Mwezi Waq: Deaf And Dumb Blues CD

Coming out of a country where music has long been the repository of memory, Mwezi Waq takes up a tradition of raw language, inspired by that of the ancients. A rhythmic language that is anchored in the daily life and speech of the Comoros. The six performers (guitars, cello, percussion, choir and vocals) put themselves at the service of a repertoire of melodies both new and revived, always engaged, always on the side of the minority masses. The combo is paying tribute to some of the artists who created the strong Comorian scene between 1970 and 2000: Abou Chihabi, Ali Affandi, Boul, Baco, Souleymane Mze Cheikh... The album contains fourteen tracks, including seven covers of old hits. Hits that say No to submission and apathy.
