Sidestepper ... Is a project started by a Brit
who had worked in Peter Gabriel's studio Richard Blair.
Then he travelled to Colombia to create a unique mashup of styles.

"The Buena Vibra Sound System"
Is a new album with a little twist. New tracks are added to old ones
and mixed continuously to produce a fantastic party thump!

We played...
02. Mas Papaya (Lightning Head Remix )
03. Que Sera (previously unreleased)
04. Me Voy Andando (Remix of "Andando" - previoulsy unreleased)
05. Deja Soft (Richard Blair Remix - previoulsy unreleased)
06. San Juan (previously unreleased)
07. La Bara Ratin (Richard Blair Remix)
08. Me Voy Tripeando (previously unreleased)

"The idea with Buena Vibra Sound System was to make a real party record," Sidestepper founder Richard Blair explains. "What we've tried to do is to erase the lines between being a live band and a sound system and to make real block party music with nothing precious about it."

Buena Vibra Sound System celebrates ten years of the Sidestepper phenomenon. During that time Sidestepper's shows have become legendary - whether as a full-on live band or going out as as the Buena Vibra Sound System.

"You could say Sidestepper is an idea of which I'm the curator," says Richard. "But I don't own the idea: I feel I've been entrusted with it. It's a platform for so much talent - and the new album takes us closer to the essence of the idea than ever before. "
