Rhythms Del Mundo

2006-11-20

album consisting of a variety of hot Afro-Cuban sounds contains a number of today’s biggest artists, such as U2, Coldplay, Jack Johnson, and more, as well as collaborations from members of the Buena Vista Social Club. This album was arranged by Demitrio Muniz, Miguel Patterson, and Kenito, putting together a “melting pot of rare sounds, taking mainstream artists and remixing their music to the sound of Cuba. The project was sparked by the devastating Tsunami of Christmas 2005, and continued to evolve when more environmental disasters occurred, which is why the album aids the Artists Project Earth, which supports awareness fro Climate Change and Natural Disaster Relief.
