Festival International Nuits d’Afrique : Ibibio Sound Machine

Thu 18 Jul 2024 • 09:00 pm Afrobeat / Funk / Highlife
Théâtre Fairmount - Montréal 30$
· by Jacob Langlois-Pelletier

La musique d’Ibibio Sound Machine « traverse les genres et dépasse les frontières musicales » (The Guardian, 2022). Diva aux multiples visages, Eno Williams régente de sa voix puissante, tantôt sauvage, tantôt sensuelle, tantôt plus formelle, ce groupe euphorisant aux sons bien touffus, pleins de surprise et hyperélastiques. Tension entre Funk ouest-africain agitée de Highlife et d’Afrobeat, post-Punk tendance New Wave et électro tout droit sorti des clubs branchés des grandes capitales, les rythmes d’Ibibio Sound Machine émergent de l’émulation entre des percussions impulsives, des cuivres étourdissants et des synthés analogiques issus d’un autre temps. Ibibio Sound Machine présente son album tout frais, « Pull The Rope ».

Ibibio Sound Machine’s music “crosses genres and musical boundaries” (The Guardian, 2022). A diva with many faces, Eno Williams’ powerful voice – at times wild, at times sensual, at times more formal – governs this euphoric group, whose sounds are full of surprises and hyper-elasticity. Tension between West African funk, highlife and Afrobeat, post-punk with a New Wave edge and electro straight out of the trendy clubs of the big capitals, Ibibio Sound Machine’s rhythms emerge from the emulation between impulsive percussion, dizzying brass and analog synths from another time. Ibibio Sound Machine presents its brand-new album, “Pull The Rope”.
