Haunting, eerie, otherworldly: Epithets for Ethiopian jazz often fail to capture the sheer vibrant joy of the music that flourished in the country from the late ‘60s through the early ‘70s. When a young music student named Mulatu Astatke tried his hand at marrying traditional Ethiopian music with jazz instrumentation, the explosive combination found fertile ground in Addis Ababa, until a military dictatorship cut the moment short. Buda’s Ethiopiques series revived this neglected music in the late ‘90s, and now a new generation of musicians is taking inspiration from the genre’s pioneers, many of whom continued to perform into the 21st century Apple Music is a music and video streaming service developed by Apple Inc.

Alan Silva - Enjoy the ART The emotional power of the Ethiopian ballad style known as tezeta (Amharic for “memory” or “nostalgia”) is perfectly captured in this moody collection of Ethio-jazz and soul. Over haunting piano chords, pulsing bass, and subtle drum breaks, stars like Mahmoud Ahmed and Mulatu Astatke deliver their most melancholic performances from the ’70s glory years. You can feel the darkness lurking behind every note in Alemayehu Eshete’s spooky “Man Yehon Telleq Sèw,” while “Heywèté” is a showcase for Tesfa-Maryam Kidane’s longing, expressive sax leads.
