   About SAWADU
b>
Africa has a lot of modern things to tell : with Samb, the prodigy from Dakar, though familiar with Brooklyn, with Wassy, the Cameroonian legend, ever bouncing and surprising, and with Dupont (from Paris) and his hypnotic grooves, a new jazz is emerging, urban and multicultural : deeply rooted phrasings, powered by imagination …

In search of a modern folklore, the trio mixes phrasings from the tradition with the most contemporary concepts in jazz, explore unexpected colours, juggle with scary rythmic combinations, stimulating and answering to each other at every moment ... Based on numerous experiences and a long time accomplicity, their musical world is original, groovy and … quite crazy.

Hervé Samb
Guitarist and composer Hervé Samb mixes his origin (Senegal) with american black music, and his own musical fantasy. Burning soloist, he already performed worldwide and recorded with Amadou & Mariam, David Murray , Meshell Ndegeocello , Phaoroah Sanders , Cheikh Tidiane Seck , Jacques Schwarz-Bart, World Saxophone quartet , Richard Bohringer , Boney Fields, Somi, … He is the leader of Crossover.

Hubert Dupont
« Révélation 2005 » in Guitarist-Bass for his bass-solo album « Ultraboles », he then invites Rudresh Mahanthappa, and releases the acclaimed “Spider’s Dance” in 2007. Accomplice of Benoît Delbecq, Guillaume Orti, Chander Sardjoe and Kartet, Stéphane Payen, Thôt and Sabar Ring… he also performed with Robin Eubanks, Steve Lacy, Laurent De Wilde, Magic Malik, Stefano Di Battista, Fabrizio Cassol, Nicolas Genest, Stéphane Galland, Fodé Diop, …

Brice Wassy
Drummer and composer from Cameroon : his groundbreaking versions of bikoutsi, manga mbeu, juju, afrobeat… enlightened Wally Badarou, then Manu Dibango, Myriam Makeba, Salif Keita, Pierre Akendengué, Talking Heads, Jean-Luc Ponty, Graham Haynes, Busi Mhlongo, Anne-Marie Nzié, as well as Francis Bebey, Uta Bella, Touré Kounda, Jacques Higelin , and such jazzmen as Colin Walcott, Don Cherry, Jim Pepper… His own projects, from traditional to modern creations, are always influential.

................................SAWADU en français !

« L’Afrique n’a pas fini d’être moderne : avec Samb, le prodige de Dakar passé par Brooklyn, avec Wassy, le géant, le sage, qui fait remonter les mystères du Cameroun, et avec Dupont (from Paris) et ses grooves hypnotiques, un nouveau jazz s’invente, urbain et cosmopolite : des phrasés aux racines très profondes, et la tête dans l’espace …

A la recherche d’un folklore moderne, les trois musiciens fusionnent les phrasés de la tradition et du jazz le plus contemporain, explorent des couleurs inouïes, jonglent avec des décalages effarants, se répondant et se stimulant à chaque instant ... Forts de leurs expériences multiples et d’une longue complicité, ils construisent ensemble un univers singulier, groovy et allumé… »

Hervé Samb
Guitariste et compositeur, né au Sénégal, le jeune Hervé Samb mène son groupe Crossover.

Sa polyvalence et son ouverture artistique continuent d’en surprendre plus d'un.

Hubert Dupont

Quand un quatuor classique s'enflamme sur un rythme à 5 temps, porté par un quartet de jazz et des tambours de l'Afrique et des Antilles, notre sale histoire commune liée par les chaînes de l'esclavage s'écrase devant l'évidence que l'humanité respire et gronde dans l'altérité.

Hey there,
Here's one from left field...
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible.
Help to raise awareness.
Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently?
Take care and keep in touch.
Best,
Faber.
