Salif Keïta’s new album, Talé, put together with Gotan Project’s Philippe Cohen-Solal in Bamako, moves away from a pure “club” sound and takes its listeners into electro lands. This is not the first time that Salif Keïta will have got people dancing in clubs, though. Madan, his 2002 remix with Martin Solveig, became a staple on some of the trendiest dance floors of London, New York and Tokyo.
