Tradici๏nes ★ 07 | XOGN | Ritmos y recuerdos de nuestras tierras by Cosmovision Records published on 2021-05-18T18:45:01Z Tradici๏nes ★ 07 - Ritmos y recuerdos de nuestras tierras (100% Vinilos) by @xogn Release date: | June. 11 . 2020 Label: @cosmovisionrecords ⋘ ────── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ────── ⋙ About this journey : It's a real pleasure to be invited by Comsovision Records. Thanks a lot. How does one interpret "Tradiciones", the theme of the series ? In its first sense, tradition is the (collective) memory of what has been and must be transmitted and enriched. History, culture, music. Sharing allows for rememberance. Tradition and transmission become one. My particular history with Senegal naturally turns me towards this country. And my love for Cape Verde makes me want to take you there too. Geographical proximity, bilateral diaspora, common history. And, on both sides, a music to stir your guts. So I dug in the bottom of my (cooking) pot to extract some records from the 70s and 80s. Hoping to make you discover some of them... and want to taste more. To the sound of percussions, the journey begins in the forest of Casamance. It continues in the River Valley, around baobabs of the Serer country, in the streets of Thies, up to the port of Dakar. Latin rhythms mingle with those of the sabar, the energy of the tama collides with the praise of the griots. The voices of Laba Sosseh and Pape Seck flirt with those of Youssou Ndour and Omar Pene. Salsa and mbalax become one. Fonseca (of Senegalese mother and Cape Verdean father) then invites us to raise the anchor. We leave the land, we take the sea. Islands under the wind meet Islands in the wind. From the volcano of Fogo to the bay of Mindelo, calm follows the storm, joy unites with sadness. Guided by the cadences of coladeira, tabanka, funana, cumbia. Lulled by the songs of Bana and Cesaria. Fatteliku (memory) and sodade (nostalgia) become one. ⋘ ────── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ────── ⋙ About @xogn: My musical culture swings somewhere between Brussels and Dakar. I spent 10 years in Senegal. There I run a music shop, co-organised the monthly "Koulgraoul" parties and co-hosted radio shows. Step by step, African music has become a real passion. Back in Belgium, I specialized in records sale, being dj regularly for African and Tropical parties. And I really enjoy mixing at Kiosk Radio every month! By the way, "XOGN" comes from Wolof (Senegalese language). That's what we call grilled rice. So, it means "cooking-pot bottom" ("Fond de marmite")...where my spicy records come from! 👉🏼 kioskradio.com/artist/xogn Genre World Comment by Eliana Martins 💃💃💃👏💃👏💃👏💃👏 2023-03-08T14:56:44Z Comment by alain 🙏? 2021-11-26T18:55:33Z Comment by Matty S (Discothèque Tropicale) @xogn please could I ask for the ID on this one? 2021-08-20T22:09:34Z Comment by Matty S (Discothèque Tropicale) beautiful 2021-08-20T10:02:03Z Comment by Kinomyz très bon ! possibilité d'avoir le nom du morceau ? 2021-08-18T11:37:13Z Comment by theSUNgod Cosmic 2021-08-17T13:39:00Z Comment by El MELóMANO ALEMáN genial! <3 2021-07-26T19:35:24Z Comment by Julien Biagio Have to ask for another ID just too good! 2021-07-10T11:54:15Z Comment by Julien Biagio Great tape! could I get a track Id on this song? 2021-07-10T11:50:15Z Comment by theSUNgod Love the selection 2021-07-01T17:30:34Z Comment by KAbi lovely selection 2021-06-24T15:13:53Z Comment by Don Mescal incroyable 2021-06-14T21:11:09Z Comment by Cosmovision Records merci pour ce super voyage 2021-06-12T17:59:29Z Comment by icke selbst great Set 🙌 supported 🤙 2021-06-07T12:34:11Z
