini jazz arrangement of the evergreen mateau, with criss horns. For those still standing, a stiff shot of psycho-compas, laced with swirling organs, screeching vocals and heavy bass. Boom.
