leading contender for "next" is meme genres like "hit em"...5/4 time signature 212 bpm

which is funny because I kinda was surprised Venezuela raptor house never blew up after this cosign from buraka som sistema

apparently it's all being lumped together as "latin club"
article mentions singeli from tanzania...bpms up to 300!...back when it was called bongo flava, I saw these guys live in unguja...there were european promoters there investigating the scene wanting to promote it as "the trance of africa" lol.
