Look after afro jazz fusion album by guinean Keyboardist/singer Aminata Fall backed by the group Nao. We have several stand out tracks on Lp like Spanish Date a moody "dark jazz" instrumental, the spacy afro funk Nâo with funky drums, piano, horns section, violin and the superb voices of Aminata who sings in Bambara language not far from Ethio jazz, "Xamis" is a unusual afro jazz tune amazing 6/8 drums. While "Chant du Désert" is a fantastic cinematic tune.

Pretty unknown afro jazz fusion album by african Keyboardist/singer Aminata Fall. “Spanish Date” that sounds like an italian library track with very moody atmosphere. Great drums to sample too. But the standout track on this album is the deep afro funk “Nâo” with funky drums, piano, nice horns section, violin and the spacy voices of Aminata, and It somewhere reminds me some Ethio Jazz tracks. Hard to find ……~

Contemporary afro jazz fusion recording by female singer & pianist named Aminata Fall from Senegal. She’s backed by international jazz combo called “Xalis” formed by Big studio musicians & jazzmen, in first Patrick Artero (trump), Finn Martin (sax), Raymond Dumbe (bass), Brice Massy (drums) & Maxidilick-Adioa (perc) from Cameroon. The music sound deep jazz feat hard thumping drums and flying keyboard solo, but also funky on tune called “Nao”. Focus on deep afro dub tune called “Spanish date” will enjoy reggae music lovers. More african are the tunes “Aminata, Tam tam touba” in afro soukouss way. ………~
