Also, his phrasing for the soloing in Kuku is also not consistent with the original dance movements of this dance... What tribe is this version of Kuku from in West Africa? Just curious 🧐
From what I’ve studied in the last 25 years as far as West African traditional djembé music, that first accompaniment does not belong in Kuku... I never used that second one either. I love and highly respect Maitre Madou Konates work, but those Djembé parts for Kuku are questionable. Peace, Balance and Strength, Ethnomusicologist Patrice Txi Txi (from Angola)
Super. Really clear and good sound. Thank you!

The Dunun parts I am familiar with. No questions about those.
Very nice
