Product Information
Raw and celebratory funeral music from northern Ghana. Hypnotic kologo excursions. Pulsing percussion. Enraptured voices. Recorded 100% live and outdoors by Ian Brennan (Tinariwen, Ustad Saami).
Sixth release from Glitterbeat's acclaimed Hidden Musicsseries. Ian Brennan is a Grammy award winning producer (Tinariwen, Ustad Saami, Zomba Prison Project, Ramblin 'Jack Elliot) and the author of several books, the most recent being: Silenced by Sound: The Music Meritocracy Myth. Hidden Musics is a series of field recording albums that explore lesser known sonic traditions from around the world. Focusing on highly localized sounds as opposed to globalized musical hybrids, the music is raw, time-honored and bound to a specific place. In 2019, the acclaimed Le Guess Who? Festival (Utrecht, Netherlands) introduced a HiddenMusics curation program in participation with producer Ian Brennan and Chris Eckman from Glitterbeat.
