The first time I was introduced to Ethiopian music, I believe that, like many, it was through the "Ethiopiques" compilations of the French musicologist Francis Falceto. My first reaction was: "my god! From what planet does this music come from, it can't be from planet earth!" This sound is so unique, it makes you go from tears to dance... 

This music comes from the planet earth, it comes from Ethiopia. 

Very quickly, I had the desire to go there to see what made this sound so particular. In October 2017, I flew to Addis Ababa to spend three weeks there. I met some key people without whom my stay would not have been the same. Thanks to them, I could feel on the spot a part of the spirit of this music and also find some of these so rare records.

This mix is in memory of this trip, as a tribute to my friends and also to share the emotions that I have on this so unique music.
