A stop-you-in-your-tracks voice instantly familiar to anyone in Mali, West Africa: Rokia Koné, aka the Rose of Bamako. On her debut international release, she’s teamed with Irish-born, California-based rock producer Jacknife Lee —and reimagined the Malian sound in ways leftfield and ground breaking. BAMANAN is a collaboration that connects the great ancient kingdoms of Mali and the bustling modern street life of its capital, Bamako to a remote recording studio nestled within California’s Topanga Canyon. That bridges deep tradition and forward-facing innovation. One of Mali’s most beloved and dynamic artists, Rokia Koné is a force to be reckoned with. Her captivating performances in the city’s local maquis clubs very often last for hours, as Koné runs the gamut of emotion from joy to despair, fury to tenderness, wielding that astounding voice with grace and power. In 2016, she joined feminist supergroup Les Amazones d’Afrique and made her debut on an international stage alongside the likes of Oumou Sangaré, Angélique Kidjo and Kandia Kouyaté. Jacknife Lee is the acclaimed producer of bands including U2, R.E.M and The Killers, and has a Grammy for his work on Taylor Swift’s multi-million selling Red. Stadium-sized soundscapes are his speciality. Yet BAMANAN finds Lee upholding the stark beauty of Rokia’s voice with subtlety and sensitivity. Every nuance and breath is heard, each inflection and melismatic improvisation carefully preserved on this exciting debut.” Artist Rokia Kone & Jacknife Lee Genre World / Fusion Label Real World Buying Options 2LP Format 2LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Bi Ye Tulonba Ye Shezita Kurunba N'yanyan Anw Tile Soyi N'galanba Bambougou N'tji Dunden Mayougouba Mansa Soyari Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from World / Fusion View Product Quick View Yo-Yo Ma and Silk Road Ensemble Sing Me Home Folk | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 21st April 2023 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Yo-Yo Ma and Silk Road Ensemble Sing Me Home £36.00 Genre: Folk Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVCL025 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 21st April 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Santana Africa Speaks Jazz | Concord | 2LP Released 7th June 2019 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Santana Africa Speaks £25.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Concord SKU: 7209085 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 7th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nubiyan Twist Jungle Run World / Fusion | Strut | 2LP Released 15th February 2019 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nubiyan Twist Jungle Run £29.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Strut SKU: STRUT198LP Formats: 2LP Released Date: 15th February 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fela Kuti Gentleman (50th Anniversary Edition) World / Fusion | Knitting Factory | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released 23rd June 2023 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fela Kuti Gentleman (50th Anniversary Edition) £22.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Knitting Factory SKU: KFR2009-8 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 23rd June 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various - 78s from Emi Archive Sprigs of Time World / Fusion | Honest Jon's | 1LP Released 27th November 2008 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various - 78s from Emi Archive Sprigs of Time £13.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Honest Jon's SKU: HJRLP36 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 27th November 2008 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists The Rough Guide to Samba World / Fusion | World Music Network | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 29th June 2015 £12.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Rough Guide to Samba £12.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: World Music Network SKU: RGNET1289LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 29th June 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ronroco Gustavo Santaolalla World / Fusion | Nonesuch | 180g, 1LP Released 26th January 2024 £33.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ronroco Gustavo Santaolalla £33.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Nonesuch SKU: 0075597901627 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 26th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Les Amazones d'Afrique Musow Danse World / Fusion | Real World Records | 1LP Released 16th February 2024 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Les Amazones d'Afrique Musow Danse £25.00 Genre: World / Fusion Label: Real World Records SKU: LPRW258 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th February 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gaby Moreno and Van Dyke Parks ¡Spangled!
