Embark on another journey with Edd Bateman as he recounts his inaugural adventure to West Africa in Episode 2 of 'Edd Bateman's Rhythm & Truth.' At 22, with no expectations and zero research, Edd's quest for musical discovery led him to the heart of the Casamance region of Senegal, where he became immersed in the world of a renowned Griot family. Surrounded by kora melodies and percussive rhythms, Edd found his groove among six bands in immediate need of a bassist, playing 4-5 hour concerts and diving deep into the rich tapestry of Senegalese music with legends like Solo Cissokho and artists from Super Diamono.
Over three winters, Edd's return trips to Senegal and efforts to bring Sadio Cissokho's band to the UK for tours marked a pivotal chapter in his musical career, enriching his understanding and love for African rhythms. This episode also ventures into the mystical, revealing Edd's exploration of 'juju'-knife protection witchcraft-with a local witch doctor, adding a layer of intrigue and insight into the cultural depths that influenced his journey. Join Edd for this unforgettable foray into Senegal's musical and magical realms, a story of rhythm, discovery, and transformation.

Thanks a lot Jaygun
Nice breakdown, but i wish sometimes you can breakdown your videos into clips.
Thanks. How about if we released a full episode once a week and a shorter clip at another part of the week?
it's good but why talk every time
Because it's a Podcast. We've filmed 4 episodes so far. From Episode 5 the format might get changed a bit
