L'équipe de Musiques du monde s'est rendue à la 46ème édition du Festival Musiques Métisses d'Angoulême, un festival précurseur et militant depuis 1976 ! Nous avons monté un home studio à la maison alsacienne, au bord de la Charente. Avec la griotte de Montréal Djely Tapa, Patrick Duval, programmateur du festival, Christian Mousset en 1976, fondateur du festival, l'artiviste brésilien Lucas Santtana, les créoles de Lyon Dowdelin et les funky klezmer américains de Abraham Inc, avec Fred Wesley (trombone JB's, James Brown, George Clinton, Ike & Tina Turner), le clarinettiste klezmer David Krakauer et le pianiste et producteur de hip hop canadien Socalled. #SessionLive et entrevue avec Djely Tapa : Néo-soul • Mali/Canada Notre 1ère invitée est la griotte de Montréal Djely Tapa. «Je pars dans le futur avec l'héritage africain», résumait-elle à TV5 Monde début 2019, en parlant de son album Barokan. Pour cet opus, la griotte de Montréal, à la voix magnifique et puissante, a travaillé avec Caleb Rimtobaye, alias Afrotonix, adepte du mouvement afrofuturiste et sacré meilleur DJ africain en 2018. En résulte une production audacieuse, acclamée par la critique, où les traditions mandingues et le blues du désert ondulent joliment sous une fascinante brise synthétique.   Album Barokan, Disques (Nuit d'Afrique – 2019)   Djely Tapa à lire sur RFI Musique.   Titres interprétés par Djely Tapa au studio RFI_Angoulême - Titre 1 Dya voir vidéo RFI - Titre 2 Départ pour Lune.    Line up Djely Tapa Djely Tapa, chant Assane Seck, guitare Auguste Donald Dogbo, batterie Jonathan Arseneau, basse.     #SessionLive et entrevue avec Lucas Santtana  Après Djely Tapa, puis nous rejoignons l'artiste bahianais dans les jardins du quai Magelis. O céu é velho há muito tempo est le 8ème album de l'artiste brésilien. Le 9ème est attendu en janvier 2023 chez No Format. Pour son huitième album, Lucas Santtana revient à la simplicité guitare-voix, dans l'esprit de ses pairs tropicalistes (Gilberto Gil, Tom Zé ou Caetano Veloso). À une époque où tout le monde crie très fort, où personne ne veut écouter l'autre, il décide de chuchoter aux oreilles des gens. Il cherche les points d'intersection entre l'intime et la situation politique et sociale, très dégradée au Brésil depuis l'élection du président populiste d'extrême droite Jair Bolsonaro. Entouré d'une jeune garde créative (Jaloo, Linn da Quebrada, DUDA BEAT) et de Juçara Marçal (Meta Meta), il propose un album pacifié face aux profonds dérèglements des sociétés et idées rétrogrades. Il livre ainsi un disque libre, aéré, poétique, car « même si les temps sont obscurs, ils passeront, car tout est cyclique. D'où le nom du disque : « le ciel est vieux depuis longtemps ».   Titres interprétés en guitare voix au studio RFI_Angoulême Meu Primeiro Amor voir vidéo RFI. Brasil Patriota #SessionLive Dowdelin, retour à la maison alsacienne, au pas de course. Aucune musique ne peut rester immobile. Mais il est rare qu'elle se dérobe autant à la géographie et à la généalogie qu'avec Dowdelin. Langue créole, beat de la Caraïbe, énergies urbaines, virtuosité éclatante, électro sensuelle. Le groupe oue en un lieu singulier où s'emmêlent les genres et les couleurs, les héritages et les audaces. Album Lamnou Lamnou (Undergog Records – 2022)   Titres interprétés par Dowdelin au studio RFI_Angoulême Mama Wé Lanmou Lanmou voir vidéo RFI.   Line Up Dowdelin David Kiledjian, sax, clavier Gregory Boudras, batterie Olivya Victorin, chant Raphaël Philibert, percu «ka» sax.   Son : Mathias Taylor Vidéo : Dominique Fiant.   Puis je file backstage pour retrouver les 3 Mousquetaires d'Abraham Inc : Fred Wesley, David Krakauer et Socalled, confortablement installés dans la loge du tromboniste. En réunissant trois grands maîtres venus d'horizons différents, Abraham Inc. crée, dans un brassage magique de leurs traditions musicales, un nouveau genre irrésistible. David Krakauer, clarinettiste virtuose à la renommée internationale et l'un des plus grands innovateurs de la musique klezmer, Socalled, artiste sampler génial et renégat du hip-hop et Fred Wesley, architecte légendaire du funk, s'associent ici pour offrir une musique inattendue, inspirante, dansante et envoûtante.   Album Together we stand (Label Bleu – 2019).

"Je suis musicien doté d'un bon sens du rythme et des mélodies. Et ces dons doivent être utilisés pour créer de la musique. Et c'est ce que j'ai fait. Je crée de la musique, qu'elle soit improvisée ou composée. Ce don, je m'attache à le transmettre au plus grand nombre."Fred Wesley, fils de musicien - son père était leader de Big Band - a étudié les musiques classiques avant de s'intéresser au Jazz. Mais c'est résolument avec le funk qu'il s'épanouit aux côtés du Godfather dans un premier temps. Wesley sera le directeur musical de James. A la tête des JB's mais aussi des JB's Horn avec Maceo Parker et Pee Wee Ellis, trio qui fournira le souffle funk à George Clinton et ses formations Funkadelic et Parliament.

He is the leader of the Jon Herington Band and has been the guitarist of choice with the iconic band Steely Dan for both recording and touring since 1999. With the launch of Adult Entertainment, Jon now has five solo releases in his discography. His previous release, Time on My Hands, was nominated for Vintage Guitar Hall of Fame Album of the Year.In recent years Jon expanded into education and is currently offering instruction via TrueFire, the world's most comprehensive library of guitar instruction. The TrueFire Ear IQ series currently has two offerings, “Reactive Improvisation: Develop Big Ears and Powerful Improvisation Skills” and “Soloing Strategies: Creative and Harmonic Approaches for Crafting Solos”. In 2015, Jon released “Arrangements for Guitar”, a collection of 18 songs arranged for solo guitar, presenting the unique “chord melody” style of solo jazz guitar that impressed him as a young player.Jon's love for music surfaced early, and he studied piano, saxophone, and harmony in his grade school years. Just before his high school years, however, he developed a passion for pop music and the electric guitar, and soon was writing songs and performing with his own band near his New Jersey Shore home doing opening slots for local hero Bruce Springsteen, beginning a performing career that has continued ever since. College followed, with extensive musical studies in both classical and jazz composition and theory at Rutgers University, and private jazz guitar study, with the help of a National Endowment for the Arts grant, with the late, great jazz guitarist, Harry Leahey. Next came several years of study with the late Dennis Sandole, the acclaimed music teacher from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania who once taught the late greats James Moody and John Coltrane.Jon's gigging life took a detour for about three years when he moved to Indianapolis, Indiana, home to jazz guitar great Wes Montgomery. There Jon played jazz, with the many accomplished local players and former band-mates of Wes, including Wes's brother Buddy Montgomery, "Killer" Ray Appleton, "Pookie" Johnson, and organist and vocalist Terry Hayden, as well as the many talented young players who were students or residents in Indiana, including Jim Beard, Bob Hurst, Kenny Aronov, Chris Botti, and Shawn Pelton. Jon also began doing extensive session work at the time in several of the local studios and played on dozens of jingles and albums.After a return to the New York area, Jon began the challenging process of establishing a working life in New York. His work included performing with many different bands and for many Broadway shows, session recording, teaching, and an occasional writing or arranging job.Jon's debut release in 1992 titled The Complete Rhyming Dictionary (remastered and retitled as Pulse and Cadence) was an instrumental recording, showcasing eight of his own compositions as well as the brilliant playing of keyboardist Jim Beard, bassist Victor Bailey, drummer Peter Erskine, and percussionist Arto Tuncboyacian.Since late 1999, Jon has been the guitarist of choice with Steely Dan for both recording and touring. Jon has also toured with Donald Fagen, Boz Scaggs, Bette Midler, the Jim Beard group, The Blue Nile, Phoebe Snow, Madeleine Peyroux, Bobby Caldwell, Catherine Russell, Rob Morsberger, saxophonist Bill Evans, the contemporary jazz superband Chroma, Lucy Kaplansky, jazz/blues organ great Jack McDuff, and The Dukes of September (a supergroup featuring Donald Fagen, Boz Scaggs, and Michael McDonald).Some of Jon's recording highlights (aside from Adult Entertainment, Time On My Hands, shine (shine shine), Like So, and Pulse and Cadence) are the Walter Becker release Circus Money, the most recent Donald Fagen release Sunken Condos, as well as his prior release Morph the Cat, the Steely Dan albums Two Against Nature (Grammy Award Winner) and Everything Must Go, Jim Beard's five recordings (the first four co-produced by Jon), two Bill Evans records, Escape and Starfish and the Moon, Michael "Patches" Stewart's Penetration, Bob Berg's Riddles and Virtual Reality, Lucy Kaplansky's 10 Year Night, Michael Brecker's Now You See It...(Now You Don't), Randy Brecker's Toe to Toe, Victor Bailey's Bottoms Up, Chroma's Music on the Edge (with Mike Stern and others), Rob Morsberger's The End of Physics, Relativity [Blues], A Periodic Rush of Waves, The Chronicle of a Literal Man, Ghosts Before Breakfast, A Part of You, and the DVD Rob Morsberger Live, and Lynne Robyn's Red Bird in Snow, one of Jon's production efforts. Jon can also be seen on Steely Dan's live Two Against Nature DVD, the Making of Aja DVD from the “Classic Albums” series and the Dukes of September Live at Lincoln Center DVD. Jon's current work remains a combination of free-lancing as a guitarist and producer in New York, song-writing and band-leading work with his own group, and world-wide touring in support of some of the world's most renowned musical artists.

A decade after their acclaimed album Tweet Tweet, Abraham Inc. return with Together We Stand, using their eclectic mix of klezmer, funk and hip hop to show that different religions, ages, sexes and races get along. David Krakauer, Fred Wesley and Socalled talk to RFI about how the U.S. president’s “Muslim” ban got them back in the studio making great music.   “The band is kind of crazy mix of just about anybody you can imagine,” says Socalled, a Canadian beatmaker who’s been working with Krakauer on reinventing klezmer for over a decade.  “Men, women, black, white, brown, Latino, Africans … we have basically Jewish culture and Yiddish culture meeting African American culture. And on the song Together We Stand we invited an Arabic percussionist Mohammed Raky, so there’s Arabic percussion.” The title track was written by Fred Wesley, master funk trombonist and James Brown's former musical director. "Together WE stand is also the peoples of the world," Wesley says, “all races and all nationalities and all religions of the world standing together in the name of peace. "If we all could stand together, could listen to each other we would find out we have more in common than we have differences.” “I’m a black man and you’re a white farmer, let me just tell you what I go through and you tell me what you go through.. and it’ll be the same thing you know,” he continues, in reference to some of the hate speech that's come out of the woodwork since Trump's election in 2016. Lullaby for Charlottesville Socalled wrote the song Lullaby for Charlottesville in tribute to Heather Hever, killed at a white supremacist rally in 2017.  “It’s an ode to the memory of Heather Hayer, the young woman who was murdered by someone from the white supremacist movement that Donald Trump said “there’s good people on both sides”.  It sort of paints a story in music of voices coming together to pay homage to that tragic moment in American history.”  The Hippies were right, weren't they?  Krakauer wrote the song The Hippies Were Right. Though he was only a teenager at the time of Woodstock, he “marched against the war in Vietnam" and hung out in East Village, an old Jewish quarter of NY popular with hippies. He was inspired by the fact they believed they could change things. “They were protesting the Vietnam war, they were talking about defending the environment, about love among people and I thought this makes sense. "Politically they didn’t have muscle or power. It was sad that the actual pure message of the hippies, about living life, embracing life, got perverted and smashed and commodified.” Trying to convince through music “What Trump did was take the sheet off of people that were kind of racist  and people that were anti-Semitic, anti-peace, people that were pro-corporate America,” says Wesley. "Trump exposed all of these people because they all came out of the closet. And these are the people we have to convince.” While there's a fair amount of political commentary on the album, the band aims to convince by example not by preaching or banging the table. The instrumental track B Flat à la Socalled is a fine example of the way they find harmony in their very different musical cultures. “This album is pretty polemical and a bit of a pulpit cry, but hopefully it’s also musically an example,” Socalled says. “If you see on stage a bunch of people, different religions, ages, sexes, just loving each other and creating beauty that brings people together, that’s the mission of Abraham Incorporated.” Follow Abraham Incorporated on facebook Together we stand is out on Autre Distribution Abraham Inc. official website
