Organizando o estudio, peguei uma caixa de congada do Mato Grosso
que se parece com um Bendir, mais herança árabe no Brasil, e comecei
a tocar brincando. Então me veio esse ritmo da música, assim como
a melodia e logo gravei o guimbre e percussão com as palmas da
mão. Amine tocou Bendir e Karkaba e Mehdi e Khalid tocarem as
palmas polirritmícas marroquinas em Aghadir-Marrocos. No Brasil,
Marcelo gravou sax soprano dobrando minha voz. Esse tema tem
estrutura de música eletrônica, que para mim na sua essência é uma
forma contemporânea de tentar se conectar com a Terra, algo que as
culturas tradicionais não perderam.Esse elo está presente em todo
meu trabalho.

Tidying up in the studio, I took a drum usually used in congadas from
Mato Grosso but that looked similar to a bendir and started to mess
around with it. This rhythm came to me as well as a melody and then I
recorded Guimbre and percussion with the palms of my hands. In Aghdir,
Morocco, Amine played Bendir and Karkaba, Mehdi and Khalid played
a Moroccan polyrhythmic pattern with their hands. In Brazil, Marcelo
recorded soprano sax, doubling my voice. This track has a structure like
a piece of electronic music, that for me in its essence is a contemporary
way of trying to connect with the Earth, something that traditional
cultures haven’t lost. This connection is present in all of my work.

Lors d’une organisation du studio, j’ai attrapé une boîte congada du
Mato Grosso qui ressemble à un Bendir, pourtant un héritage arabe au
Brésil, et j’ai commencé à jouer au hasard. Il m’est apparu ce rythme
de la musique, ainsi que la mélodie, et tout de suíte j’ai enregistré le
guimbre et la percussion avec des claquements de mains. Amine
a joué du Bendir et Karkaba et Mehdi et Khalid ont joué les clapes
polyrythmiques marocains en Aghadir-Maroc. Au Brésil, Marcelo a
enregistré sax soprano doublant ma voix. Ce thème a une structure de
musique électronique, pour moi en essence une manière contemporaine
d’essayer de se connecter avec la Terre, quelque chose que les cultures
traditionnelles n’ont pas perdu. Ce lien est présent dans tout mon travail.
