Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu (Galiwin'ku, Elcho Island, Australia, January 22, 1971-Tiwi, Darwin, Northern Territory; July 25, 2017) was an Australian aboriginal musician, who sang in the Yolngu language.

He was born on Galiwin'ku (Elcho Island), off the coast of Arnhem Land, in northern Australia, about 580 kilometers from Darwin. He belonged to the Gumatj clan of the Yolngu and his mother was from the Galpu nation.He was born blind, never learned braille and did not have a guide dog or use a white cane. Yunupingu spoke a few words of English, and he was said to be extremely shy.

He played drums, keyboards, guitar, and didgeridoo, but it was the clarity of his singing voice that had attracted rave reviews. He sang stories of his land in both languages (Galpu, Gumatj or Djambarrpuynu, all Yolŋu Matha) and English. Before Yothu Yindi, he is now with the Saltwater Band.

Tamikrest means "Intersection" in the language of the Kel Tamashek, a nomadic tribe from the north of the Sahara, commonly known as Tuaregs. The project is headed by Ousmane Ag Mossa and Wonou WaletSidati, the latter known for her involvement in Tinariwen. With them they share situations, influences and many of the sounds of the Tuareg culture (as can be seen in their previous works, Adagh, from 2010, and Toumastin, from 2011): like Tinariwen, Tamikrest has to live in exile due to to the political situation of his country, a condition that feeds his music, in a mixture of the traditional sound of the Sahara, rock and blues.

A powerful, impeccable work, with a virtue shared by other groups and artists in the region: that of knowing how to transmit, like no one else, an attitude of struggle against pain through music.

Known as "the Jimi Hendrix of the kora", Seckou Keita is a brilliant advocate of the lesser-known sounds of the kora repertoire of southern Senegal. The innovative twists he introduces into improvisation on this 21-string harp-lute distinguish Keita's sound, an eclecticism that is reflected in his quintet, whose members hail from Senegal, Italy, Egypt and the Gambia.

The Seckou Keita SKQ Quintet is one of the most acclaimed bands on their tours, seducing audiences from Montreal to Manchester, Sweden or Senegal with their captivating music and their wonderful ability to bring their instruments together. Seckou Keita SKQ is comprised of Seckou Keita himself on kora, Davide Mantovani on double bass, Surahata Susso on percussion, the distinctive sound of Samy Bishai on violin, and the charming voice of Binta Susso.

Seckou Keita sets himself apart from other musicians in his inimitably distinctive sounds, becoming one of the most innovative and creative kora players today. All the virtuosity and magic of Keita and his quintet are exhibited on the album The Silimbo Passage (2008). Unclassifiable and charming fresh sound.

Newcomers to the independent scene, the first album of the Tuareg group IMARHAN is produced by Eyadou Ej Leche Tinariwen to whom they have as little protégés.

Between traditional Tuareg music, desert funk, blues and psychedelics from the sun, IMARHAN was one of the revelations of the last Rennes Transmusicales.

Kurt Vile invited them to play on the first part of his European tour, Howe Gelb and Steve Shelley from Sonic Youth are fans.

The evidence that the group breaks the boundaries. Dancing like 70s funk, like deep and dense Americans like Tinariwen, psychedelic like 13th Floor Elevators, IMARHAN will haunt you.

  IMARHAN is the group that will love indie world music, the group that will make the world love rock lovers.

DJ Dolores shows that in Brazil there is an astonishingly rich world beyond samba and bossa nova. The use of elements of popular music from the northeast of Brazil, mixed with electronic music, rock and dub influences, forms the stamp of DJ Dolores, the artistic name of Helder Aragão. His career began in the city of Recife at the end of the eighties. Until then he had been a documentary producer and graphic designer, but in the last four years Dolores has taken a step forward producing his own music from Recife's enormous harmonic and rhythmic legacy.

His style was evident in his first remixes for artists such as Gilberto Gil or Fernanda Porto.

In 1 Real, his last work to date, he combines traditional rhythms such as forró (a mixture of local rhythms that incorporates the European accordion, harmonica and zabumba of African origin), electric guitars, rhythm machines and computer programming . He recovers the music of the Jovem Guarda (Brazilian rock from the 60s) and pieces by musicians from the eighties such as Cadão Volpato, leader of the cult band Fellini. In "Danger Global Warming" he has the collaboration of ex-Stranglers Hugh Cornwell, as well as The Blacksmoke Organization.
