Mino Cinélu
INVENTIVE DUO CONNECT NORWAY AND THE CARIBBEAN
FOR THIS 2020 RELEASE
Mino Cinélu / Nils Petter Molvær
SulaMadiana
Splicing its title from the west Norwegian island of Sula and a popular synonym for the Caribbean island of Martinique, the new, sonically colourful, teemingly inventive 2020 album is an intertwining of the artists’ far-flung roots, filled with wide-open spaces, jazz/improv surprises and African rhythmic inspirations, all sewn into the tapestry of this entrancing session.

Sit anywhere with someone who knows Mino, and you’ll hear about what a wonderful person he is.
