Transworld Airwaves

Nov 1, 2020 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Specialty

With DJ Madame B

It is a “cross-­cultural musical journey united in voices and rhythms”. We feature voices and rhythms from ethno-­techno and other eclectic rhythms, atonal voices from Tuva to Quebec, and international music rooted from the past, present, and future.

All Hallo Mento

DJ Madame B presents a #AllHalloMento edition of #TransworldAirwaves, celebrating the festive Mento style of Jamaican folk music and its connections to calypso, united in voices and rhythms, on this cross-cultural musical journey. This includes acoustic instruments, such as acoustic guitar, banjo, hand drums, and the rhumba box, with topical lyrics with a humorous slant, with the sound hailing from the 1950s in Jamaica and beyond, with some revival of the sound.
