Ajate - Alo

• by Phil Plencner

Today’s pick is a fascinating album of cultural fusion called Alo by Japanse band Ajate.

Ajate blends African dance music with traditional Japanese music (“Ohayashi”). They are a large scale band (10 members) who’s percussionists use hand-made bamboo instruments as well as traditional Japanese percussion.

Way cool!
