Bio / Background
Brice Wassy is originally from Cameroon, West Africa where he spent his childhood years. As a teenager he moved to the cosmopolitan cultural capital of Paris, France where he still makes his home. He has recorded with Manu Dibango, Salif Keita, Mory Kante, Myriam Makeba, Don Cherry, Graham Haynes, Jean Luc Ponty, and Mike Ellis to name a few. Wassy is an extraordinary musical artist in all respects; the exceptional originality of his performance and compositional styles being first and foremost. His vast musical culture makes him truly a World Jazz artist, a musician without borders, who draws from all music with the uncanny ability to meld these influences into a coherent and personal statement. As a drummer and percussionist, his rock steady groove and polyrhythmic virtuosity are awe inspiring.

"Meditations" is a musical manifesto, a compendium of the sum total of life experience thus far which draws deeply from a roots oriented introspection; a journey deep into mind of an intriguing and exceptional artist.
All pieces on this recording are completely performed by Brice through a multi-track overdubbing process, which enables him to perform on a wide array of musical instruments seemingly simultaneously. Traditional Cameroonian instruments provide the distinctive timbre palette for this exotic, lush, and hypnotic soundscape.
