Black Mango: Naked Venus b/w Soft Kicks
(10” single/limited edition of 500)

A mysterious two-song release, licensed directly from a group of Bamako musicians who, with the exception of the Souku master Zoumana Tereta, choose to remain anonymous. 

In the last years, the political turmoil in Mali has caused many of the cities clubs to shutdown and dried up other sources of musician income like weddings and festivals. With less work and more downtime, small recording projects like this one have been given more of a chance to happen. The situation continues to be desperate, but the music remains a powerful force: both a refuge and a medicine.

These two Black Mango tracks are ethereal, hard to classify artifacts, seemingly influenced in equal parts by Ali Farka Toure and Lou Reed. In fact, the titles of the songs name check compositions by the recently passed Rock & Roll legend, though they are clearly not cover versions, as much as explorations on themes. The backstory of how and why these two tracks came into being remains untold, and we are left to purely enjoy them as moments captured.

The one credited musician Zoumana Tereta is a legend of Malian music, having played his Sokou, a single-string, horse-hair violin, on albums by Oumou Sangare, Bassekou Kouyate, Samba Toure, the National Ensemble Instrumental du Mali and many others. 

We can only hope that this is not the last musical transmission we will hear from Black Mango.

When Yelli Yelli was a young girl, her mother would often play her recordings of traditional Kabyle music. The songs seemed so mysterious, sung as they were, in a language that she couldn’t understand. But the music captivated her child-like imagination, bound together in a twin dance of melody and rhythm, the songs seemed to bring the voice of a whole people to her ear, planting a seed in her that would later bring her to explore the musical and cultural trace of her own origins. 

The years passed and the child grew up but she never forgot the voices of Kabylie that her mother had played her. Having recorded two Folk albums under the name of Milkymee and looking for new musical routes to take, she met songwriter and producer Piers Faccini and decided to delve, with his guidance, into the secret sounds of her childhood memories. 
And lo and behold, the branch bore fruit and out sprung the true voice of the child her grandfather used to call, Yelli Yelli or “young girl” in Kabyle.

Glitterbeat is committed to global sounds and artists that don’t necessarily rubber-stamp our pre-conceptions of what regional music sounds like.  We live in a world of ever increasing intersections and the global musical conversation does not operate according to straight, predictable, and easily delineated rules. It is a conversation that is being reinvented and revolutionized each day.
