Description:
OSTINATO, which has been producing many high-quality reissues and is now becoming one of the world's most notable world music labels, presents a new album that conveys the Beja culture inherited from more than 6,000 years ago to the present day! The Beja are a nomadic people who live between the Red Sea and the Nile and Atbara Rivers, from Aswan to the Eritrean plateau. This album is a new recording by Nouri, a descendant of the Beja, and his Dopa Band, based in Port Sudan, a city facing the Red Sea in the eastern part of Sudan. The music is a cross between electric soul, blues, jazz, rock, surf, country, and other musical styles and chords, and the hypnotic grooves of Tuareg, Ethiopian, Peruvian, and Thai music, as well as Nouri's own electric guitar and electric tambour. Nouri plays a self-made four-stringed tambo guitar that sounds like a cross between an electric guitar and an electric tambour, and a saxophone that drifts freely through the air. Few recordings of Béja folk music have survived, and all but a few have been forgotten, so this is probably the first time that Béja melodies have been performed and recorded by an electric band with a brass section.Although the musicality of the music is influenced by a variety of cultures, as is typical of today's music, if you listen closely to the melodies that have been handed down from ancient Egypt, it is almost as if the music was left over from 6,000 years ago. The musical legacy of Béja has been resurrected to the present day, transcending time and space. OSITINATO has done a great job again!
