Avalanche Kaito - Dabalomuni from the 2022 Dabalomuni\\xa0EP on Glitterbeat Records.

Avalanche Kaito is as their name suggests, an avalanche of disparate sounds, ideas, and ancestral odes. Made up of Burkinabe griot singer and multi-instrumentalist Kaito Winse and Brussels noise punk musicians Benjamin Chaval (drums, electronics) and Nico Glitter (guitar), the trio fuse West African oral traditions with pummeling post-punk for a sound so unique it defies categorization.

Our Song of the Day, \\u201cDabalomuni,\\u201d comes from the three-song EP of the same name, released in early 2022 and catapulting them into the European festival circuit, the international consciousness, and even the Grammys stage. The song is ferocious, with super-charged, sinewy post-punk rhythms backing a myriad of tribal instrumentation, glitchy electronic flourishes, and Winse\\u2019s powerful, bellowing recitations for a hypnotic experience that makes one ask, \\u201cWhat the hell just happened?\\u201d
