- Recording latest album in the rainforest near Cameroon/Congo border. baka.gbine.com/album/kopolo-2
Mastered mix from the new album.
The Baka musicians from Gbiné have come a long way since the release of their last album Gati Bongo. Whereas none of them had ever performed outside their forest home before Gati Bongo was recorded, since it's release they have toured in UK, Belgium and Holland as well as around Cameroon and Congo. They have formed a tight rhythm section which melds with their polyphonic vocal harmonies to create their own unique style as can be heard on the new recording.
Although there is now keen competition at Gbiné to play in the band, the rhythm section has become a fixed line-up of Sangowé Elvis on drum kit, Ndia Arbitre on percussion, Barma Jean-Marie on bass and Ndeké Norbert on rhythm guitar. Pelembir Dieudonné is still the most prolific of the song-writers and dynamic of the performers, but others are treading on his heels including his son Freddie (who can be seen singing on the video of "Ewoundo". Mbeh Prosper again provides most of the lead guitar with a bit of help here and there from Baka Beyond's Martin Cradick, who also recorded it all on location deep in the rainforest near the Cameroon-Congo border and mixed and produced it at The Vortex in UK.
Although Baka Gbiné have been developing their performance of traditional music and dance, this album is another collection of contemporary guitar based songs guaranteed to get your body moving and your spirits rising. Gati Bongo has been in the iTunes World charts since its release back in 2006. It's sales have helped finance projects set up with the Baka at Gbiné and Global Music Exchange (www.1heart.org) which have really made a difference to the lives and social standing of the Baka. Every time Martin returns to Cameroon to continue work with the Baka he is asked when the next album will be ready. Well here's one track from it!

I enjoyed it here in Texas
Hi there, dear people over there, no matter - if we / you are in Africa, in Texas, California or in Europe - we enjoy these African sounds anyway. They take us much closer to the joy of life and to happiness ... ;-) ;-) ;-)
You right💯
Ima gati is a most beautiful song in the world
This song, the performers and the people watching all exude LOVE! This is better than what the doctor ordered me.
I’ve traced my Roots back to these people 🇨🇲
Your music, dancing, and togetherness has cheered me up. Thankyou.... a definiteThumbs Up from me,
Dieu est bon wahou les merveilles de sa création respectez les créatures de Dieu
Their music is so addictive I listen over and over again. A real gentle loving people.
That was so amazing... they flowed with the music. So natural.. they so free from the BS lives we live. I became aware that i was very jealous of them
Baka, Baka dziękuję! Wasza muzyka uzdrawia. Wasze rytmy, głosy i uśmiechy są uzdrawiające! Zazdroszczę Wam życia takiego jak na videoklipie. Jesteście wśród Natury i macie bliski kontakt z Bogiem wśród jego zieleni, jego ptaków i innych wolnych stworzeń na tym globie ziemskim. Obecnie dla mnie to bardzo trudny i ciężki czas... bo wiadomo zaraza epidemiczna covid i inne cywilizacyjne w Europie zmartwienia. Jeszcze raz dziękuję za Waszą muzykę, Baka- Baka!
Życie jest ciężkie, ale wykorzystujemy je najlepiej
@@bakabeyond Macie słuszność Baka, przede wszystkim troska o dzieci i swoje kobiety. A zauważyłem, że swoje dzieci uczycie lepiej rytmu i muzyki od tych dzieci w szkołach czy przedszkolach z wielkich miast. Pomimo Waszego niedostatku w wodę i pożywienie Wasze dzieci mają piękniejszy uśmiech od tych dzieci z miast. Gdzie są sklepy, telewizja, komputery i telefony. Podziwiam Was ludu Baka! Wiara oraz miłość w lepsze jutro i przyszłość bo nadzieja w Was jest, nadzieję macie ludu Baka większą od chrześcijan!
@@grzegorzc2163man they are living in the rainforest, so no problem of water, they find their food in the forest, so they’re not hungry, stop associating Africa with those kinds of problem everyday, they eat healthier than you, all natural
Wonderful people :poverty is one thing, but natural happiness is another thing, which money can not buy. I am happy for you
I love this so much.
So wonderful... THIS is what music is all about. I hope you folks are doing ok and thriving. I have only just discovered this but I will follow and support you.
Who else is here in 2022? Enjoying this in the office whole day
From west africa, i;m so crazy with thisa a dance, music, , they are wonderful . i love them all. keep listen over and over.....i wish i can discover them.
The solution of percussing the roots of trees is impressive!
Beautiful, how these people can do so much with very little. God Bless you all and thank you all for such a great music.

Thanks for the kind comment. It means a lot!
Now I know where Paul Simon found much of his sound. Wow amazing.
I don't think he got anywhere near here, but his guitarist on Draceland was from Cameroon
Much love to your music Um from South Africa...
Proud to be Baka 🇨🇲
DANCING TREES!! lol That made my day. I really did enjoy this piece though.

Fantastic. Just bought the album after seeing this.
I am in a trance, don’t want to leave
J'aime mon Afrique et sa culture.
Ça c'est du bon et pur son made in bantouland
Africa is rich in talents. slaves for hundred years, colonized for many decades, westerners shared our continent against our wills, still our culture is alive.
slaves? get lost. majority of african were never slaves
I keep coming back to this... a heartfelt display of natural rhythm in the simplest, yet the most profound combination of culture, community, and forest. Bless Baka Gbine!
Maravilha a essência, o ritmo,a vida ! Simplesmente!! Gente lindaaa!!
Wat en goed muzik aai boi
Very powerful music!!
This is beautiful. I love your music and I buy it on CZcams. You inspire me to dance, sing, move, rejoice and love. Thank you.
Very, very beau clip, mon pays est bilingue
So beautiful. Been playing and replaying this track
So many great characters in this video...I feel that if I was suddenly plonked into this 'tribe' of people I would make some great friends...all I see are faces that I would trust implicitly....love to the Baka from the UK..
So many good friends indeed! And so many faces in this video of friends who have passed away. :-(
@@bakabeyond Sorry to hear that. These people certainly don't look old...but I guess life is tough in the rainforest. No wonder they are so full of life! Enjoy life to the full!! There is no pension for the Baka. What a wonderful people they are though....huge love from Dorset!
Why is all African music (and all traditional music for that matter) so damn good? Its better than most music, modern AND old. Beethoven holds nothing to traditional music.
La joie de vivre de ce vaillant peuple est impressionnante. Je kiffe fort ce peuple depuis 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮
Très très beau
Falling in love with the Baka again...2020
still love this music!!
Oh! What a rythm
The best music.
Love this!
This is so awesome!....My eyes are stinging with tears.
CERTAINEMENT ILS S EN DONNENT À COEUR JOIE.
great groovy music! love it!
green therapy from the source!
Love it! Saw Baka Beyond a few years ago in Bath. We played music from The Meeting Pool when my wife & I got married 24 years ago. Hope the Baka people are doing ok in this rapidly changing world!

Man I love this style so much. Sounds so positive and ebullient. It would be really cool to know the English translation of these words. Could you guys do that?
Thank you for the close up on the guitar like that. I really want to play like this, so its helpful to see the lad's fingers like that.
May The Lord God bless you all with the desires of your heart and with the mighty hand of God as a helper in this world, now and evermore. amen
Excelente! Un abrazo desde Argentina
