【Anti】2014 来自非洲的世界级乐队Tinariwen新专辑 - Emmaar  【HD FLAC24-96】

Tinariwen来自马里共和国，这个沙漠小国，却诞生了Oumou Sangare、Ali Farka Toure、Salif Keita、Afel Bocoum等等许多闻名世界的音乐家。 Tinariwen在Tamashek 语中意指沙漠男子。他们的音乐兼具中东和非洲风格。所有音乐家都来自南撒哈拉，乐队的名字是“空旷之地”，其独特的沙漠蓝调风格给人留下深刻印象。 Tinariwen，来自于生活在南部撒哈拉的Touareg（图阿雷格）游牧民族，乐队以电吉他为主，非洲传统乐器为辅，融合蓝调、民谣、民族等元素，伴以部落传统的合唱人声。这支乐队在探索世界融合风格的同时，也在维护着部落千年文化与传统。 Tinariwen的电吉他音色清澈，悠远，带一点迷幻，轻松舒缓的节奏，配合乐队极具根源性的方言合唱，尽管不懂他们唱什么，但眼前却不禁浮现出清冷的月光下连绵的沙漠景色，徒步旅行者围坐在篝火旁边弹边唱，一种乡愁的感觉，让人久久回味... 

Tinariwen参与过南非世界杯，获得第54界格莱美最佳世界音乐专辑大奖，创立了The Festival in the Desert音乐节。

Tinariwen, pronounced tinariwen "deserts", plural of t閚閞?"desert" is a Grammy Award-winning group of Tuareg musicians from the Sahara Desert region of northern Mali. The band was formed in 1979 in Tamanrasset, Algeria, but returned to Mali after a cease-fire in the 1990s. The group first started to gain a following outside the Sahara region in 2001 with the release of The Radio Tisdas Sessions, and with performances at Festival au D閟ert in Mali and the Roskilde festival in Denmark. Their popularity rose internationally with the release of the critically acclaimed Aman Iman in 2007. NPR calls the group "music's true rebels," AllMusic deems the group's music "a grassroots voice of rebellion," and Slate calls the group "rock 'n' roll rebels whose rebellion, for once, wasn't just metaphorical."

Challenging circumstances are nothing new to the Kel Tamashek (Tuareg) band Tinariwen. After all, most of their members had been Libyan military-trained rebel fighters engaged in active revolt against the Malian government before the Tamanrasset Accords in 1991. Beginning in 2012, real danger is ever present in northern Mali -- due to the incursion of Islamist militias -- for the Tuareg people and to musicians in particular. So much so, many, including Tinariwen, have fled the country. One of their members, Abdallah Ag Lamida, was even kidnapped, though he has since been released. Tinariwen was forced to exchange one desert -- the Sahara -- for another in Joshua Tree National Park in the United States in order to record Emmaar (without Ag Lamida, who was freed after recording began). Once more produced by Patrick Votan, the sound here retains its "desert blues" heart but is also more expansive -- there's no need for alarm, really. The traditional interlocking guitar interplay involves more drones as lead lines snake underneath them, and there is more reverb in this mix. All of the material was written by leader Ibrahim Ag Alhabib or his bandmembers. Exile, anger, and displacement populate the songs on Emmaar. Multi-instrumentalist Fats Kaplin adds his spiraling fiddle to "Imdiwanin Ahi Tifhamamone" and pedal steel to the militant opener "Toumast Tincha" (that also features guitar from Josh Klinghoffer and a spoken intro by Saul Williams), and the atmospheric dirge "Sendad Eghlalan." Percussionist Amar Chaoui helps out on the stinging "Chaghaybou" and five other tracks, adding a sense of more dynamic urgency to balance the more drone-centric approach. "Emajer," with guest guitarist Matt Sweeney, is a different tack for Tinariwen. Its vibe is more American Southwest (which isn't so strange since this is a nomadic band after all). But Ag Alhabib's lyric and melody are pure African folk song, reflecting loss and longing, as the rolling percussion, voices, and guitars wind around one in multiple melodies underscoring the emotion. The interwoven acoustic guitars on closer "Aghregh Medin (Hassan's Song)" offer a staggered minor-key blues. They highlight the disillusionment in the lyric "... I no longer believe in unity/I will only believe in it again if/Those opinions serve a common ideal/That of the people from which they emanate." The different textures and timbres at work on Emmaar reveal Tinariwen's evolution; one derived from the need to grow musically, as well as respond to adversity with creativity.
