The name Gasandji translates to “one who awakens the conscience”, and that is exactly what the Congo-born singer does on “Batela” with her beautiful, soft, gentle voice. Enjoy the ancestral, spiritual sounds as brought to you by a few of the best the music industry has to offer. Offering Recording’s Boddhi Satva, the father of Ancestral Soul, starts it off with his Ancestral Soul Mix of Batela, followed by Yoruba Records label boss Osunlade with his Yoruba Soul Mix, Kiko Navarro with his Afroterraneo Mix, and closing out strongly once again with Osunlade’s Yoruba Soul Dub. All four versions of Batela truly capture the soul of Gasandji in unique and amazing ways, creating listening experiences and spiritual journeys for the audience only this group of amazing talent can do.
