World Music on Continental Drift

Felipe’s taking you south for the winter to the South American county of Paraguay for this edition of Continental Drift! With musical styles and rhythms to keep you moving, music from this part of the world is known for its distinct sound. The Paraguayan harp and Paraguayan polka are major players here, and Felipe even gives you some music originating in other parts of Latin America performed by Paraguayan artists! That’s what we like here at Continental Drift: a little bit of cross pollination in this great world of ours…

Also make sure to check out this edition of Global Shuffle where featured the music of our friends on MySpace.com.
