Just thought I should also point out this is not a pay a musician once for a session then go project. This is a long term development project between us all involving shared song writing (and rights), and years ahead especially given I am married to a Malian and will at the latest retire in this country, if not return far earlier :) My hope is one day this will become an Non Governmental Organisation or such like. I worked in development for years and always noted the lack of support for artists/musicians and it bugged me. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/invisiblesystem/isim-invisible-system-in-mali

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wp-yCyXVIU&list=UUEYyNKzXlzbmJr84Is-sNug&feature=c4-overview Acid Mali 2000 is released in around 3 weeks as a double album alongside Azmariz. Acid Mali was recorded in Mali, in the Sahara Desert in the year 2000 using a solar panel and car battery with a shite old 3GB hard drive laptop running the defunct Egosystems Wami Box! The first laptop sound card/sampler that was a nightmare, never worked properly and died a death.. The album sweats out the heat of the desert with me fuelled up on Malian tea and acid pumping out my youth in Brighton, Brixton and passing through Goa whilst backpacking in India!
