about

On a disco bottom in the flavor andaloux, africangroovin is the espression of an musique as means of resistance in front of the oppresion and of the slander that a citizen in an indefinite country can undergo. Given rhythm by a groove soukouss, the mékange of kind is rich, we cross flutes ney and derbuka which bring an ambiamce magrehb in a fuk-disco which gives a wink in the 80s.

lyrics

SANGO EEE O SANGO EEE O
SANGO EEE O SANGO

SANGO EEE O SANGO EEE O
SANGO EEE O
AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’

Couplet 1:
I’VE HEARD A VOICE FROM THE GROUND
FEELING A STRANGE DANGER AROUND
I KNEW I WAS INSIDE ILLUSION
I WAS THEN IN SUCH CONFUSION
BROTHERS KEEP ON DOGG ON ME
WHY THEY JUST LET ME BE
HERE ABONDONNED IN MY PAIN
NO ONE TO SAVE MY SOUL
(AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH)
CAN I GET YOU DOWN BABE! HEE

Refrain 2:
SANGO EEE O SANGO EEE O
SANGO EEE O SANGO

SANGO EEE O SANGO EEE O
SANGO EEE O
AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’

couplet 2
(HI)WHY THE WIND WAS ON TRACK
ANYTIME I’VE TRIED TO ESCAPE
THIS DAMNED PLACE OF DEATH
WHERE DEVIL BECOME FAITH
WHERE ANYONE CAN GET MY SOUL
(Double voix Filles)
SHOULD I DIE HERE ?
SHOULD I CRY ALONE ? HOUUU

Bridge 1 - filles:
YOKA YOKA
SANGO SANGO

YOKA YOKA
SANGO SANGO

(Sébène 1)
Johnny : Mabwenge, yaya mabwenge
Michel: Mabwenge yaya mabwengeééé

Couplet 3: reprise souffle..
I SURRENDERED TO THE SOUND (ah)
ONCE I’VE REACHED THE TOWN
SINCE THE PERFUME TOUCHED MY BODY
I WAS READY TO BE BURN IN THIS HOLE
WHILE EVERY EYES STARE AT ME
ANYTIME I’VE TRIED TO MOVE AWAY (doublage voix Amétys)
THIS CURSED PLACE BECOME A LADY (doublage voix Awa)
WHOSE SNEAKY CHARM HAUNTS YOU

Solo Bass : 4mesures

AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’
I'm so lonely, I'm so lonely Babe
AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’
This music , groovin, groovin'
AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’
can you hear what I'm saying
AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’
It's hard to me, please hear what I'm saying..

SANGO EEE O SANGO EEE O
SANGO EEE O SANGO
SANGO EEE O SANGO EEE O
SANGO EEE O
AFRICANGROVIN AFRICANGROVIN’
Tell me tell me
SANGO EEE

Johnny:
Tala ndenke batonka biso
Tala ndenke baboma biso
Europa Asia Biso nionso
Tala ndenke ba finga biso
Tozala ba moko

Bantunani Paris, France

More than music, Bantunani is primarily an adventure, the will of a person to continually unite around her musicians from all walks of life to draw a sound, thought, and a groove nomadic that caresses the ages languages and styles. It rubs happy soul, funk, R & B and Afrobeat in a world where the guitars are expressed between joy and arrogance behind hushed vocals. ... more
