from Saját gyűjtés / Own Collection Work 2015
We, Hungarians, with the appearance of the first audio recording devices have always been at the forefront in folk music collection; collecting our folk music traditions. In order to find our way in this music, it is essential that we get acquainted with it in contemporary peasant communities.  Folk music played in the village arrives in a city environment on recordings from collection work; it creates its own survival and awakens new musical thoughts. This is the kind of music on this recording. We share memories of rural cultures, from our own collecting work - expressed in our own style.

Estusha, Mexican artist fuses her peculiar form of singing with ethnic instruments of the world and electronic music to create an ethno-electro project.

Kandia Kouyaté (also known as Kandja Kouyaté, born in 1959 in Kita, Mali) is a Malian jelimuso (a female griot) and kora player; she has earned the prestigious title of ngara, and is sometimes called La dangereuse and La grande vedette malienne. Kouyaté's dense, emotional, hypnotic manner of singing and her lyrical talents have earned huge acclaim in Mali, though she remained relatively little known outside Africa, due to extremely limited availability of her recordings. Her home town of Kita is known for love songs, which form a large part of Kouyaté's repertoire. She also sings praise songs.

from Renascence 2015
...Renascence certainly rewards the long wait; it is a terrific record on all counts. The first thing longtime fans will notice is that Kouyaté's contralto has become deeper and even more powerful than when she became famous in Africa three decades ago. Kouyaté was born in 1959 in southwestern Mali. She grew up immersed in the music of her Mandé people. Her father, a well-known balafon player, saw his daughter's potential when she was a child; her mother was a singer. When she was still a schoolgirl she sang with her uncle Mady Sylla Kouyaté's band, the Apollos, in Bamako. Captivated by the Malian capital's music scene, she moved there after completing school. In Bamako, she married a prominent singer of jeliya, a traditional Mandé genre. Kouyaté studied jeliya vocal techniques and its repertoire of praise songs and historical narratives...
