These nine tracks tell — with lyrics sung mainly in Guadeloupean Creole — of outsiders and seers, memories and joy; of black history, global unity and the futility of war. Of taking time to rest, feel, love. Of the redemptive power of music — as a conduit, a change maker, a muse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHistory finds Bokanté exploring further, dressing folkloric instruments including the Arabic oud, West African ngoni and North African guembri, the bass lute favoured by Morocco's Gnawa maalems, in western clothes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003eBliss\u003cbr\u003eAdjoni\u003cbr\u003ePa Domi\u003cbr\u003eIlliminé\u003cbr\u003eFlè a Mémwa\u003cbr\u003eTa Voix\u003cbr\u003eTandé\u003cbr\u003eMikrob\u003cbr\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Real World","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42479144173724,"sku":"CDRW244","price":10.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/RW244Bokantei-History.jpg?v=1683062752","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/bokante-history-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
