Oi, pessoal; during our 2 weeks stay with AFRICARE in Chimoio we produced some pretty tunes, that you can download….
-
“Queremos viver“, which was recorded in the Escola Secundaria 7 de Abril, a wicked kwassa kwassa style with powerful message. The children sing about their future and the obstacles to achieve their dreams. Sex abuse, violation and infection with HIV were some of the reasons, given by the participants.

“Respeite teu corpo” was recorded in the Escola Primaria Panga Panga in Gondola, 15 km from Chimoio. It was our first attempt to work with Primary School children discussing HIV messages. The participants explain the ways in which you can become infected with HIV and the ways that you cannot get infected; as we know there is a lot of misinformation: many Mozambicans think that just touching an HIV infected person would infect them as well, or using the same towel or clothes. Also mosquitos are considered as potential HIV carriers of HIV infection. This song attempts to dispell the misinformation.

Darren asked me if I could do a kind of Funk style for the song in Helen`s school. He searched his discography to put on some tracks of Gil Scott Heron which we enjoyed a lot. Brian Jackson`s flute gave us the rest.

Hello POSITIVOS from our endangered planet,
ALMA song is ready today.
The name of the song is ‘Se o quintal fica limpo’, which means ‘if the garden is clean’. A story ? The song was written during a workshop in Cine-Teatro Tofo on the 4th of april and recorded on the 15th in BOM DIA studio in Inhambane. The delay between these 2 dates was due to malaria intrusion. Participants in the workshop are women and men living and working in dump sites of Tofo and Inhambane, and now working for ALMA.
This song is a POSITIVO gift to the planet and a tribute to ALMA’s fantastic waste management and recycling work in Inhambane province of Mozambique.
Enjoy
