"Douga Mansa" in the press
Sadie Wren | Pasadena, CA | 10/20/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

""This just might be the new contender to the kora throne." 4 STARS, TOP OF THE WORLD - Songlines



"While Diabate plays his West African harp solo throughout, he frequently sounds like a whole orchestra of them...if it can be said that a kora player can shred, Diabate shreds here." - Lucid Culture



"A feast of bright improvisation and tumbling, breakneck virtuosity, with moments of exquisite, crystalline melodic exploration." -fRoots



"The notes come fast and furious at times, washing over the listener in a gush of melody, but then there are moments where things are like a slow and steady rain...His speed is astonishing and his skills on the instrument impressive." - Global Rhythm"
