'Chatma' is the new album by Tuareg rockers Tamikrest. The album is a fully persuasive sonic document and is filled with sober reflection, moral indignation, musical experimentation, cultural celebration - and the kick of rock and roll. 'Chatma' translates as "Sisters" and the band have dedicated the album, in their own words, to "the courage of the Tuareg women, who have ensured both their children's survival and the morals of their fathers and brothers."

POLITIKI (Cissoko)

la politique - Politics

La politique n’est pas un jeu. C’est une lourde responsabilité. Celui qui s’y engage, engage des vies : la sienne et surtout celle des autres. Alors, soyez-sûrs, messieurs les politiciens que chacun de vos actes est murement réfléchi. Gare à ne pas décevoir ceux qui placent leurs espoirs en vous et qui comptent sur vos œuvres. Lorsque Dieu exhausse votre vœu de présider aux destinées de votre peuple, faites-en bon usage.
 
Politics is not a game. It’s a heavy responsibility. He who commits himself commits lives; his own and especially those of others. So be sure gentlemen when you implement your politics, that each thing you do is well thought through. Be careful not to disappoint those who count on you and pin their hopes on your work. When God grants you wish to rule over your people’s destinies, put it to good use.

SOUTOURO (Le secret du singe / The Secret of the Monkey)

Tu penses que tu es le plus grand, Oh non tout ce qui est debout tombera un jour !. Soutouro décrit l'action d'aider une personne dans le besoin, mais en restant discret et humble. C'est le secret du singe

You think you're the greatest, oh no everything that is standing will fall one day. Soutouro describes the action to help a person in need, but remaining discreet and humble. This is the secret of monkey

Toumani Diabate at Mt. Carmel College

On the road between Memphis & Bamako. The musical merger of Habib Koité and Eric Bibb brings together two soulful histories into a never-before heard guitar sound that is passionate and ebullient. Growing up in Mali, West Africa, Koité is heir to an ancestral knowledge set to song that places him among the most influential voices of contemporary Africa, while Bibb’s lineage in the traditional blues sound has produced an earthy mix of folk and gospel dating back to the work songs of the deep south. Forging a bridge across the Atlantic, Bibb and Koité are two talents too exhilarating to ignore.

This tune is taken from the album: Brothers In Bamako.

Recorded at Studio Mali in Bamako, in the autumn of 2012, Samba is joined by
his regular band members Djimé Sissoko (n’goni ) and Madou Sanogo (congas,
djembe) and guests such as the legendary, master of the soku (a one-stringed
violin) Zoumana Tereta and the fast-rising Malian neo-traditional singer Aminata
Wassidje Traore. Additionally, Hugo Race (The Bad Seeds, Dirtmusic, Fatalists)
contributes an array of subtle atmospherics on guitar and keyboards.

The Vaults of (Roots Music) Heaven: Chicago’s Old Town School of Folk Music Unlocks the Lost Gems and Wild Creativity of its Live Archives 

Venerable vernacular music institution releases 127 live tracks by the best in American and global music from last half century. 

On a stacks of cassettes, reel to reel tapes and digital audio tapes lay the history of American music. There were local legends and major icons, global musicians and indie rockers. Some captured beautifully from the board, some gleaned quietly from the dusty archives of a radio station, the recordings held wildly creative decades of sound from Chicago’s Old Town School of Folk Music, a roots-music touchstone for nearly 55 years. And no one had heard them.

Joan Baez and Donovan, Big Bill Broonzy and Ella Jenkins, Pete Seeger and Taj Mahal, Martin Carthy and Steve Earle, Doc Watson and Mahalia Jackson: It was a literal who’s-who of folk, gospel, country, bluegrass, blues, and world music, caught in hours of exciting performances. But someone had to put the pieces together—all 127 tracks worth—and someone had to clear all the rights with 85 different artists.

They succeeded, against odds that would have stopped others in their tracks. Live From The Old Town School (Old Town School Recordings; release: December 13, 2011) reveals not only the venerable institution’s storied start, but its role in the recent infusion of new energy into the roots music world, with everyone from Toumani Diabate and Oumou Sangare to Andrew Bird and Lila Downs.
