About this product

Tinariwen are the grandfathers of what we know today as Taureg guitar music. Started in refugee camps in Algeria and Libya in 1979, Tinariwen created a new sound of Taureg music that pushed the tradition into a new direction. Ahmoudou, Souleymane, and I all came to Tinariwen in different ways throughout our life and there is no doubt the importance the music has on all three of us. Just as much as Tinariwen pushed what Tuareg music is, that was the idea with Takaat is, to push the tradition even further, create something new, create something fresh that blends our love for bands like Tinariwen but also our love of heavier more chaotic bands. Is Noise Vol. 2 includes the Takaat versions of a couple of our favorite Tinariwen tunes. Unlike the original Tinariwen versions, these songs are unedited shredding jams recorded live to tape in Washington D.C. This is raw, this is noisy, this is Takaat.-Mikey Coltun'Damn, that's very good.' - Ahmoudou Madassane

Takaat - Is Noise Vol. 3   - VINYL LP

With bass drones cranked way past 11, frantic guitar shredding passages, and blown out drum machines, TAKAAT's 'Is Noise Vol. 3' poses the question, 'what if the Tuareg songwriting legends Tinariwen started a band with drone-lords Sunn O)))? Well, that might be what 'Is Noise Vol. 3' kinda sounds like.Drawing from sonic inspiration of blown out Takamba recordings of the Sahel, slinky drum machines of Hausa pop mp3s, and manipulated field recordings collected in Agadez, Niger, 'Is Noise Vol. 3' is yet another exciting musical departure from it's prior volume.TAKAAT was birthed from the idea of always evolving concepts and taking risks, seeing each volume as an opportunity to explore noisy futures steeped in a shared language of DIY. Through chronological limited 10 EPs you too can take the noise home. Play it loud.Inch -Mikey Coltun
