Morning Mist “The African diaspora throughout the Americas feels to me like a big river, flowing and changing its formation across various lands, but Wave Under Silk remaining one immense watercourse. Carib is my continuation of Madigra that river, a personal and musical stream I began when I became Fernando's Theme bandleader for my first album, The Departure (1994) where you can clearly hear Puerto Rican rhythms running throughout. Another fork, Mirage my album Melaza (2000), has the most substantial connection with Prelude to Canto Carib because of its flow and the strong influence of the bomba Canto music tradition from Puerto Rico. I believe some of the greatest contributions to contemporary music and culture have come from The Land of Hills the African diaspora throughout the Americas. Unfortunately, there Iwa (Contemplation) seems to be too little awareness of their influence, especially the vital Iwa (Spirit going back home) stories told by the music. So, I wanted to approach this album as a A Thousand Yesterdays means to pay tribute to all Afro descendent communities who have helped define my music and the culture’s broad ranging beauty and idiosyncrasies.
Carib features traditional music from these two islands, because it still amazes me how similar their music flows. I focused on the Congo-Guinee in Haitian music because it is a musical tradition shared by many other Afro descendant cultures.”
