Urban World Records Presents - Global Bass Vol. 3

Today I'm happy to inform you about the release of the compilation Gobal Bass Vol. 3. Brought to us by Urban World Records. It's available on vinyl and as digital release. This is what the head of the label Akwaaba Music, BBrave, says about it:

"Get your visas - you're bound for a global party For the third time, UrbanWorld Records has done an impeccable job at filtering the best, and sharing the absolute cream of the crop in this perfectly packaged compilation. With one foot in a Colombian picó, the other in a Frafra wedding celebration, and yet another set of limbs in grimy warehouses pounding with heavy bass, Global Bass Volume 3 will have your head traveling at a thousand miles per second, from Barranquilla to Copenhagen, Bolgatanga to Varna. The global music revolution is stomping ahead, and UrbanWorld will transport you onto this wild ride. These beats will leave no one immobile. You have been warned."
