Madagascar Medley
On a return trip to Madagascar, we catch up with and hear new music from tsapiky maestro Damily, the \u201cKing of Salegy\u201d Jaojoby, an exciting new duo starring Sammy of Tarika Sammy, Toko Telo and more. This music-rich edition is filled with entrancing and hard-to-find roots pop. In the wake of 2018\u2019s hard-fought presidential election, Madagascar faces a new era with former DJ Andry Rajoelina at the helm. Word is his theme song was a major boost. We\u2019ll hear it. We\u2019ll also sample rare field recordings from this spectacularly musical and often overlooked Indian Ocean island. Produced by Banning Eyre.\n\nAPWW #800\nOriginally broadcast in 2019
