On the eponymous 'Leon Keita', we hear Malian music fused with sensibilities from Sudan-Guinea and Burkina Faso, with modern pop and electronic influences, impeccably played in a smattering of crisp guitars, love-sung lyrics and laboured rhythms. All laid to a fresh pressing, the A-side hears three rather relaxed beauties, while the B moves into more idealistic and hedonic directions, not least the conclusive 'Dakan Sate, Korotoumi'. Brought back to our attention by Analog Africa, 'Leon Keita' serves yet another top serving and reminder of Mandingue culture, the influence of which stretches across the world; 'Dalaka' was a recent hit, making it as far as the Colombian coast.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist\u003cbr\u003eSide 1\u003cbr\u003e1. \"Diarabi Mana\" (7:14)\u003cbr\u003e2. \"Ifarana\" (6:36)\u003cbr\u003e3. \"Dalaka\" (7:57)\u003cbr\u003eSide 2\u003cbr\u003e1. \"Gnanassouma\" (8:34)\u003cbr\u003e2. \"Dakan Sate, Korotoumi\" (9:18)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Analog Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42715541635228,"sku":"AADE016","price":33.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/1_49a6b872-4625-4b7d-8bf6-f4fea391399b.jpg?v=1696514557","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/leon-keita-leon-keita","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
