Rhythmic root

Rooted in the vibrant pulse of African-inspired music, diverse musicians collaborate and resonate, expressing our shared human origin through a single root. Maru-17's live djembe drumming intertwines with Az's soulful vocals over the electrifying beats of DJ Favisama, a devoted champion of West African Afro House. Magnetic dancers bring this boundary-transcending musical odyssey to life.

アフリカが原点の音楽を通じて、異なるスタイルのミュージシャンがコラボレーションし共鳴することで、1つのルーツで繋がる人類を表現していきます。西アフリカ発祥のアフロ・ハウスをこよなく愛するFavisama(Dj)の音楽に、Maru-17（ジャンベ）とAz（歌）がリアルタイムで演奏しダンサーが乱舞する、今までに無い音楽の旅行に連れていきます。
