DJECKA MUSIC
Djecka is a traditional form of music from the Bissa region of Burkina Faso, in West Africa. It is created and played on two instruments, the konde (a two-string guitar) and the sikassaka (a percussion instrument that provides the djecka rhythm).
Djecka is played during festivities, weddings, funerals and other events, with people dancing in a circle around the musicians, bumping hips with the dancer on each side. It’s good music to dance to when you’re in love.
Doundosy was called ‘The Ambassador of Djecka’ after his first album Melodie Djecka was released in 2001, featuring the hit song Etrangers. He is currently working on a new album in London.
