Pressed on 140-gram \u003cb\u003eBlack Vinyl\u003c\/b\u003e, this  LP captures a musical dialogue first sparked during sessions  for \u003cb\u003eOumou Sangaré\u003c\/b\u003e's landmark album \u003ci\u003eSeya\u003c\/i\u003e,  produced by \u003cb\u003eNick Gold\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eMamadou  Haïdara\u003c\/b\u003e. Though their home cultures lie geographically  close, the balafon traditions of Kenedougou and the  hunter-centred donso n'goni music of Wassoulou rarely  intersect. What began as informal exchanges between Solo  and Diakité during warm-ups evolved into a fully realised  session built around traditional songs known across Mali. Solo  performs on a customised balafon with an extended bass  register, while Diakité brings the depth of his lowest-tuned  donso n'goni. Initially conceived as a purely instrumental  project, the recordings expanded organically: subtle vocal  and percussion arrangements were added, followed by  understated contributions from English musician Sonny Johns  on strings, mellotron, guitar, and bass. Parts were recorded  across different countries, each layer inspiring the next,  resulting in an album that feels both spontaneous and  carefully shaped. Long respected within Mali as musicians'  musicians, Solo and Diakité now step onto an international  stage alongside artists such as Salif Keita, Ali Farka Touré,  Toumani Diabaté, Tinariwen, Songhoy Blues, Amadou and  Mariam, Rokia Traoré and Fatoumata Diawara-artists who  have previously found global audiences through World Circuit  and Nonesuch.
