Tinariwen announce live album 'Live In Paris, Oukis N'Asuf' will be released on Friday November 20th 2015 on Wedge

The album was recorded at a very special concert at the Bouffes du Nord in Paris on Saturday 13th December 2014 and features the band performing alongside 75-year-old ‘grand dame’ of Tamashek culture Lalla Badi.

Additionally a limited edition version of the album will be available featuring a gig poster designed by Chris Hopewell of Jacknife Prints (www.jacknifeposters.bigcartel.com). Limited to 250 copies, the posters will be hand numbered and signed.

The album’s title, Oukis N’Asuf, which, translated literally, means to take away, forget or get over heart-ache and longing. Asuf - the longing of the soul - conjures up the feeling of separation from the Touareg camp, the physical environment of the desert, its emptiness, its blackness, and its spirits.

“When you feel asuf” says bassist Eyadou ag Leche, “you get shivers all over your skin.”

A hypnotic evening of guitar and tindé (small mortar drum covered by a taut goatskin) normally reserved for more in intimate spaces - around a fire in the desert in southern Algeria perhaps, or in the yard of a house somewhere in the northern Mali – this very special show came at the very end of a tour comprising more than 130 dates, undertaken in part to promote their last album Emmaar.

Lalla Badi, who remains the queen of tindé (a word that denotes both an instrument played exclusively by women, and a poetic repertoire which is sung at ceremonies and special occasions), is originally from Timiaoune in the far south of the Algerian Sahara and now lives in Tamanrasset.

She became a mentor to the Touareg in the 1970s, thanks both to her mastery of this musical genre and her commitment to the Touareg cause. Back then she took in the ishumars (unemployed vagrants), those Touareg who had set off to Libya in search of a better life.

Like them, the future members of Tinariwen also fled repression and the crippling droughts of northern Mali in those dark years, stopping off in Algeria along the way. Lalla Badi took them under her wing, became like a mother to them, a big sister, an accomplice and the performance in Paris, her first show in France in over thirty years, gave Tinarwen the opportunity to show their respect and gratitude.

Tinariwen kondigt een live-album aan 'Live In Paris, Oukis N'Asuf', dat op vrijdag 20 november 2015 op Wedge zal worden uitgebracht.

Het album werd opgenomen tijdens een bijzonder concert in de Bouffes du Nord in Parijs op zaterdag 13 december 2014, met de 75-jarige 'Grand Dame' van Tamashek Lalla Badi. Er zal een limited edition versie van het album beschikbaar zijn met een poster ontworpen door Chris Hopewell van Jacknife Prints. Deze zijn beperkt tot 250 exemplaren, de affiches zijn genummerd en gesigneerd.

Het album titel, Oukis N'Asuf, betekent letterlijk vertaald “om mee te nemen, vergeten of hartpijn overwinnen”.

Asuf - het verlangen van de ziel - roept het gevoel op van de scheiding van het Touareg kamp, ​​de fysieke omgeving van de woestijn, de leegte, de duisternis en de geesten.

"Als je het gevoel asuf hebt", zegt bassist Eyadou ag Leche, " krijg je rillingen over je huid."

De toer met 130 data dat diende om hun laatste album Emmaar te promoten werd gebracht met gitaar en Tinde (een drum bedekt door een strak geitenvel), een tafereel dat je normaal alleen maar aantreft rond een vuur in de woestijn in het zuiden van Algerije.

Lalla Badi, de koningin van de Tinde komt oorspronkelijk uit Timiaoune in het uiterste zuiden van de Algerijnse Sahara en woont nu in Tamanrasset. Ze werd een mentor aan de Touareg in 1970, zowel voor haar talent als voor haar inzet voor de Touareg oorzaak. Ze bekommerde zich om de ishumars (werkloze zwervers).
