Ending the week on a high note with one more look at artists sampling the @SamplebarK project🎶
Jazz musician @EddieGreyKenya considers the Sample Bar an innovative tool that is going to have a myriad of possibilities in the music production world.
Letting musicians like @Bensoulmusic sample traditional songs preserves cultural heritage by making it relevant, ensuring wider reach, fostering education, documenting authentic sounds, adapting traditions, and creating financial and artistic incentives.

In todays episode, discover the Chemonge, also known as the Kipkandit - a six stringed instrument akin to a traditional guitar.
This musical treasure is used by the Kalenjin, particularly among the Kipsigis, Nandi and Tugen communities.
Digitized traditional sounds and instruments will greatly influence modern music in Kenya and the region.
