An extraordinary Salsa band from London comprised of
musicians from all the world creating their own unique type
of Salsa. A sound that is reflective of Salsa from London
and is not restricted to any influence from any other musical
styles or sound and will continue to develop as long as el
sonido y el ritmo de la musica sea hermoso. Check out
their soon to be released new single 'Escuchame'. On stage
in a live environment Mezcla de Londres tiene la energia y
la fuerza found in very few bands on these shores, the
evidence of which you can experience in their Videos

The Meal Concept
People in Cambridge don’t have the choice of international
cuisines when eating out, and ethnic ingredients and
produce are not always easy to find locally for cooking at
home. Interest in the foods, food history, and eating culture
of other countries has grown exponentially despite this all
this. What more accessible way is there to learn about a
culture than how its people satisfy and glorify a basic
human need?
M enelikMusic offers people the opportunity to know
the food and culture of the bands that perform at St
Paul’s Centre. We believe this is ideal for country
studies, and for enhancing a foodie's cultural
knowledge. We will endeavour to regularly invite guest
speakers/food historians specialising in the country or
region's cuisine, to give us a brief talk prior to dancing
our socks off.

As you probably know by now, we started a project in
the Democratic Republic of Congo (Kinshasa), which
we hope to accomplish by December 2008. It is a
