Recorded across three different phases and studios, it’s a trifecta of experimental synth sounds, slinky dub grooves and dynamic percussion. Sancocho Trifásico represents the creation - and celebration - of Latin American dance music across time and space, inspiring convivial gathering in every note.</p><p><a href="https://empanadasilegales.com/" title="https://empanadasilegales.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">empanadasilegales.com</a></p><p><br></p><h3><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1334557378031785" title="https://www.facebook.com/events/1334557378031785" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">RSVP on Facebook</a></h3><p><br></p><h3>Refund Policy</h3><p>No refunds, unless event is cancelled.
