Go to Cuba.
The music is indescribably beautiful and real . Ibrahim Ferrer...wow. (Some of you might know him from "Latin Simone" by the Gorillaz.) Just listen, if you can, to "Compositor Confundido." Awesome. Some of his stuff is a bit slow and Brazilian-y, but the real power shows in his African-influenced polyrhythms and harmonies.
Another great is Eliades Ochoa. Anything of his. His music is more rugged, simple, and sad, but songs like Que Sabroseao bring out the beats.
I want to go to Cuba!!!!!!!
Except that I can't. fzzzzzt.
