A remarkably successful audio and visual journey that exposes African drumming enthusiasts, to the ancient rhythms brought by slaves to this South American country (Uruguay) during the 18th century. This CD/DVD didactic compilation manages to capture the raw energy of the Candombe sound while allowing us to experience a "step by step" view of the musician´s techniques. Truly a "World Music" collector´s must have.
Thanks for reviewing this album! You should see it show up on the album page in a few days.
If you are familiar with the sounds of Candombe, you have to have this!! Not only you can hear all the different technics but you can actually see them playing in the studio and in the streets of Montevideo (Uruguay). Really amazing what these guys can do with their drums. Great presentation too. Read more...
