A blog about world and global music from a guy who co-hosts the KUNM Global Music Show, 89.9 FM Albuquerque/Santa Fe, http://www.kunm.org. I post one song a day, with reflections on the music, life, and whatever else comes into my mind.

Yuya's Soup: Edesio and "El Sopón de Yuya"
From one of Cuba's foremost composers of electronic music comes today's random tune. El Sopón de Yuya is by Edesio Alejandro Rodríguez Salva, also simply known as Edesio, who composes electronic music for film and whose 1987 composition Violente is considered the first Latin American rock opera. His music is considered eclectic, fusing Cuban rumba and conga with rap, funk, soul and hip hop. You can find El Sopón de Yuya on his 2003 album Cubatronix, and on the 2004 various artists compilation Putumayo Presents: World Groove.
Listen to songs like this and more on the KUNM Global Music Show every Monday night from 10 pm - 1 am Mountain Standard Time. Live streaming, program information and the two-week digital archive can be found at http://www.kunm.org.
