Two years ago I visited West Africa and fell in love with the kora. This is the first piece I wrote for this instrument.

Memories from Kembujeh

In the ancient Sumerian myth of Inanna, before she can descend into the Underworld, Inanna is asked to leave everything at the gate.
Her crown. Her robes. Her name.
Only once she is naked and bare can she go any further.

For many years I have been living inside the myth of Inanna and feeling the implications it has on our world. Inanna is the embodiment of a woman who chooses to leave the luxuries of the upper world in order to find something in the depths that was lost - her exiled sister Ereshkigal.
It is only here, faced with all the exiled parts of herself, that she dies and can be reborn.

We are collectively, I believe, in another moment of descent. But we resist the change. We don’t want to give up our robes, our old identities. We want to stay safe. To stay clothed.

But underneath all that, the underworld beckons. It asks us to surrender. To be naked and exposed. To descend into the body, and find all that was hidden beneath the surface.
And from here the true rising can begin.

For the past year, @jaspertrim and I have been deep in the belly of the underworld creating a mythic musical journey of descent. We have traversed the inner world and risen, over and over again to meet the demands and voice of this work.

And soon it will be coming your way.

For now, here is a little taste.

Welcome to the world ‘Monayeh’ - @alalakemusic

I have been so lucky to have been building this musical world with @mafuconteh.koramaster and @musafilly_official for the last 3 years.

It’s now finally time to share it with you.

This first single is a call to peace and unity in trying times, it speaks of conflict and overcoming differences.

Thank you @joshdoughtykora for letting us use his precious song ‘Nain’ to be the seed for this.

Thank you @gabrielaevasounds for blessing us with your beautiful vocals.

Thank you @panorama_mastering for mastering this record for us.

Thank you the people of Gambia for welcoming me so open heartedly.

Day 14

‘You come and go. The doors swing closed
ever more gently, almost without a shudder.
Of all who move through the quiet houses,
you are the quietest.

We become so accustomed to you,
we no longer look up
when your shadow falls over the book we are reading
and makes it glow. For all things
sing you: at times
we just hear them more clearly.’

- Rilke
