TARANTA NERA is a wonderful spicy mix between TARANTA MUSIC from southern Italy and AFRICA's deepest soul (rhythms, melodies & moods from MALI).
Just put together some of the most important musicians on the whole World Music scene: a bunch of TARANTA MUSIC crusaders, the Italian group "Officina Zoe", than add giants like Baba Sissoko and Mamani Keita (the very soul of Mali) and then eventually add Sourakhata Dioubate from Guinea with its frentic rhythms... too much explosive even for you?
It's "TARANTA NERA" ("BLACK TARANTA"), the most incredible "made in Italy" contamination since ever, a sonic place where the Souths of World find a balance to create the new sound of the future.
