Boddhi Satva and Abel Tabu have fused their interpretation of African Music by returning to their roots, providing us with one of the most interesting projects this year on ATAL MUSIC.
They asked the talented Congolese guitarist, Danny Mpiana, to bless their production with a true Central African musical feeling ensuring they capture and soothe both heart and soul of dancers and listeners worldwide.
The name Boddhi Satva has become for the most part, synonymous with deep, Afro-ancestral beats, melodies and rhythms. All these elements and more are present in his past productions, so it's only fitting that he capitalize on this trend and join forces with his friend Abel Tabu to bring forth the best of both musical backgrounds.
Artist/producer Abel Tabu is signed to the French label Because (Justice, Manu Chao, Amadou & Mariam) and is known for his work in the R&B and Hip-Hop scene. He is currently working on his album, which is due for release some time next year. Abel is fortunate to be profoundly influenced by the strong musical heritage of his father, Tabu Ley Rochereau who along with Franco, The Rumba Giant of Zaire (now Democratic Republic of the Congo), played a pivotal role in the inception of the African Rumba.
The end result is Moina Ya Mokili, a formidable collaboration that confirms their true love and passion for Deep Soulful music. Furthermore, this project is endorsed and enriched with support from Abicah Soul. His remix incorporates scintillating Afro-Latin smooth, yet powerful beats and the signature Abicah Soul touch of deepness.
