Tambu, Curacao

Tambu (also tambú) is a drum, music genre and dance form, found on Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao, and is a major part of the Dutch Antillean music. On Bonaire, it is also known as bari. Curaçaoan tambu is a major part of that island's culture, and is there a genre that is considered muziek di zumbi (literally, spirit music, referring to music of African origin), and is accompanied by instruments like the wiri, agan and triangle.
I recorded this performance at the historic museum of Curacao.

This group is from Curacao? Their second song is "Yo soy Ogun Balanyo," a familiar palo song of the Dominican Republic.
