Product Description

The music for this CD was recorded at the local community center outside Sabalibougou. 'Bougou' means 'Village', although it is located in a city district inside a bustling marketplace outside Bamako, Mali. The community center houses local dancers, drummers and musicians, most of whom play in the center's award-winning group. Many famous district groups from outside the city - and deep in the countryside - also pass through the center. This is how we were able to find some of the other groups and music we recorded as well. The music for this album is traditional, "old school" Bambara-based djembe music. These arrangements were put together by master drummer Aruna Sidibe. He plays and is joined by his students and other musicians. The style is noticeably different than the one played by younger drummers or the "young gun" arrangements, the style currently favored in Bamako, for example. The CD was made using a high-quality flash recorder and excellent microphones. It's surprisingly clear and concise, as are the arrangements, playing styles and techniques. It is my goal to help, in a small way, to preserve the musical culture and heritage through the music my teachers, friends and I are presenting. This being a labor of love, so to speak, any profits made from these recordings go directly to the musicians. ---Michael Pluznick.

Mali Drums: Young Guns (djembe music from Africa!) Siaka Doumbia Manufacturer: earthcds partners ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD General | Africa | International | Styles | Music ASIN: B000STN424 Release Date: 2007-04-01

Product Description

Please visit the earthcds website to see photos of the musicians and to hear samples from this CD. This CD was recorded outside of Sabalibougou at The Centre Togola, a local community center run by director Kareem Togola. 'Bougou' means 'Village' in the Bambara language, although this center is located in a city district inside a bustling marketplace on the outskirts of Bamako, Mali, West Africa. The community center houses local dancers, drummers and musicians, most of whom play in the center's award-winning group. Many famous district groups from outside the city - and deep in the countryside - also pass through the center. This is how we were able to find some of the other groups and music we recorded as well. The music on this project is traditional, 'new school', Bambara-based djembe music. These are popular arrangements, as played by the younger generation djembe players or "Djembe Folas", as they are called in Mali. These arrangements were put together by young master drummer Siaka Doumbia and played with his students: "MC" on konkoni (smallest two-headed drum struck with a stick); Morike on dundunba (largest two-headed drum) and Sekou on second djembe. Old-timer Aruna Doumbia joined in for a few pieces toward the end. The style is different than the older drummers' style or "Old Master" arrangements, the other style played in Bamako. Siaka was and remains our 'go to' guy in Mali. In addition, he is our friend and guide and was able to help arrange other recordings for this project. I met Siaka through our good friend, Paul Chandler, an American musician and music producer who lives in Mali. The CD was made using a high-quality flash recorder and excellent microphones. It is surprisingly clear and concise, as are the arrangements, playing styles and techniques. It is my goal, in a small way, to help preserve the culture and heritage through the music my teachers, friends and I are presenting. As this is a labor of love, any profits made from these recordings go directly to the musicians. ---Michael Pluznick
