Festival International Nuits d’Afrique : Zar Electrik

Wed 17 Jul 2024 • 08:00 pm Electro / Gnawa / Kora
Scène TD – Radio-Canada - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

«Au cœur de la musique de Zar Electrik, c’est la danse qui est reine, vécue comme un rite transcendantal et libérateur» (Nova, 2023). Totalement décomplexés, voire gentiment frondeurs, les trois Marseillais de Zar Electrik mixent le oud et le guembri à la kora et aux synthés, allant chercher dans chacun de ces instruments ce qu’ils peuvent avoir d’hypnotique. Géographiquement déstabilisants et musicalement cosmopolites, les rythmes de ce groupe, qui rallie Gnawa, sonorités subsahariennes et électros, emmènent dans un nulle part qui est partout et font tout simplement du bien. Hawa, leur 1e EP sorti en 2023, invite au partage et à la fête.

“At the heart of Zar Electrik’s music is dance, experienced as a transcendental and liberating rite” (Nova, 2023). Totally uninhibited, even gently rebellious, the three Marseilles-based members of Zar Electrik mix oud and guembri with kora and synthesizers, seeking out the hypnotic potential of each of these instruments. Geographically destabilizing and musically cosmopolitan, the group’s rhythms, which combine Gnawa, sub-Saharan and electro sounds, take us to a nowhere that is everywhere, and simply feel good. Hawa, their 1st EP released in 2023, invites us to share and celebrate.

CET ÉVÈNEMENT EST GRATUIT!
