Jazz
Barney Wilen (born 1937) was a French tenor, soprano saxophonist and jazz composer. Originally released in 1972, the Moshi LP is where Wilen assembled a team of filmmakers, technicians and musicians to travel to Africa and recorded the music of native pygmy tribes. Upon returning to Paris two years later, completed the album: a dark, eccentric effort fusing avantjazz sensibilities with African rhythms, ambient sound effects and melodies rooted in American blues traditions. Cut with French and African players including guitarist Pierre Chaze, Michel Graillier and Didier Leon, the label stated best themselves that 'this is music with few precedents or followers, spanning from extraterrestrial dissonance to earthbound, street legal funk. This deluxe reissue features additional artwork plus high definition remastered audio.
