After 10 years away, Buraka Som Sistema are back as if nothing ever stopped. The Angolan techno-kuduro they took out of Buraca, a d of Lisbon, and turned into a global language, that doesn't fade. An entire generation grew up on their tracks, their legendary shows, their way of connecting Luanda to London and Lisbon without asking anyone's permission. On the Véga stage, the group will prove that some comebacks aren't nostalgic, they're inevitable.
