Nan Ginen O Peyi a Chanje - RAM Kanaval 2023

“Nan Ginen O (Peyi a Chanje)” carries RAM into the 2023 carnival season with a title placing Ginen memory beside a country that has changed. The Haitian roots recording lasts three minutes and forty-six seconds, brief for a carnival route, so drums, chants, and message must arrive without detours. In Haitian spiritual language, Ginen can carry ideas of ancestry and an origin place, while the parenthetical phrase looks at the present. RAM uses electric band sound and lakou memory to turn the distance between those times into a public call.
