“‘Tchamantch’ stems from a simple inspiration the sound of an old Gretsch guitar and employs a traditional pop rhythm section. The instrumentation is often sparse, contrasting the Gretsch or the classic Silvertone guitar with subtle percussion effects provided by human beat box and hip-hop artist Sly Johnson, or the nagoni, the tiny, sharp-edged West African lute that has always been an integral part of her sound, played alongside the Western classical harp.” Furthermore, there is plenty more on the page. The whole album is excellentay!

h/t goes to two very sensational kiddos, YA and Aline.
