Born in Bangui, Centrafrique, Bibi Tanga is attracted to groove in all its shapes. Curtis Mayfield, James Brown, Sly Stone and also Fela, the TPOK Jazz of Franco in Kinshasa, the National Guinean Bembeya Jazz remain his references.  With a powerful band, the Selenites (the moon inhabitants), he performs the material of his new album, 'Dunya'.

Such is the abundance of unique flora and fauna to be found on Madagascar, that ecologists have referred to the sizeable Indian Ocean island as the 'eight continent'. Born and raised in Madagascar until the age of eleven, NY-based Razia Said rediscovered her island a few years ago and recorded the album ‘Zebu nation’ to raise awareness about the plight of her country’s beautiful nature. Running through her sound and original songs is a spirit that honours her Malagasy heritage.
