Dobet Gnahoré - Miziki [Media Nocte] 2018 FLAC

klinkt als Erykah Badu, maar dan met een Afrikaans sausje er over. Erg swingend. 

There are some voices that only need a couple of minutes to put the public under their spell. Dobet Gnahoré has one of those voices.”

Dobet Gnahoré, a singer, dancer and percussionist from the Ivory Coast, inherited the force of the “Bété“ tradition from her father, Boni Gnahoré, a master percussionist who plays with the Abidjan”based Ki”Yi Mbock Company, directed by Werewere Liking.!!In this artistic collective Dobet learned music, dans, theatre during several years.

It was within this Ivory Coast” based company that Dobet met French guitarist Colin Laroche de Féline, who went there to immerse himself in African melodies and rhythms. Having spent some time in the well”known Tché Tché dance company, Dobet decided with Colin (in 1999) to form a twosome, Ano Neko, which means “Let’s create together“ in Bété language.
