!&KE">3Qu A sprawling example of "world groove," Zap Mama's sixth album is further proof that in these interconnected times the musical world really is shrinking. Born in the Congo and raised in the French culture of Belgium, Zap Mama founder and driving force Marie Daulne has always ignored the barriers between musical genres like so many outdated speed limits on a dusty highway, but on Supermoon she dips into so many styles--Afropop, R&B, hip-hop, funk--as to reduce those barriers to a delightful irrelevancy. Helped by a smorgasbord of big-name collaborators--Me'shell N'degeocello, Tony Allen, and Spearhead's Michael Franti all guest for one track each--Daulne turns African pygmy music into a rollicking club anthem on "Gati," borrows James Brown's "Payback" guitar riff on "Toma Taboo," uses the intricate polyrhythmic arrangement of "Go Boy" for a touching tale of an African immigrant, and evokes modern soul singers like Macy Gray on the title track. Through it all, the intricate vocal arrangements and production that are Zap Mama's trademark--performed largely by Daulne herself--never fail to astonish.
YL;*%XmAG =hh,yi There's an alluring place where the mystique of the African continent meets the complexity of the Western world. It's a place where rhythm and beauty, myth and melody, history and harmony converge. It's a place where anything is possible. For more than 15 years, the musical entity known as Zap Mama has stood at that crossroads. Born in the Congo to an African mother and Belgian father, harbored by pygmies in the forest in the midst of revolution, and raised in the predominantly French culture of Belgium, vocalist and founder Marie Daulne is not only a living map of the world, but a purveyor of its rich stories and an ambassador to all of its diverse cultures. A brilliant songwriter and performer, she distills and reflects creative energy from an infinite array of sources and beams it back to the world with a brilliance that is unsurpassed.

.s A REJB m Zap Mama是由五个歌声极佳的女生所组成的五重唱组合，虽然是团体，不过该团的创始人Marie Daulne才是最重要的核心人物。Marie Daulne是一位黑白混血儿，父亲为比利时人，母亲为非洲萨伊﹝刚果﹞人，当母亲怀着Daulne时，因为当时的革命行动而失去了父亲，这时为了逃命母亲就带着Daulne躲进非洲森林里的俾格米部落﹝Daulne的母亲就是俾格米族人﹞，虽然后来Daulne回到比利时成长，更接受了西方音乐的薰陶，但当她再次听到俾格米的传统音乐在她耳边响起时，那个童年时代熟悉的音乐让20岁的Dulne认定了她的音乐使命，因为这样充满生命力的音乐是她命中注定要做的事情，所以她回到非洲学习俾格米音乐的演唱。音乐的学习告一段落之后，Daulne回到西方世界的家乡─比利时，找到了其他几位声音杰出的团员， Zap Mama诞生了！
\3U.;}0_X V^G+_#@,, 这张专辑几乎可以说是Marie Daulne的个人独秀，Daulne依旧守护着Zap Mama的团名与世界音乐的招牌，因为对她来说，Zap Mama不过是她的另一个名称。
