Tanda-La

Tanda-La Preview

by The Creole Choir of Cuba »

The Creole Choir were founded in 1994 during the 'Special Period' when the Cuban economy fell into a black hole following the end of the USSR and of Soviet support for the revolution. Food was short while homes and work places often went dark due to lack of electricity. It was at this difficult time that members of the Professional Choir of Camagüey who were descendents of Haitians, decided to re-forge the resistance songs and laments of their forebears. Lead by their Choir Director Emilia Díaz Chávez, Grupo Vocal Desandann, as they are called in Cuba, revived the songs of their ancestors for modern times. Desandann literally means 'descendents' and as the choir say: "For us music is like food, it feeds the spirit and is a major inspiration for everyday life".

Road To Damascus

Road To Damascus Preview

by Syriana »

Road to Damascus, with its call-and-response vocals and swelling strings is from Syriana's first EP, Al Bidayeh (The Beginning).

Syriana is where ancient civilisations and Eastern aspirations vie and blend with Cold War iconography and Western stereotypes. Where boundaries are dismantled. From London to Berlin, Istanbbul to Damascus. Where coming together feels effortless, significant and inspired.
