@hanoiragmen

3 ай бұрын

No but what's so interesting is they're not. There's a 3/2 polyrhythm going on. The band is playing to a 3 feel (which you could categorize as 6/8 but shouldn't because the drummer and bass are playing complete units in the span of 3 pulses, so it's really 3/4) - but they are stamping their feet (and the kids are clapping) to a feel that fits 2 claps in that same space. So band plays in 3, kids clap in 2. For me, and I think a lot of American / European musicians, it's a groove that I can definitely enjoy but might have trouble dancing/clapping to! For folks raised in a West African or North African musical context (it happens alot in Morocco Gnawa music as well), this is a fundamental groove. I think what's coolest is that the 3 lays down the fundamental beats, and the 2 is actually the pattern that creates the groove by riffing off the foundation in a syncopated fashion. So what these kids are intuitively engaging with is the more interesting of the two options! Not trying to be annoying or rude, just saw your comment and it made me want to discuss.

I think part of the deal with that show was that they were "inspiring" with their attitude, but everyone in the audience had the sense "That's not so hard, I can do that, and probably better than those idiots on stage" and lots of them were exactly right. I wold love it if these shows inspire a new Joy Division/New Order, but it would be in a different, more directly positive way.

Given the appalling, corporate, formulaic state of mainstream western music Africa looks to me like being the seat of a revival of all that was exciting and innovative musically. These guys will inspire thousands of young people to pick up instruments and form real bands. Great stuff! The lady dancing to the first track sets the mood brilliantly.

hell yeah

27:02 - 27:29 that guitar riff, bassline and the high hat rhythm have a real stoner rock vibe. It's a cruising riff. 👍

Gorgeous...and like many others here...I'm feeling very emotional listening to this...my eyes filled with tears and I'm not quite sure why. Maybe it's because their music feels like a celebration of life and humanity. Whatever it is, it's beauty beyond words.

Probably because you're a white liberal and these people are black and therefore you feel as if you have to have a greater appreciation of what they do in order to be a good liberal

That whole genre of Blues from African countries is mind blowing. Great concerts by the way.

Not the sound that I was expecting. This is incredible.

I have no idea how this was pushed in my direction. I’d vaguely heard of Mdou Moctar, the music scene there and coup d'état occurred in Niger resulting resulting in the band’s exile. I’d never HEARD the band until now though. Wow! Incredible stuff. The rhythm section is stunning all of it is. I’m so happy to have found this.

Just awesome! The drummer is soooo tight. Bass is laid down with ease. I can't understand a word he's saying but the guitar speaks a language we all know. Fantastic!

I'm dancing with your audience!! Very cool sound!! From Japan.

Leo Fender would be PROUD!Guys and Gals we grew up in the Greatest generation with the development of electric instruments!

Im also amazed at how few insects were attracted to the lights ! 👍

I love the one lady starting the dance and showing its ok to really take on the full experience of this music!!

The spirit of rock is alive and well in these men. The west seems to have forgotten what rock and roll means, but maybe we don't need it anymore... These brave people can take it and make it into whatever it needs to become. Bless.

This is fun! Love from Poland. 🤍❤

Dont know why this was recommended to me, but glad it was. music: the universal language. love it

The lead guitar/ vocalist plays his instrument fingerstyle too. It doesn't get any better than that!

Just listened to the studio version. It's beautiful in a different way, but it's missing the groove of this legend on the drums.
