Orchestra Baobab: Tribute to Ndiouga Dieng

[rudyscuriocabinet]

[Music] Orchestra Baobab – Mouhamadou Bamba Senegalese band Orchestra Baobab were my first major introduction to Afrobeat and the wealth of music the African continent had during the 60s, 70s and 80s.

End of Year Wrap-Up 24/12/2018

Happy Merry to all you readers!

I’ve had a great year but all us music fans have had an even better one! Streaming services mean that now more than ever we can experience the musical output from all corners of the globe (though overwhelmingly the English-speaking parts of it) to understand different points of view, learn of the goings on in other parts of the world and most importantly indulge ourselves in a bit of a boogie. All the moods, genres and feels you could think of are out there, so over the holiday period perhaps try and listen to something new. Who knows it might break the tension with that younger/older relative round the xmas table when you find they also happen to like k-pop/jazz-funk/grindcore or at the very least you can bicker about the tragedy of the current album charts (Greatest Showman: 21 weeks!). To aid you in your quest for knowledge/excitement/small-talk I have spent almost 30 minutes curating a best-of for both albums and singles in the year of 2018. 

(NB even with my album-a-day policy, there’s no way I can get through everything I want to within the 365, so if your fave appears ignored, let it be known that I probably haven’t heard it yet. The full list of everything I’ve listened to this year is at the bottom)

So in no particular order:

Albums

If I had voted in the PnJ 2018

...there’s not enough time in the year personally or professionally to listen as much as I’d like to. But, if I had been asked to vote in the Pazz and Jop , this would be my ballot with points assigned. And, some albums I’d like to give a shout out to in the Lagniapppe section that just missed the cut. The dividing line between top ten and these is pretty thin. All listed below gave me a lot of pleasure amid a painful year, but these were the ones I’d truly return to again in the future. I’m not gonna list the albums that missed the cut but maybe I’ll start posting my listening habits here this year and that depends on how busy work and family keep me.  1. Waxahatchee- Out in the Storm- [25]

2. St. Etienne- Home Counties- [15]

3. Protomartyr- Relatives in Descent- [15]

4.  Fred Thomas- Changer- [10]

5. Robyn Hitchcock- S/T  - [10]

6. Nnamdi Ogbonnaya: DROOL-[5]

7. Starlito & Don Trip- Step Brothers 3- [5]

8. Slowdive- S/T-[5]

9. Replacements- For Sale: Live at Maxwell's 1986-[5]

10. Les Amazones d'Afrique- Republique Amazone- [5]  Lagniappe: Grateful Dead- May 1977: Get Shown the Light Prince & the Revoution- Purple Rain Remastered Deluxe Edition Pallbearer- Heartless Dylan Hicks- Ad Out John Moreland- Big Bad Luv Pere Ubu - 20 Years In A Montana Missile Silo Cloud Nothings- Life Without Sound Rolling Blackouts- French Press EP Harriet Tubman Trio- Araminta Craig Finn- We All Want the Same Thing The Perceptionists- Resolution Lorde- Melodrama Mastodon- Emperor of Sand William Parker- Meditation/resurrection Beth Ditto- Fake Sugar Mad Professo & Jah 9- Mad Professor Meets Jah9 In The Midst of the Storm Body Count- Bloodlust GirlPool- Powerplant Angaleena Presley- Wrangled Jay Z- 4:44 Rolling Blackouts- Talk Tight Orchestre Baobab- Tribute to Ndiouga Dieng

Orchestra Baobab / Tribute To Ndiouga Dieng

【#DayByDayCDreview】

オーケストラ・バオ��ブ『ンディウガ・ディエンに捧ぐ』

　待ってました！私をアフリカ音楽の世界にどっぷりと引きずり込みお店の名前にまでしてしまった（笑）セネガルのレジェンド・バンド『オーケストラ・バオバブ』が10年ぶりの新作を発表！乾いたギターのイントロにティンバレスと多幸感溢れるホーン隊が絡むこれぞ『オーケストラ・バオバブ』な一曲目からセネガルの首都ダカールの喧噪と時折吹く心地良い大西洋からの海風やカフェトゥーバの香りを想い出させてくれる素晴らしい作品。今作には昨年来日した "セネガルの才人"シェイク・ローや元バオバブのリードボーカルでセネガルを代表するシンガー"チョーン・セック"も参加し、昨年急逝したリードボーカル"ンディウガ・ディエン"の偉大な功績を讃えている。更に今作にはコラ奏者が入りトラディショナルも演奏するなどバオバブの新たな一面も聴かせてくれる。アフリカ音楽ファンはもちろん全ての音楽ファンに聴いて欲しい傑作の登場！ text by YOSUKE BAOBAB (月刊ラティーナ2017年4月号掲載)

A few interviews from the Beat Swap Meet in Santa Ana. Interviews with DJ Hazze (The Movement), Hip Hop Storm Trooper, Artson (emcee and business owner), and Bumpbox. I was also lucky enough to have Kid Frost do a drop for the show.

I also went to a warehouse rave in DTLA this past weekend. After RSVP’ing on FB, you had to call a number after 9PM for the location. Just like the good ‘ol days. Ron D Core and Theo were two of the several djs on hand for the night.

2017

Montei uma lista de discos nacionais e internacionais que mais me encantaram nesse ano, por reconhecer a importância que a música tem na minha vida, dado que o compromisso de muitas pessoas desconhecidas que subiam discos inteiros em blogs, fazendo circular registros fundamentais da nossa história, contribuíram para formar a educação que eu não tive, sendo fundamental para o meu reconhecimento enquanto Ser. Existe apenas um desejo de comunhão e não de competição.

Orchestra Baobab - Tribute to Ndiouga Dieng (album cover)

[themarsupials]

100 Best Albums of 2017, pt. 2

75. Future Islands – The Far Field

Future Islands tread familiar ground with a rich, engrossing sound that never actually needs a show-stopping single like “Seasons (Waiting On You)” – it’s life affirming stuff throughout, anchored as always by Samuel T. Herring’s incomporable voice.

 74. Sacred Paws – Strike A Match

Utterly charming indie pop straddling England and Scotland, this duo’s debut LP is the aural equivalent of a hedgehog hanging out in a row terrace garden.

 73. Asgeir – Afterglow

Although not as well-received as his breakthrough, In the Silence, Asgeir still hits the spot time and again with smooth, warm production, like musical dulce de leche.

 72. Cold Beat – Chaos By Invitation

Expect big things to come for this one woman band, whose art pop sounds range from Beach House’s widescreen expansiveness, to the introspective intimacy of early New Order. 

 71. Aye Nako – Silver Haze

Totally embracing – and emphasizing – their status through self-appointed labels like “homo pop” and “queercore”, this debut LP is a breath of fresh air in its unbridled, joyously noisy lo-fi sound.

 70. Courtney Barnett & Kurt Vile – Lotta Sea Lice

Coming across like eavesdropping on conversations between a couple of friends, these duets may not match either artist’s solo work, but that’s not the point; this is an endearingly casual, effortless listen.

 69. Biscotti – Like Heaven in the Movies

The best bands create their own private universes, and that’s exactly what Biscotti have done with this subtle gem; a utopian pop fantasy of 60s-Italian-inspired nostalgia.

 68. Blanck Mass – World Eater

Appropriately titled, indeed; many of these dense, impossible-to-ignore behemoths of noise sound like they could swallow whole planets, yet it’s the perfect album to listen to on headphones, for a moment of blissful solitude.

 67. Juliette Seizure & The Tremor Dolls – Seizure Salad

Second LP from the already-legendary Adelaide sextet may be a case of “second verse, same as the first,” but when commit to your bubblegum-garage-punk aesthetic as perfectly as these guys, who cares?

 66. Petra Glynt – This Trip

Possibly the most appropriately-titled record of the year, this former visual artist’s art-pop is psychedelic headspin of swirling sounds, anchored by impressively powerful vocals.

 65. Kelly Lee Owens – Kelly Lee Owens

For her debut LP, this Welsh musician has created a space of thoroughly intoxicating ambient pop – kinda like a more inviting Jenny Hval.

 64. Mega Bog – Happy Together

Another one-woman band, creating deconstructed art-pop, with silky production and lashings of saxophone; the perfect soundtrack for quiet moments in a rainy city – put it on in your favourite bookstore.

 63. Showtime Goma – Smiley Face

A world away from her other job in hipster-shoegazers A Sunny Day in Glasgow, Jen Goma creates exuberant DIY indie pop, bursting with ideas like the attention-grabbing opener “Oh Shit.”

 62. Somnium – Omnism

Like Adelaide’s own King Gizzard, Somnium have achieved a psych-garage masterstroke, packed with impressively knotty instrumentals and balls-to-the-wall fun.

 61. Tim Cohen – Luck Man

Tim Cohen plays the role of the aw-shucks, loveable sad-sack perfectly on this modest record of subtle, grown-up tunes, with touches of self-deprecating black humour, introspection, and redemption.

 60. Gabriel Garzon-Montano – Jardin

A kaleidoscopic and impressively rich pop sound for a debut, this record draws in influences equally from pop, soul and funk, polished with enough quirks and details for a pan-North American sound, equally at home in California, Miami or Montreal.

 59. Daniele Luppi & Parquet Courts – Milano

Italian producer Daniele Luppi, New York’s Parquet Courts, with numerous guest vocals from Karen O – sounds like a recipe for the coolest record of the year, and, in a throwaway, effortless way, it almost is.

 58. Charlotte Gainsbourg – Rest

Gainsbourg’s previous album, IRM, was overly dominated by the influence of its producer and key songwriter, Beck; having learned from that album’s lessons, here, she aims stratospherically higher and truly comes into her own as a singer and songwriter on a massive pop record dealing with grief and intimacy.

 57. Orchestra Baobab – Tribute to Ndiouga Dieng

Ndiouga Dieng performed with this legendary Senegalese band since the late 1970s; as the title suggests, this record is a tribute to Dieng, who passed away in 2016, and the band’s first in a decade. The sound is classic Orchestra Baobab; revitalized and immediately inviting, yet still contemplative and reflective.

 56. The Bombay Royale – Run Kitty Run

The Melbourne band continue their singular musical odyssey, delving deeper into their influences of Bollywood, funk, and 70s-inspired soundtracks – there’s still no other band that sounds like this.

 55. Washed Out – Mister Mellow

Another appropriately-titled – and appropriately-covered – album; Ernest Weatherly Greene Jr.’s third album as Washed Out is a smooth, chilled junkyard of aural bric-a-brac, a sampledelic pleasure of gooey lounge-pop.

 54. Valerie June – The Order of Time

A mighty set of tunes fusing the traditions of blues, country, folk and soul, June’s supreme confidence and exuberance – not to mention her astonishing vocal delivery – is the perfect medicine for a year missing the Alabama Shakes.

 53. Tinariwen – Elwan

The Malian legends continue their desert-blues odyssey, this time with extra grit to their sound, not at all tempered or distracted by the contributions of famous friends like Kurt Vile and Mark Lanegan.

 52. Oh Sees – Orc

Astonishingly, this is the twentieth studio album in the [Thee] Oh Sees universe, and it finds bandleader John Dwyer deconstructing traditional garage rock ever further, from the totally wigged-out frenzy of lead track “The Static God,” to more spacious, alien arrangements further on.

 51. Beaches – Second of Spring

The subtle cover art and simple titles do not prepare the listener at all for the gargantuan, psych-rock behemoth of an album contained within; across seventeen songs, this Melbourne quintet achieve a monstrous, exhilarating sound like few other bands today.
