Radicants
The meeting of an ancient and ancestral instrument like the kora, in the hands of a virtuoso like Ballaké Sissoko, and electronics that expand the possibilities of the instrument itself, as proposed by Lorenzo Bianchi Hoesch, is at the heart of Radicants. It's a search for new paths that have to do with immersion, abandonment and new roots. Roots that are dynamic, that evolve and that are able to support the other. Respecting the idea of rootedness and projecting it into a kaleidoscopic, multifaceted world. So there's no opposition between two worlds - acoustic and electronic, traditional and contemporary, African and Western - but rather acceptance, collaboration and risk-taking. The goal is to create a true dialog between the two musicians, in which the kora is the source of everything, but the electronics are the evolution, the resonance and the form.

🩷 Open My Records To Avoid Seam Splitting
In order to ship your records to you in the safest way possible, and to avoid seam splits, we recommend removing the record from the jacket when shipping. That said, we will never open sealed records and do this without your permission. If you would like your records shipped to you this way, please add Open My Records to your cart.
We will place your jacket and record inside a FREE protective poly with all shrink and hype stickers intact.
