“Percussions afro-colombiennes, touches chantantes du marimba, guitares ostinato dansent avec les jeux complexes de voix et de polyrythmies ancestrales portant avec ferveur les complaintes et la joie du littoral” (FIP, 2021). Issu de la foisonnante scène musicale sud colombienne contemporaine, Bejuco rapaille les Bambuco et autres Currulao traditionnels et leur donne une nouvelle vie à grands coups d’impulsions Afrobeat, Pop, Dub et Hip-hop, dans un maelstrom vitaminé orchestré par les multiples voix qui se répondent et par le marimba, ce xylophone typique dont la pratique est inscrite au patrimoine culturel immatériel de l’humanité l’UNESCO. Le premier album de Bejuco, Batea, est sorti en 2021 sur l’innovant label Llorna Records. “Ça sonne comme la mer, ça a la force de la vague”, illustrent les membres du groupe.

“Afro-Colombian percussion, lilting marimba keys and ostinato guitars dance with the complex interplay of ancestral voices and polyrhythms, fervently carrying the laments and joy of the coast” (FIP, 2021). A product of the thriving contemporary southern Colombian music scene, Bejuco takes traditional Bambuco and Currulao and breathes new life into them with Afrobeat, Pop, Dub and Hip-hop impulses, in a vitamin-packed maelstrom orchestrated by multiple voices and the marimba, a typical xylophone whose practice is part of UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Bejuco’s debut album, Batea, was released in 2021 on the innovative Llorna Records label. “It sounds like the sea, it has the force of the wave”, illustrate the band members.
