In the tropical Caribbean forest a river runs, the&nbsp;streaming water drowning out the&nbsp;rustling of leaves, the pulse of insects and&nbsp;the birds’ cry. The song of a man, more powerful than that&nbsp;of the waters,&nbsp;rises to the tops of the ancient trees. Polobi, balanced on a rock, launches a&nbsp;melody&nbsp;towards the infinity of the sky. Drawing inspiration from the heart of the tropical forest, the mystical&nbsp;character of Polobi and his&nbsp;musicians collaborate with idiosyncratic producer Doctor&nbsp;L (Les Amazones d’Afrique, Mbongwana&nbsp;Star), forging a radical new take on the&nbsp;Gwo Ka musical tradition from the Caribbean island of&nbsp;Guadeloupe. An&nbsp;electro-acoustic palette and offbeat rhythms adorn these deeply rooted Creole&nbsp;songs&nbsp;with a unique sound universe.
