It's a rough sound, with a galloping rhythm. Created on Santiago, the largest island of Cape Verde, the Funaná is the long suppressed music of the simple rural population. He is carried by an accordion and the "ferrinho" - an iron rod, which is beaten wildly with a knife, rubbed vigorously and sometimes gently caressed. Because the Funaná is fast with up to 150 bpm, DJs have now discovered it. Now Available: Bitori: Legend of Funaná - The Forbidden Music of the Cape Verde Islands (Analog Africa No. 21).
