So many of you have asked for it.</p> <p lang="en-US">  </p> <p lang="en-US"> <strong>Thanks to you the exchanges will continue beyond the concerts.</strong></p> <p lang="en-US">  </p> <p lang="en-US"> Sung in Xhosa, my mother tongue, the ten tracks of the album are all stories that recount my relationship with the land of my ancestors. In helping me make this album you will allow these songs to be shared around the world.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2F_WgjvCp_qzU%3Fwmode%3Dopaque%26feature%3Doembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D_WgjvCp_qzU&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F_WgjvCp_qzU%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Banner4-origins-1474559177" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/351997/banner4-origins-1474559177.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> This music project was born in 2012 in Marseille. Since then I have been touring and developing it with my musicians.</p> <p lang="fr-FR">  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> I write and compose my own songs. I also play percussions. The arrangements are made in collaboration with guitarist Fred Salles, who has lived in South Africa. Each musician brings in some of his universe and we refine the repertoire together.</p> <p lang="fr-FR">  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> With me on stage are Dimitri Reverchon on percussions, Lamine Diagne on wind instruments, and Fred Salles, Wim Welker or Cyril Perón-Dehghan on guitar.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fplayer.vimeo.com%2Fvideo%2F184718880&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F184718880&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.vimeocdn.com%2Fvideo%2F594233360_1280.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=vimeo" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Banner5-themusic-1474559196" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/351998/banner5-themusic-1474559196.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> The musical universe of this album is created by the voices and the acoustic instruments. Its roots are in my Xhosa culture -that of Mandela- and the exchanges I have had between continents continue to nurture it. The listener can hear some shades of jazz, as well as other colours from Africa.</p> <p lang="fr-FR">  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> <strong>Within my music I invite you to share emotion and experience the thrill of trance.</strong></p> <p lang="fr-FR">  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> My songs tell stories of ghosts, lovers on their way to their first encounter, a mother whose child is crying, men chained at the bottom of a mine... Stories of spirituality and humanity.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="500" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fw.soundcloud.com%2Fplayer%2F%3Fvisual%3Dtrue%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fapi.soundcloud.com%252Fplaylists%252F260772598%26show_artwork%3Dtrue&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Flesud-delautre%2Fsets%2Falbum-extracts&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fi1.sndcdn.com%2Fartworks-000183697893-coir2e-t500x500.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=soundcloud" width="500"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Banner3-thespirit-1474559219" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/351999/banner3-thespirit-1474559219.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p lang="fr-FR"> My inspiration is the African concept of Ubuntu. In my mother tongue we use three words to define it: Umuntu, Gumuntu, Ngabantu.</p> <p> In English, "I am a person because I am among other people", or simply put: "I am because we are".</p> <p>  </p> <p> Musically and artistically I grow up among you. Through my music I wish to contribute to your life with moments of emotion and joy, and to take you on a beautiful journey.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Today I need your support to finalise an album that I hope will allow us to go further!</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Sibongile_mbambo-kkbb-01-warm-1474385301" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/351356/Sibongile_MBAMBO-KKBB-01-warm-1474385301.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>More videos to be viewed in the tab "News" !</strong></p>

Allocation of funds

<p> We have financed most of the production of the album. The tracks have been recorded by Dimitri and Fred, and the mix has been made by Yul Edorth at his Da Town studio.</p> <p>  </p> <p> We still have to do: the mastering, the graphic design and to press the first 1000 CD. All these steps have a cost and we need your support on this!</p> <p> <strong>Do not wait to participate in this beautiful album, to postpone undermines the crowdfunding, the right time is now!</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Sibongile_mbambo-studio_dimitri-1473847089" height="217" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/349574/Sibongile_Mbambo-studio_dimitri-1473847089.jpg" width="290"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Projected Budget:</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> Additional mix: 480€</p> <p> Mastering: 700 €</p> <p> Photo studio: 200€</p> <p> CD cover Design: 650€</p> <p> CD press (3 parts digipack) 1000 unit + SDRM : 1600€</p> <p> Rewards shipment: 960 €</p> <p> KKBB's rate=8%: 400€</p> <p> Total: 4990€</p> <p>  </p> <p> Ideally this will be completed before the end of the year and then we will release the album by the beginning of 2017.</p> <p> <strong>And if we manage to surpass the goal together, we would love to make a music video!</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p>
