NEGUS by Al Gromer Khan. Ambient music taken to the future.
Slower, more subtle, less, closer -
the philosophy has proved enduring, effective and satisfying.
'Africa has an ancient tradition of sovereignty. The Negus Principle represents the noblesse and grandeur of the African continent.
Negus, the King, as a lofty principle, one to ponder in times where democracy is being hollowed out. Presidents and ministers would seek wise counsel that contain humour, intuitive and spiritual wisdom from the King who has risen beyond duality - someone like Hound Dog Taylor or Pallukollo Baba. That it should have permanence and continuance under all circumstance was the criteria for the music on NEGUS. Those with ears will hear.'
