about

In celebration of a decade of the global music diplomacy initiative OneBeat, the “Best Of OneBeat 2012 - 2022 Mixtape” features tracks from 18 OneBeat programs. Since 2012, OneBeat has catalyzed personal transformations and revealed universal experiences through collaborative musical works. Each mixtape serves as a snapshot of a program’s unique energy and spirit, with mash-ups, collaborations, and songs incorporating everything from deeply rooted traditional music to cutting-edge experimental improvisation. The mixtape opens with “Me lleva Luango”, an electronic piece produced during OneBeat Colombia that mixes together rhythmic traditions of the Pacifico Sur with an Afro-Colombian song from Palenque. Weaving through desert dancehall dub from OneBeat 6 (“Yeah Yeah”), an Indian rhythmic journey through Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities (“Zora (Taal Piece)”) from OneBeat 5, an introspective rap about the role of formal education in South Africa (“Too Much To Digest”) from OneBeat 8, and many more, these tracks are only a small sampling of an alumni community that now includes more than 400 incredible artists spread all over the globe. Combined, they showcase the endless possibilities and lasting bonds of OneBeat. We invite past, present, and future OneBeat Fellows to reflect on the last ten years of musical innovation and authenticity with us, and to imagine what’s next!
