Francis Falceto is reviving his "Ethiopiques," the legendary music collection dedicated to Ethio-jazz.
The ethnomusicologist is enriching the monumental series of records, dormant since 2017, with six new installments, including two focusing on two little-known figures, Muluken Melesse and Nersès Nalbandian.
Soon on AMF, 2 new "Ethiopiques" albums...

Admas – Sons of Ethiopia

Sons of Ethiopia is a fascinating piece of the Ethiopian musical puzzle. Emerging from the community of Ethiopian exiles who had been scattered to the winds by the brutality of the Derg – the military dictatorship that had deposed Haile Selassie – the album was the sound of a new generation.
“Lost” album from 1984, re-released […]

"La sua musica jazz leggendaria ha fuso lo stile americano e i ritmi cubani con le scale pentatoniche dell’Africa orientale. Ora, all’età di 82 anni, Mulatu Astatke vuole puntare i riflettori sui musicisti tribali della sua amata Etiopia."
