{"product_id":"wau-wau-collectif_teranga-vinyle_2026","title":"Teranga - Vinyle","description":"Teranga, the last album of the Wau Wau Collectif trilogy, takes its name from the Wolof word that expresses welcome, hospitality, and shared encounters. A title that couldn't be more fitting for a project born from meeting. It all started in 2018 in the village of Toubab Dialaw, where the two musicians Arouna Kane and Karl-Jonas Winquist conceived the idea. Over the years, the project evolved, with the two producers exchanging files on WhatsApp and involving their network of friends and colleagues in what would become the Wau Wau Collectif, leading to Yaral Sa Doom (2021) and then Mariage (2022). Teranga, the third and final part of the trilogy, was finalized and mixed during the group's first live tour, a five-week journey across Europe with \"three Swedes, three Senegalese, and a French driver, a beautiful mess of languages,\" explains Karl-Jonas. The album was composed and performed with no fewer than 26 musicians and lyricists playing an impressive range of instruments: balafon, ngoni, calabash, violin, cello, saxophone, and omnicord. The resulting sound is hard to place, both dreamy and meditative, imbued with an organic, anachronistic soul that looks to the future. \"Oh, Africa\" could feature on a classic reissue with its almost Turkish guitar riff, while \"100 ans,\" their first live studio recording, evokes the early 2000s Amadou and Mariam. As the chapter of the trilogy closes, Karl-Jonas insists: this may just be the beginning.","brand":"Wau Wau Collectif","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58509057917272,"sku":null,"price":23712253.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0666945415240.jpg?v=1789770619","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/wau-wau-collectif_teranga-vinyle_2026","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
