Ndagga Rhythm Force represents the electrifying evolution of Mark Ernestus' Senegalese music project. Born from spontaneous recording sessions with over 20 Dakar percussionists in 2011, this collaboration between the Basic Channel/Rhythm & Sound pioneer and traditional Mbalax musicians has developed into something truly unique.
Following their acclaimed 2016 album "Yermande," their long-awaited new release "Khadim" arrives in April 2025 on Ernestus' Ndagga imprint. The four expansive tracks echo his earlier dub explorations while showcasing the vibrant Senegalese sabar traditions.
Expect an unforgettable evening of rhythmic intensity led by charismatic singer Mbene Diatta Seck and veteran percussionist Bada Seck. Fresh from a sold-out residency at London's Cafe OTO and festival appearances across Europe, their stunning live performances prove why they've become international circuit favorites.
