Comment:

This is the first in a series of mixes featuring world music and music inspired by world music. "Mbube" is the name of the song that was the original "Lion Sleeps Tonight" -- it means "lion" and was originally recorded in 1939 by Solomon Linda's Evening Birds, in South Africa. This mix starts from there and goes all over.
