lovely edit! Possible to get a download? :)

What a killer edit. Definitely an upgrade to the original! Is there a way to get my hands on this?

We’re excited to premiere the beautiful and propulsive sounds of "Enkabé Kélékan” by  Burkinabe collective Burkina Azza. 

 "Enkabé Kélékan” is taken from Burkina Azza's debut album, 'Wari Bô',  forthcoming via London’s Social Joy record label. 'Wari Bô' a musical tale that covers every aspect of Burkina Azza’s values and worldview. The album takes us to the very soul of Burkina Faso, giving us a taste of the deep connection of the artists to the beauty and culture of this country. 

The Burkinabe collective, from Nayerina in the Djibasso region, was born from a lineage of balafonists and percussionists musicians called “The Griots”, often referred to as a “living archive of the people's traditions”. 'Wari Bô' was recorded in Ouagadougou, capital of Burkina Faso, in January 2020, on the brink of the worldwide coronavirus pandemic, after label owner Guilhem Monin came across an outstanding street performance via the African Drumming Facebook group the year before. 

Two years later, this release is the result of a friendship and love of music that connects two continents and travels across borders, space and time. Burkina Azza's performances hail the importance of peace, joy and harmony, and education. We can hear this most clearly in the track shared here "Enkabé Kélékan". 

"Music is love, and when we are playing we are in love", the band say. 'Wari Bô' will see release on May 24th on vinyl, limited to just 500 copies, and is available to pre-order now,

Exclusive Premiere: Burkina Azza "Enkabé Kélékan" (Forthcoming on Social Joy)

“Si tu veux,

Quand t’arrives en Côte d'Ivoire, il y a une chaleur qui t’embrasse. Une chaleur de partage, de présence et d’existence. 

C’est la chaleur la plus douce que j’ai déjà rencontré dans ma vie. Elle te lie avec tes racines, tes origines et à ton corps.

Elle crée une sorte de musique qui joue constamment à travers l’air et les gens. 

La Côte d'Ivoire est une pure puissance de vie”.

/

Comme Pedro Bertho aime dire, quelque part entre le Brésil et l’Afrique vit sa musique. Ce DJ et producteur de São Paulo, Brésil, débarque à Lyon en 2019 où il crée de nouvelles amitiés et connexions à travers la musique. Parmi ces rencontres, Dom Peter et le label Blanc Manioc, la “maison des musiques électroniques africaines”. 

Invité par le label cette année, Pedro retrouve le continent africain et Abidjan pour la première fois dans sa vie. Pendant son séjour, il produit avec des talentueux artistes de la scène locale, mixe dans certaines scènes et visite des lieux incroyables et cachés à la recherche de nouvelles sonorités et des nouveaux vinyls pour sa collection. 

Pedro rentre à Lyon avec une bonne vingtaine de nouveaux vinyls, vinyls qu’il n’a pas forcément pu écouter lors de son digging! Maintenant, il nous livre un set 100% vynil avec les couleurs d’Abidjan. Et attention mon p’tit : au moment de la conception de son set, Pedro pratiquement écoutait les tracks pour la première fois, une impro qui dégage une vraie chaleur et créativité!
