Djim Radé
"A strong melodic sense and an overall delicacy, which makes his record the perfect companion early in the morning as well as late in the evening."
"An album that is also pan-African and unifying, where one can hear traditional Chadian rhythms such as Saï, Bayan, Gourna, Toh, etc. But also rhythms shared among several African countries such as rumba or the fusion between Senegal's Mbalax and Chad's Samagoï."
"Djim Radé skillfully handles Chadian rhythms, subtly intertwining them with swing. Between familiarity and contrasts, Chadian music shares more with jazz than one might think."
