Iceland
11:00 - 13:00

In Iceland, Thomas Stankiewicz contemplates the constant flux of the elements. A composer & musician in his own right, he selectively weaves in between soundtracks, classical music, and evocative ambient sounds, symphonically unveiling untold stories from past and future… @tommmasi

COTONOU
12:00 - 14:00

Based in Cotonou, Benin, which at the time was referred to as Dahomey, Albarika Records was founded by the French-born, Benin-based producer and entrepreneur, Emmanuel "Manu" Dibango, who had a significant influence on the local music scene. The label was instrumental in releasing records from some of the region's most prominent musicians during the golden age of African music. Many of the artists signed to Albarika Records were known for blending indigenous African rhythms with Western jazz, funk, and soul influences. This made their sound distinctive and part of a broader movement across West Africa during the 60s and 70s, as music became a form of social and political expression.
