              <text>Cameroonian composer and producer Franck Biyong who appeared at The Pan African Space Station Festival in Cape Town (2009) is back with a new Afrolectric release.&#13;
&#13;
Recorded in Cameroon, Visions of Kamerun see Biyong and his crew navigate the psycho-geography, history and dreams of his home country, as well as the roots, passages and slipstreams that link it to Europe. Featuring 18 tracks including nine sustained spoken interludes, the album offers a nod to the wisdom, vision and style&#13;
of Bob Marley’s Talking Blues (released in 1991 on Tuff Gong).&#13;
&#13;
Mixed in Paris, the album brings together delicate traditional percussion, subtle afro-jazz drumming, beautiful minimal guitar riffs, and Massak’s typically powerful horn section, with soulful vocals from Franck Biyong, Sandra Nkaké and Gladys Gambie.&#13;
&#13;
Defining a salutary musical movement called New Afropolitan Jazz, with a solid, deeply sincere emotional core, the album balances sound exploration, rhythmic vivacity, soul depth and cultural immersion.&#13;

Afrolectric Mobile Studios, Auditorium de Saint Ouen&#13;
