"Tramontane" is Pédro Kouyaté’s latest album, featuring ten solo tracks that evoke memories of his childhood in Mali, his life in exile, and reflections on today's world. The album is marked by Kouyaté’s experimental approach with the N'Goni, the traditional Mandingo instrument, delivering hypnotic, pentatonic sounds. His electro-acoustic guitar work showcases a fast, bluesy arpeggio style that weaves between melodic and rhythmic expressions. His deep voice masterfully interacts with beats and silences, reminiscent of a griot captivating an audience. Like the south wind it’s named after, "Tramontane" shakes certainties and invites introspection.
