Àbájade - Latopa

We are an 8 musicians band from Paris. Our music mixes afrocuban traditions with some flavors of soul and jazz. We just released our first album 'Latopa', dedicated to the orisha Elegua !

[acevenoms]

Got a hold of my parents’ CD collection and I’m gonna start cataloguing and ripping them for shits and giggles. They both have some kinda rare stuff, my dad was really into afrocuban jazz and world music so there are some obscure albums in those genres. My mom had more normie taste but she has some early 90’s electronica mixes that are probably not easy to come by anymore

im fluent in english and spanish and know some latin remnants which isnt important vut its cool and good for linguistics…also i gaslight people that im french /exag /j

this is long i will reply individually

okay, so in band we basically play our instruments😁😝😁 the ones you usually start out on are flute, trumpet, alto sax, clarinet, or snare drum. im a tenor sax player rn but i started on piano (outside of school) and alto sax in school ^^^^ LUCKY? I WANT THAT BUT I CANT PLAY ANY INSTRUMENT. actually i was oretty good at the flute heh BUT THEN I LOST MY DAMN BOOK

we have to do these concerts… one winter concert and one spring concert ^^^ scary!!! i do not like performances!!! actually idk ive only performed like once. also we were gonna do a play once in our school and i got the lead for act 1 or at LEAST one of the main characters despite wanting a background character AND THEN WE NEVER DID IT AND IM SO MAD???? at tje time though i was probably relieved because i was an ungrateful brat and didnt want the role

there’s like “stages” of band (at least for our school)

there’s the first one, which everyone is automatically in if they joined band. you play like 3 songs ^^^^ not so scary! id maybe survive. also irrelevant but sax is so cool i wanna play the sax

there’s is the second, which is mainly for people who have been doing band for +2 years in our school (or just really good).. you play the three songs from the first stage plus 5 other songs ^^^ a bit complex but ikay!!! kinda like my spanish class!!!!! i probably would survive but SCARECLY. if its about flute that is i cant play any other instrument for the life of me…not even piano

and then there is the third, which is called jazz band. you have to audition to get in, and you play the 8 songs from the other stages plus MORE songs ^^ i freaking LOVE jazz!!!! AUSYGHSHFHF!!!!!!?!!!!!! I LOVE SWING BAND JAZZ AND. SMOOTH JAZZ AND JAZZ CLASSICS AND GRGRGRGEG AND ALSO AFROCUBAN JAZZ?!!? AND MODAL JAZZ AND COOL JAZZ GRGRGRGRG I LOVE MILES DAVIS AND ESPECIALLY JOHN COLTRANE….AND HANK LEVY BECAUSE ONE OF MY FRIENDS GOT ME INTO HIM AND DON ELLIS

i auditioned and got in!! so yippee ^^ congrats! doing what i cant <//3 SIGH…i envy you

uhh chorus is kinda the same except you sing (I THINK) ^^ my friend has that! yeah, basically you sing. idk if she has choir too, or if its the same thing but she definitely has specifically chorus (i remember her saying it, they were doung a frank sinatra song which is cool! i freaking love frank sinatra)

i don’t know much about chorus or the theatre club sadly… 🙁🙁🙁 ^^^ i have two friends in each of those and i am especially jealoud if the theatre kid. she said i give off theatre kid vibes in the best way which is objectively correct btw

-📍anon

so for band you start out with those instruments and only if the teacher is happy with your skills then you get to move on to cool ones like the oboe or the bari sax 👅

I LOVE JAZZ TOO… YOUR SO REAL ON THAT BROSKI ❤️❤️💞💞❤️ and then people have the AUDACITY to say “jazz sucks you are a loser for liking it”

I did a preformabce in theater ONCE because it was kinda a club like thing

I got ensemble and my family got real mad at me because I didn’t get a better role…

pin anon theatre kid CANON ❤️❤️❤️ do you watch musicals

Putumayo Presents – Congo To Cuba

“The rhythms originated in West Africa and originally traveled to Cuba on the slave ships. Since then the music has gone back and forth across the Atlantic countless times, changing slightly on each occasion. This well-composed compilation shows how much Africa and Cuba have in common, kicking off with a smoking “Val Carretero” from Cuba’s Chico Alvarez, before moving to Guinea for Mama Sissoko’s “Safiatou,” where guitar, rather than horns, takes the instrumental lead. And while the emphasis here is more on Africa than Cuba, that’s fine; the music is glorious, most especially the winning voice of Mama Keita on “Tougnafo,” a singer who’ll be a major discovery to a lot of people. There might not be Senegal’s Orchestra Baobab, which is an oversight given their status as one of Africa’s leading Cuban-influenced bands, but in some ways that’s good. By using artists who’ve had little Western exposure, the focus remains on the music, rather than the name, such as Balla Tounkara’s kora-inflected “Le Monde Est Fou.” It’s a transatlantic journey – but you won’t get seasick on this.” – Chris Nickson/AllMusic.
