· by Ralph Boncy

Haitians have been dancing kompa continuously for almost 65 years and vaudou rock since the early 1990s. It took a young recruit with a forward-looking eye to dust off the repertoire and plug it all back in! Son of Skandal singer Patrick Brun, who heralded in 1988 the triumph of a new generation of Afro-electro enthusiasts, Michael is the visionary whiz kid who does the job effortlessly, using the voices of BélO, Eddy Boukan Ginen François and Coralie Hérard. Smart, opportunistic… irresistible!
