Martinique’s master of rhythms đ„, Dominique Bougrainville, is finally producing an album under his own name this year. « Ki Nov ? » has already been out since March, but its more than limited distribution has unfortunately not yet offered it the necessary publicity. In it, Dominique Bougrainville showcases his ‘FuzbĂšlĂš’, a blend of jazz fusion, bĂšlĂš, rock, zouk and more. The album features contributions from Alex Bernard, Michel Alibo, Eric Bonheur đž, Olivier Bertrac đč and brother Jean-Luc Bougrainville on vocals, not forgetting backing vocals from Luc Labonne, Annick Charlec and Louisa Plumber. The drummer has also invited a number of talented friends, including Jacques Schwarz-Bart đ· and Franck Nicolas đș, whose saxophone and trumpet respectively light up the tracks Zouti and Bas MaternitĂ©. There’s also Dominique BĂ©rose, Luther François and Annick Tangorra, among many others.
