Daam LO: BabyloneDans an artist in this world where everyday life becomes more complicated throughout the global village is making its spectrum policy, a special police discrimination; no possible peaceful outcome! Some specialize in criminal rhymes draw the mathematical equation, to find a legal solution possible in this part of a nostalgic past of deportation and ethnic cleansing! Lyrikal shamaanik.Oubliez clichés about the roots and origins. If the painting of Mr. Mamadou aka Daam LÔ still bears traces of it in his youth in Dakar, his music instead, not only the work of a young Senegalese man. It is above all that of a global citizen. Under the name Daam LO (Senegal, is a diminutive Daam Mamadou), the artist composes music and rocked many destabilizing influences. There are such deep breaths reggae (or reggae), but the convulsions of the urban hip hop, funk and tremors while the echoes of dub bass, and futuristic visions expérimentales.S it is to original six albums, all self-produced and distributed for free, Daam LÔ total is also an artist, musician but also a painter. Inspired by the great masters such as Rembrandt figurative, Courbet, Iba Ndiaye, Edward Hopper, or Qi Baishi, Li Keran, Hokusai and Utamaro, he maintains his passion since his childhood. More generally, we can say about the painting of this young graduate of the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Nancy (also holds a professional tray - Optional mechanical engineering - and a first round of DEFA in architecture) that it carries a symbolism of the sign. The artist plays with inaccessible symbols of shamanism and magic of Africa. Indices usually reserved for insiders, it spreads with malice in his paintings. Portraits in acrylic or oil, in solid colors, or mixed (a combination home-glycero of acrylic paint and rags), his imagery is steeped in the tradition of Primitive Art (with the image masks and traditional African sculpture). He also happens to render homage to familiar issues of contemporary history, as Bob Marley or Che Guevara. An inspiration that draws on folk art, the mural to pop music, and an approach makes sense for a self-taught artist who, in music, as on the canvas, refusing all academics, preaching to the art of simplicité.Cette street with sincerity and connection with the world, this position of observer, is also present in his music. This is particularly evident on tracks like "Keeper Voice," "Total Destruction", or "Ancient Spirit Funk." There Daam LÔ, a spectator, but also aware and careful commentator, expressed sometimes harshly, sometimes with wisdom, his vision of a world deeply divided. But his music is also another place where privileged develops his imagination. An inner world and in constant movement, where the symbols of African culture intersects with a global culture, it also shifting. Cultivating a dense and heavy, sensual and soulful, a flow often chanted frantically Daam LÔ is part of its artists, who, by Massive Attack or Tricky Roots Manuva - through the ins rap and current dubs toe - like to speak in a register ambiguous. A picture of a world subdued where nothing is really what it seems, the music of LÔ Daam, both primary and urban, is the work of someone deeply aware of the flaws of civilization, a place where there is mostly violence and injustice, abandonment of values and loss of roots. His music is imbued with a clarity and sometimes even a darkness that does not stop to host a flame inside. Like all creative Daam LÔ remembers because it is the duty of artists to keep hope and to share this light with others inside. Maxence Grugier MCD Magazine ..
