CD Reviews

Kickin' out the beat
Jeffrey R. Webb | Huntington Station, NY United States | 11/27/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am familiar with Mor Thiam's artistry from his years with the National Ballet of Senegal and acquired this cd due to that association and was very pleasantly surprised. If you admire great flat out djembe playing you won't be disappointed with cuts like "Worosodon" and "Djembe" which are great new rhythms where the drums are "kickin'". The album is balanced with contemporary rhythms and melodies many in a cool jazz style but with a balance of traditional Senegalese influence.Mor Thiam has managed compose a selection of very contemporary pieces with very strong ties to his traditional roots. This is a must have cd."
