Burkina Electric - Paspanga

Os Burkina Electric dizem-se a primeira banda de electrónica surgida no Burkina-Faso. Como eu não sou um grande conhecedor da música do Burkina Faso, vou acreditar. O seu álbum Paspanga, saído já este ano, vem com electrónicas, afrobeats, world music, exotismo e energia rítmica. Daqui, o seguinte:

"Burkina Electric is the first electronica band from Burkina Faso, in the deep interior of West Africa. With its main base in the music scene of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso's capital, it is, at the same time, an international band, with members living in New York, U.S.A. and Düsseldorf, Germany, as well as in Ouaga. In Burkina Electric's music, the traditions and rhythms of Burkina Faso meet and mingle with contemporary electronic dance culture, making it a trailblazer in electronic world music. Before starting Burkina Electric in 2004, band members Maï Lingani, Wende K. Blass, Pyrolator, and Lukas Ligeti had become close friends as members of Beta Foly, a group that emerged from a workshop led by Lukas and Pyrolator in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, which, among other experiments, created some of the earliest fusions of techno/trip-hop with African traditional music."
