Christine Salem is one of the best voices of Maloya (Reunion Island), a musical and poetic style that talks about metisse roots, crossing culture, slavery and black resistance.
Here is a work in progress version, as a tribute to her, and to all this strong and living movment. 
Thanks to DaHaus São Paulo creative labs for human and technical support.

Christine Salem - Komor Blues (Ollie rework)

Original music written by Di Melo in 1975, during military dictature. About opression, and resignation.
First rework released in 2016, during capitalist dictature. Nothing changed that much.
Dedicated to Bárbara Freitas, my dancing warrior from the suburbs of São Paulo. Never give up, sweet love.
This version was especially made for ETHOS dance solo, with a lot of sounds I recorded in São Paulo streets, and published when the brazilian democracy was under conservative attack.
Final version will be released later.
Thanks to all people from DaHaus for their human and technical support, and to Moviemento Akwaaba.
