I buy music I download music and
I trade music. I love music. In good times / bad times music never failed me. I
bought this at Renaissance Montréal, again. Never heard of
Bakra Bata before. Two things caught my attention big
time.
1 – The beautiful cover artwork
by Olabayo Olannyi. 2 – With a named like `steel
drums and percussion`, I immediately thought to myself SAMPLING
MATERIAL! I do music / noise. I rarely use percussions / drums. I`m not much of
a musician even though there`s often a rhythmic element included somewhere in my
`music`. The more I hear this album and the happier I
get. It`s too good to sample. I want to enjoy this until the very end. This is
instrumental music using various percussions (steel pan, conga drums, bells,
shakers, vibraphone, marimba, flute and gan gan aka yorouba talking drum from
Nigeria) with an Afro-Caribbean feeling. It is quite festive listening material
it conjures feelings of happiness, numbness and relaxation. They do a great
cover version of `red wine`(a Neil Diamond original). Link here: http://bakrabataband.com/
