Mexico City-based crate diggers Discodelic Records continue to unearth and reissue rare gems from South America. Their latest pick is, we're reliably informed, one of the "holy grails" of Guaguanco music - an astonishingly hard-to-find "45" from Nicaraguan band Warumo, whose members had previously played in some of the country's most popular salsa bands. 'Bravo Guaguanco' dates from 1977 and is simply insatiable - a heavy, up-tempo workout in which salsa style vocals and instrumentation (think twinkling piano riffs, heavy horns and fast-fingered bass) rise above a killer Guaguanco rhythm laden with heady Latin percussion. Original B-side 'Pa'l Que Lo Quiera Gozar' is equally as good, with a more laidback, breezy and psychedelic-tinged sound.
