Africa Express Presents: Maison Des Jeunes was recorded in Bamako, Mali in October 2013. Africa Express musicians and producers set up a temporary studio in a city youth club and worked with a new wave of contemporary Malian musicians to complete the album in one week. The club, situated on the banks of the Niger river and known locally as Maison Des Jeunes, became the venue of discovery, collaboration, music-making and live performances. The resulting album captures the spontaneity and excitement of a country famed for its musical heritage, yet which saw music briefly banned in much of the nation following a coup and militant takeover in the north in 2012.
