The contrast is best expressed when the three instruments as layers are stacked: not a wall of soun


Malick Pathe Sow signed in 2008 with "Maayo Men 'for the first release of Muziekpublique. On the third, trade products "Blindnote" he is told along with five other musicians and the recently trade products released fifth album of the Brussels organization Sow again at now with his compatriot Bao Sissoko. Both have made the crossing from Senegal to Belgium, but that has not led to musical trade products compromises: on "Aduna" they sound through and through traditional African.
The roots of Sow lie with the Peulh, a West African nation of nomads, Sissoko in Mandinka, but who hears the two busy, no more would be a direct blood ties suspect. The obvious and almost careless virtuosity of the two complement each other and respond to each other, creates a gently trade products undulating sound that great musical storms are unnecessary. The ripples on the water and the satiny, unblemished polished sound combined with repetitive structures and dynamics rather flat drawing for a quiet, musical telling trend, trade products both in the instrumental pieces as that in which Sow sings.
Yet the music on this CD is far from unambiguous. Through the use of different rhythmic concepts, instrumental combinations and relationships succeed Sow and Sissoko in order to give each song its own identity without creating drastic fault lines. Essential for the album is the contrast between the glittering fairy kora Sissoko and drier, some shuffling sound of Sows huddo. Sow on guitar moves somewhere between these two extremes.
The contrast is best expressed when the three instruments as layers are stacked: not a wall of sound, but a subtle braid which every component remains perfectly audible and fulfills a specific role. With the input of the voice of singer Talike Gelle, soft percussion, the lilting erhu (Chinese violin) or tembur from the Middle East, the sound on some tracks nicely touched up, a rich but modest supplement, though it may be said that Sissoko and Sow use among the two of them already many different registers.
Where in 'Bilbasi' Sow who lays the foundation for the more free flowing Sissoko, the rollers are in the following 'Fedde' reversed. In the title track trudges music, like moving trade products in 'Niani Bagne After' with a soft-pounding roller metrics. "Borom Learn 'shows trade products again hear the typical African stops that the piece includes a hiccupping rhythm.
That it can and should also simpler, the duo demonstrates in the gently smiling 'Ndaw Welnde "which means" what a beautiful day. " In other pieces grab Sow and Sissoko to existing African music or find their inspiration in African history and culture, Islam or social issues (with songs dedicated to the women's organization Fedde or Gams that opposes female genital mutilation). However, it happens all with a musical softness that goes beyond any kind of loud roaring excitement or indignation. Elegance and fijnbesnaardheid trade products are clearly more the style of the musical trade products pair of brothers, what 'Aduna' makes an equally gentle as rich CD.
