Gwakasonné - Algérie 62 (Guadaloupe, 1984)

Gwakasonné is the ecstatic articulation of Robert Oumaou's artistic and political vision, a unified expression of his interests in American jazz, pre-colonial rhythms, the independence of Guadaloupe, and Creole poetics. Over the course of three albums, all released in the 1980s, Robert has led an ever-evolving cast of musicians, a venerable group of avant-jazz pioneers. Creole protest folk, electronics, ambient atmospheres, music of the African diaspora, Afro-Cuban rhythms, and spiritual jazz blend together in this timeless classic.
