KABOP

“KABOP” is flushed with the influences of “GWO KA”, a traditional music from Guadeloupe conveyed by percussionist Marcel Lolia, mixed with Bebop influences inspired by Miles Davis.

* musique traditionnelle
de la Guadeloupe

     

In 1987, within the four walls of a township house in Guadeloupe, six hands come together to invent, try and compose a musical genre without borders. Within these metal walls, in the pit of the ‘Butterfly Island’; Mike Clinton (bass), Jean-Luc Arstand (guitar) and Gabriel Clinton (vocals and guitar) explore the subconscious poetry of the incredible richness of the “Creole” culture.

Five years later, the music born from these joint hands crosses the Atlantic to find itself on the shores of another continent which also come with a plurality of identities and cultures: the Seine Saint Denis, also called “the World Island ” where sharing is essential. The three composers surround themselves with a host of well-known musicians and give birth to a concept they called “KABOP”.

The album delivers a message of universality and invites the listener, initiated or not, to penetrate this poetic and musical fusion…
