   About Tartit
Nothing is more evocative of the fascinating expanses of the Sahara desert than the music of Tartit, a Tuareg band consisting of five women and four men residing in the Timbuktu region. Tartit play hypnotic, trance-inducing music: the women sit down, sing, and play cyclic rhythms on their tinde drums, while the men sing and play string instruments, acoustic and electric. The men are veiled, the women aren't. Tuareg society is one of the few throughout Africa in which women are allowed to choose (and divorce) their husbands. The band was formed in a refugee camp, during the Tuareg uprising in the early '90s. Tartit have toured Europe several times, most recently as part of the Desert Blues shows. The album was recorded in Bamako and in the northern Mali desert by (Congotronics producer) Vincent Kenis, on his mobile studio.

Les labels Reaktion & Tapsit sont très heureux de vous présenter 2 nouvelles productions de musique touarègue :

TERAKAFT : LIVE 2008
6 titres enregistrés live pendant la tournée Européenne 2008, avant que Kedou ne quitte le groupe. Inclus 2 titres inédits : “Targa” et “Ewarnanagh”

AZAWAD : LIVE 1999
Derrière le nom d’Azawad se cachent trois membres d’origine du collectif Tinariwen : Abdallah, Hassan et Kedou. Voici les enregistrements live réalisés en 1999 à Angers, de ce qui peut être consideré comme le premier concert de Tinariwen hors d’Afrique.

Les 2 albums sont disponibles uniquement en téléchargement sur toutes les plateformes légales (iTunes, emusic...).
En exclusivité sur tamasheq. net : les morceaux + les livrets numériques (anglais & français).

Thanks for the add. Hope you have a great 2009.

Lovers in Lake

I swim,
in the light of the moon glade
prying back the rusted shutters
of the night.

The water is deep
and I too exhausted to return
safely ashore.

I swim,
certain you beckoned me
my lady of the lake,
into the shimmering reflection
of my faith.

You are elusive,
yet closer than I
and embrace me completely
like lovers,
as the water slowly drains
from my back
into the lake
of night.

Salam!
I am an Iranian sax player living and playing in NYC. I have been knowing you and your music for a long time. In fact, I was in Bamako for a concert with Salif a couple of years ago. Unfortunately at that time I had no time to travel to the North of Mali to meet Ali Farka Toure and you. Maybe next time?! I would love to play with you. I am sure my sax sound would fit to yours.
Cheers,
Sohrab
