Visions of Selam

Description

The new opus from Arat Kilo, a groove machine of open and exhilarating ethio-jazz, featuring Malian singer Mamani Keita and New York slammer Mike Ladd. With this third album, Arat Kilo decided to change: the group flourishes where it's best (groove) and opens up to other musical cultures. Without ever leaving 1970s Addis Ababa, the group has managed to achieve a real evolution by accentuating the danceable character of its compositions: bass, drums, guitar, keyboard, and brass – a well-oiled groove machine. Arat Kilo has also integrated with astonishing ease two singers accustomed to exploring very different horizons, the Malian Mamani Keita and the American Mike Ladd.
