After the line "I can’t get enough of the entrancing pentatonic grooves of Malian Bambara music", I about busted a gut. The first line in a post and I'm off to look up the definition of "pentatonic". The post goes on to describe the orchestres of Mopti as being like the city, "a funky, crazy yet laid-back, dirty crossroads". Sold.
I don't know how I found Cocoringo's Circadian Sounds, but after poking around over there, I'm thoroughly sucked in. If you dig international music, one night won't do it. Bookmark the sucker. The post that hooked me was about the Orchestre Régional de Mopti, and it only got less familiar, more far flung and more enjoyable from there. Your three chord blues progressions will resume shortly.
