Santero now resides in Oakland, CA where he hosts a hugely successful weekly global music showcase called The Jet Set. He splits his time working as a recording artist, producer, deejay and radio host. In 2005 he was named Best New Artist by Batanga magazine for his first album and made Remezcla’s 2008 Top Ten list. Santero's sophomore release El Hijo de Obatala has garnered critical acclaim, having been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered & Latino USA. Santero’s sophomore effort made several critics’ top 10 lists for best album of 2009 in the Village Voice, SF Weekly and other publications. Santero was nominated for a 2009 SF Weekly Music Award and was featured on many prominent music blogs. The third album by Santero, entitled Afrika (2012 Round Whirled Records), is an exploration of the impact African rhythms have had on the music of Latin America. Funky Afro-Beat drums, poly-rhythmic Couper Decaler dance beats & Angolan Kuduro styles blend with Latin percussion & call and response vocals. Santero reaches deep into his Latin roots & African diaspora sensibilities to bring together the best of two musical worlds in this utterly danceable & celebratory release.

Unguilty Pleasures


I had to share another K'Naan video cause it is so refreshing. New hip hop that doesn't suck. Conscious without too much fromage. An unguilty pleasure like the adventures of Shammi or the cuisine of Nicole
Cooking with homegirl Nicole of LoBue Events is always a treat and a learning experience. I call her cuisine forest food. Slow, of the earth, deep, rich, reduced, light, feminine, seasonal, green, brown, fermented, handmade, traditional, wild, woodsy, healing, luscious, simple, sometimes vegaliscious, sometimes off the bone, always nurturing.

The food Diva just calls Nicole's cuisine, wet and sexy.

Nicole has a great class in session right now that I wish I could
attend/ assist. But unfortunately my Saturdays are booked. I encourage local Bay Area readers of Soul Cocina to check out the classes. The Self-Sufficient Kitchen She is doing some very interesting stuff in these classes. Bringing back dying traditions. Her classes fill up quick, so don't sleep. Here's the schedule:
June 6: fermentation
July 11: bread
August 8: canning + preserving

So, sign up today!

Also, don't miss the opportunity to try Nicole's nurishing cuisine at her upcoming event Medicinal Herbs and Wild Foods- A Dinner For Women



Tune:
Wild Silence by Fanfare Ciocărlia

Tune: Wicked Wild by Junior Roy

Tune: Medecine Doctor by Big Youth

Tune: Medecine Man by Sergent Garcia

Here are some musical selections from Nicole:

Tune: Come On In My Kitchen by Cat Power

Tune: The Israelites by Desmond Dekker

Tune: Le Bise aux hippes by Brigitte Bardot with Sacha Distel & Serge Gainsbourg



For an event a little while back, Nicole had me make a myer lemon-juniper berry vinaigrette.
Meyer Lemon Juniper Vinnaigrette
3 1/2 cups olive oil
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 cup meyer lemon juice
2 Tablespoons verjus
1 1/2 Tablespoons honey
3 Tablespoons crushed juniper berries
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
sea salt

Tune: Rhythm Pleasure by Jerry Lewis

Top 5 Soul Cocina guilty pleasures:
1. A bottle of Coca Cola at La Quinta before noon on a Sunday with my Birria de Chivo.
2. Irresponsible dancehall
3. Irresponsible hip hop
4. Church's Chicken... no he didn't
5. Fois Gras Ice Cream Ginger Sandwich Cookie at Humphry Slocombe

When K'Naan hollers "T.I.A.", this is Africa, it can pretty much be applied to the whole world. Cheif Boima showcases the global connection of the African diaspora with a new mix for Ghetto Palms over at The Fader. Descendants United blends coupé-décalé, Dominican gaga, punta, mbalax, marrabenta y mas! A firebomb of a summertime mix. Download it now while it is up and enjoy all summer long. Boima's got a new party starting this summer with the same name as the mix Descendents United.Chief Boima at the Elbo Room, SF for a night of Afrolicious heat.
