Nouvelle Ambiance with Hugo Mendez – Colombia to Uganda

For this episode of Novelle Ambiance, Hugo Mendez takes us on a two-hour trip from Colombia to Uganda, dropping in on Jamaica, Haiti, Congo, Cameroon, Dominica and Guadeloupe, and offering some related music coming out of Montréal, New York, London and Paris. Celebrating sounds and styles from across the world, Hugo takes a sideways look at the many crosscurrents that continue to bridge gaps between people and places. Strap in for two hours of bassline soukous from the suburbs of Paris, Dominican cadence recorded in Montréal, Haitian kompa and Congolese rumba, among many other styles.
