MANDINGO POWER by DOM PETER & THE BAMAKO ALL STARS
This is a humble collection,
A compilation of our works in music for documentaries movie..
Since 2016, following the Midnight Ravers adventure, I have had the privilege of being approached to create original music for documentaries. The first of many incredible projects, all connected to West Africa, and the chance to reunite with my dear friends : Madou Sidiki Diabaté, Assaba Dramé, Samba Diabaté, Cheick Diallo !
whom I warmly thank here for their trust and unparalleled talent.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with : Cindy Pooch, my bro Aymeric krol, and Mamoutou Diabaté
The films in question, which you may have seen—or can find on various platforms such as YouTube, Tenk, etc.—include : Zinder. L’arbre sans fruit, Exils Adolescents, Les Scarifiés, le cimetière de la Pellicule, Mali une guerre perdue and many unreleased tracks.
I extend heartfelt thanks to all the production and artistic teams... wonderful memories 🙏 A thousand thanks! I Know they Know ;)
This is by no means a Midnight Ravers album, as it would sorely miss Fatim and Manu, as well as the supervision of my cousin Manjul. But doesn’t it spark some ideas? 😉
