Song of the Day: Atumpan “The Thing (Todd Edwards Remix)”

DJ Meistro  10:00 am on September 23, 2013September 23, 2013

The worlds of Ghanaian hip-life and house/garage collide in Todd Edwards’ remix of Atumpan’s “The Thing.” Globalization in music at its best and something that should happen more, in my opinion.
