Release Notes:
"Kekele" rassemble des musiciens et chanteurs qui,
tous, ont en commun le gout de la rumba congolaise.
"Kekele" est un mot lingala qui veut dire "liane,
lien".s
Avec ce nom, ces artistes ont voulu relier les
generations et faire en sorte que chacun d'entre
nous, quelque soit son age, revienne a la source de
la musique congolaise des annees 50 et 60.
"Kekele" vient de sortir chez Stern's Music un
nouvel album intitule "Kinavana". "Kinavana" est
dedie au musicien cubain Guillermo Portabales, un
des grands precurseurs de la rumba !
It traveled from Congo to Cuba to Congo.... some
say from Cuba to Congo to Cuba. No matter the
origins, the roots of rumba are too intertwined to
separate anymore, and the music is as strong today
as it was at its birth. On their 2006 recording,
Kekele have created a tribute to Cuban songwriter,
singer and guitarist Guillermo Portabales with a
solid set, joined by legendary saxman Manu Dibango,
singer Madilu "System" Bialu, the grande dame of
Congolese music Mbilia Bel and some of New York's
finest including Nelson Hernandez and singer Isabel
Martinez. Rock solid roots!
