Sonokinetic Maasai KONTAKTSprung from ancient traditions and rituals, music has captured the souls and spirits of millions of people since the dawn of time.
These deep roots of the origin of music are found best on the original motherland of the human race. Recorded on location deep within the Kenyan tribal village communities we discovered an unprecedented rich culture of rhythms and songs, and chants that capture your imagination. Scraping the surface of this vast cultural heritage Russ Landau and Sonokinetic invested in producing a collection of samples that are unmatched in authenticity, realism, power and beauty. Lomax would have been jealous and anxious if he’d knew what would be possible with modern technology.
