Angolan folklore, its myths and above all its musicality that, as with many so-called ancient cultures, is based on a pentatonic scale—traces of which can still be found in popular African-American music today—are at the heart of the rhythms shared by Ndaka Yo Wiñi, which means “the voice of the people” in his native language. Recently settled in North America and actively working as a singer, musician, composer and cultural researcher for a dozen years, Ndaka Yo Wiñi sumptuously transcends the spirit of jazz, blues, reggae, soul and folk in his music, bringing out the universality and influence of traditional Ovimbundu, Kwanhama, Kilapanga and Tchianda rhythms with natural ease.
