Just wanted to share a recent discovery with some like-minded folks.  I used to think that South American Funk started and ended with Los Amigos Invisibles, but I’ve been exploring the funk scene in Santiago, Chile and it is officially off the chain. Amazing Boogie and G-funk straight out of the Southern Cone.

Here are some links to the top bands in order of urgency:

More Boogie

A bit more hip-hop in their funk

These are the best groups I’ve found so far. Let me know if you’ve got others.  pass it on.

A few months ago we went across the extremely dangerous San Francisco Bay Bridge to Ex’pression College. They have a weird apostrophe in their name, but they are good people.

We cut some live tracks that night and had a lot of fun. So much fun, in fact, that we can’t wait to share the songs with you. Six live tracks, some covers and some originals, all up in the cloud waiting for you. We’ll stream them one-by-one, or you can download the whole thing for free as some well-zipped mp3s:
