Description:

From the trance beats of South Sudan to the Gnawa of Morocco! This album focuses on the wide variety of beats from all over the African continent! Among the characteristic elements of African music, "beat" is one of the most important, primitive, and powerful. This album explores the diversity and unfathomable appeal of beats that live and breathe in every corner of the vast African continent. The film covers a wide range of colorful rhythmic patterns that have been passed down from generation to generation in Lesotho, South Sudan, Niger, and other regions. The rich harmonies of the beats and melodies of the various traditional folk instruments can be enjoyed. The album features numbers by a total of 15 artists, from the young to the veteran, who are at the forefront of the African music scene, including Zimbabwe's Hope Masike, the "Princess of N'birra," and Moli Kante, a representative artist of Guinea.
