Pape wrote the following about Splice Sessions: Deep Percussion:
At the heart of every African music, beats the rhythm of percussions.
The percussions are the source, the beginning, the place from which all the lights emerge.
Behind every African music, we can hear a rhythm.
Even when stringed instruments carry the song, rhythms can be heard behind it.
In Ghana, Cameroon, Benin, Senegal, all music is born from different rhythms.
Including Le Makossa, Le Bikouti, le highlife, La Rumba, le soukousse, Le tchink system, Le Zouglou, Le Decaller-coupe, Le zinli, le Agbadja, le Tõta, le Achipké, le Mansè, L'Afro-Beat, Le Zékédé Le Tchinkoumin.
Each ethnic group, each tribe, each people proudly carries its rhythm and generally uses it for sacred rites before the uninitiated collect it for less sacred festivals or occasions.
Or simply to brighten up everyday life.
This pack is a deep inner journey for those who desire it, those in search who have a burning desire to sanctify moments.
Or a deep outdoor trip for those who
Just want to make music
