Host DJK drives listeners through the world of African-influenced music – from night clubs in Dakar to festivals in Bahia, from recording studios in Havana to family compounds on the streets of Lagos. We’ll follow the African diaspora to South America, the Caribbean and southern Europe, but never stray far from the beat of the mother continent. From KPSQ-LP, Fayetteville, AR. This week in the Afrosonic Taxi, we seek solace from music. We'll visit artists from several island nations, as well as a few from the African continent, in search of sounds that raise us up and sooth our soul.
