Nahwia leading the Yelli
Filmed at Sakwé, 10km from Cameroon-Congo border in February 2008.
Indigenous to the Cameroon rainforest, the Baka are hunter-gatherers. Music & dance are central to their traditional beliefs and lives. To be Baka is to be a musician.
The Baka Women sing "yelli" at night to enchant the forest and ensure a successful hunt. Learn more about this in Episode 3 of the podcast "Baka Music & the Technology of Enchantment" at czcams.com/video/WnFJ36P0G9Q/video.html

A video I made as part of my performance module for my MA at SOAS, London. Since it was during lockdown it had to be video'd rather than a live performance. Big thanks to Mohamed Errebba for his patience in teaching me the basics of the guembri. To see the guembri played properly check out his channel at @MOHAMEDERREBBAA

Most of the literature on Baka music concentrates on their “spirit dances”. What is actually meant by “spirit” is rarely, if ever, mentioned in the literature. In English the language for such things as “spirit” and “enchantment” have been heavily influenced by 1000 years of Christianity and given negative connotations, so the true meanings of words get lost in translation.There seems to be an ...

❤❤❤❤❤❤. In a world filled with AI. One of the last truly pure moments.
Every thing got stolen from us by the westerners(Europeans slave power) in Berlin Conference,( colonization,) but the divine power of our ancestors still is inspiring us. God is great. I hope to reach them one blessed day.
well we're not stealing it. Anything we earn from this video will go to Nahwia and her friends. It's not about race. The Africans that live next to them steal everything they can from them. When you reach them you'll see.
Meta will be great again
Voici nos parents , mercon de tous les ministres des eaux et forêts. Aucune machine ne dois rentrer ds nos forêts et la détruire. Les Européens protègent leur patrimoine .

Brilliant music immediately get a feeling of happiness the music is infectious
Can anyone tell us what is the time signature of that song?!?
Its got nine beats x - x - x x - x - (where "x" is a beat and "-" is silent) so 9/8. The bass drum pulse is x - - x - - x - - (3 triplets)
Nearly all their traditional music is terniary with either 3 or 4 sets of triplets, sometimes both at the same time! Check out this video to further understand the rhythms czcams.com/video/nRuQf9bZk90/video.html And for more background: czcams.com/video/zb0z0yOdY5E/video.html
Nicely explained, thank!
@@bakabeyond The interplay of rhythms is wonderful, and as a novice in this style, I am just starting to understand the percussion and bass rhythms, thanks to help from your annotation of the timeline and pulse here. However, the rhythm guitar seems to be on a whole different (amazing) plane - what is his rhythm, and does it follow the timeline in some way, or crosses it (and the measure/period as well)?
@@MetaEuphony The guitar that starts the piece is alternating thumb (p) and index fimger (i) in the rhythm (for each chord) p - i - p i - p i (9 beats). Chords are G D C D. Second guitar (using a pick) comes in with rhythm x - x - x x - x - |x - x - x x - x - |x - x - x x - x - |x - x - x x - x - then sometimes puts extra notes into that rhythm, or misses notes, but basicly the same rhythm. Hope that helps
Voici notre identité et j en suis très fier . Bcp de nos hommes politiciens ils n ont rien compris . En ce temps , l'union, fouler aux pieds l argent et les opportunités s étaient pas nos problèmes Vous avez gatez nos civilisations. Tout parent africain a vécu en savane comme en forêt l argent , l argent ok
Vous faites honte à l Afrique. Moi voici mon origine . Tous vrai africain à connu le passage de nos parents . Ils ne voulaient pas d argent mais vivre tranquille
Si Dieu te donne un peu ça suffit sinon tu vas faire les affaires pour poursuivre l argent.
Mais qui d entre eux peuvent vivre au campement ? Jamais de la vie . .les blancs sont venu chasser, hommes comme gibier . Vous tous , c est le pouvoir ou rien
