Kakande takes a unique approach to Mande musicâ€"acoustic, kinetic,
textured and grooving. Dioubate’s virtuosic balafon riffing is
rightly front and center, backed harmonically by a sweet blend of the
best of New York musicians. These players step out occasionally, but
mostly hang with the crisp rhythm section, creating textures that work
as well in both roiling jams and slow, mellifluous praise songs. This
sort of organic arranging sets Kakande’s work apart from
conventional griot pop.
