Franck Biyong & Massak - Realms Of Atlantis
(Limited CD/Download) Colored-Inc. COLI017, 2010-07-27

Pursuing their productive collaboration with the Colored-Inc. label, this is yet another release from Franck Biyong & Massak. This collection of moods and athmospheres explores a more relaxed and spiritual dimension of their music.
"We try use sounds and tension/release effects in our musical narratives the same way an archeologist would do with words while relating the lost treasures he encounters in his private diary" says Franck about these haunting athmospheres that are real "conceptual continuity" clues to be found in each of Massak's instrumental releases.
Remixed,remastered, with a different running order of songs this new edition of Realms Of Atlantis features the underground hit B.L.A. that got it all started for Massak on the international level.

Franck Biyong & Massak - Rhythms of our Memory (COLI017) out june 21st 2010

Franck Biyong and Massak Rhythms of our Memory

Franck Biyong & Massak - Rhythms of our Memory
New Directions In Afro Music - Volume 2
(Limited CD/Download) Colored-Inc. COLI017, 2010-06-21

This is the second 'straight from the vault' recordings from Afrolectric Music, a compilation of Massak's most adventurous music, with limited commercial potential (needless to say)... but, who really cares about that?? Based on the celebrations of the abolition of Slavery in France (that took place only 4 years ago officially...), this music dives deeper inside a 'dark night of the soul' state of mind, while bringing forth new sonic dimensions to this bold free-form Afro Jazz madness. The highlight tracks include fine orchestrations combined with the spirit of (outer space) improvised music. These Rhythms of our memory pay homage to a long time oral tradition: Continuity in spontaneity...

Franck Biyong and Massak Visions Of Kamerun

Franck Biyong & Massak - Visions of Kamerun
New Directions In Afro Music - Volume 3
(Limited CD/Download) Colored-Inc. COLI011, 2010-06-07

Recorded in Cameroon, this Afrolectric 9-tracker - with 9 spoken interludes of some selected elders' wisdom - tells the history and the links of a Southern country with Europe, with an interrogative and perplexed glance over the present state of things.

Mixed by Grant Phabao in Paris, Visions Of Kamerun gathers African harmonies, delicate traditional percussions, subtle afro-jazz drummings, delicious minimal guitar riffs, the tropically powerful Massak horn section, with soulful vocals from Franck Biyong, Sandra NKaké and Gladys Gambie.

Defining a salutary musical movement called Nuevo Afropean Jazz, with a solid, deeply sincere emotional core, the album balances equally between Jazz exploration, rhythmic vivacity, Soul depth and cultural immersion.
