You might say momentum’s on high at the moment, BSS having been banging up venues like New York’s Bowery Ballroom as well as festivals all across Europe in support of the fantastic Sound of Kuduro.  And, after being awarded the fancy new title of Best Portuguese Act at the 2008 MTV Europe Music Awards, Buraka Som Sistema have returned to humidify our dance cabins with a new single: “IC19.”  Named after a heavily-trafficked section of highway in Lisbon, ”IC19″ will also be available as part of the Mad Decent Tour EP, which reminds us to remind you to check out the stacks of fresh Mad Decent feature coverage blaring from a new thefader.com as soon as you possibly can. Single’s out in the UK (argh) on the 20th.
