Bamako Basement by QVLN - Quetzal Guerrero

This song was composed during a recent trip to Bamako, Mali. Quetzal received an invitation to perform for the album release concert of virtuoso musician Bassidi Koné that sparked the idea to travel there. While experiencing the incredible music and colorful culture he was introduced to many talented artists and the inspiration felt gave birth to this song. It features the amazing guitarist Sidi Diallo who is the nephew of the legendary Moussa Diakite to whom he was also collaborating with during this time. Bamako Basement encapsulates the emotion, groove and atmosphere of QVLN's experience in Mali which he holds dear to his heart. Stay tuned for remixes coming soon.
