FOLI (there is no movement without rhythm) original version by Thomas Roebers and Floris Leeuwenberg

- Dedicated to the people of Baro. Please share.
Life has a rhythm, it's constantly moving.
The word for rhythm ( used by the Malinke tribes ) is FOLI.
It is a word that encompasses so much more than drumming, dancing or sound.
It's found in every part of daily life.
In this film you not only hear and feel rhythm but you see it.
It's an extraordinary blend of image and sound that
feeds the senses and reminds us all
how essential it is. - เพลง

8:01 "We're not going to cut the throat of our culture. We're going to keep it alive. It will live on." Powerful!
My favorite part too!
@Sao Ham roman had no culture? What about slavic anglic germanic etc.
@Sao Ham besides that most of those tribes are just banging the drum and dancing en praying to a certain god
why dont you just go live with them?> one way ticket... just saying
@@5pandas512 why don't you open your buht and allow more pnss in?
I'm 13 years late but I'm really glad I've found this in 2024, it's giving me hope again for our world. Thank you
Hohohohoho
I remember reading an old japanese book on the same subject. It spoke of combat but it also went on on how rythm permeates everything in life. What I find cool is how it's such a human way of measuring what you do, is not only a sound, or a movement, it's habits, tone of voice in a conversation, patterns of thought. I like how this video illustrates the broadness of the actual word and how surreal it must be to live among people that integrate harmonious rythms to their very core culture.
What's the book?
Great comment btw
beautifully put.
What was the book?
I don't know if science has proove for my idea. But I think , before our ancestors were able to speak, they used their bodies: Hunting, gathering, using first tools. Why shouldn't they have first used rhythmic body movements for communication? I think that's the origin of rhythm and dance in all our cultures. Or maybe that's just my Imagination. 🙂
Watch this off and on for nearly 10 years after we found it by accident. And everytime I watch it 'I cry at the beauty, fragility, resilience & conviction. We will not let them cut the throat of our culture. We will live. Like grasslands or the endless sky- ancient people & ancient culture live with this joy and very little materially being pushed to the margins.
I was about to post almost EXACTLY the same comment !!!! We are so lucky someone did this video... it
Thank YOU Africa!!! You teach us the real thing! I lived there and since I came back I call Africa a "reality maker". I hope we could follow these footsteps, values and most of all radical truth!
it s only one part of Africa, myself am African but i don't know this performance!
Thanks Africa for your rhythm richness, for the jazz, the blues, the rock and roll, the salsa, the mambo, bomba, plena, guaguanco, thank you.
And the Samba?
Afrobeats
@Phil Rock and roll came from Jazz which originated from the answer and call style of music brought from enslaved Africans. So yes, those are of African origin and they just evolved in America.
don't forget life itself!!!
The life begun in the Ocean - not necessarily in Africa.
this was actually well directed, props to everyone involved

Agreed💯
Oh yes its very earthly and spiritual the bible is full of music and wine why you think all of their eyes was blood red lol, playing that good music and drinking that good wine.
This video just changed my whole outlook on life.
The roots of music
it’s so crazy how across cultures and continents humans share an innate sense of rhythm and can let our bodies become one with music. music and dance really are universal languages
That's because, according to DNA, we all come from Africa, and drums used to be as ubiquitous as cell phones. :) TH-cam doesn't let people post links, but check out the band "Black Uhuru" song "Whole World is Africa." :)

Music is from the devil.
I am African and drums do something to me. The rhythm brings life to my veins. It speaks when words are not being said. It's frequency, it's vibrations, it's ontological mathematics. It makes us human!
wow such strong and beautiful words,, same here but i am european.. we are all the same really
I'm Irish and I get the same sensation from harps.

Sound is everything. Everything is sound. Even silence.
I love how they showed the production process of a traditional African drum
everything about the film is mesmerising. no other word for it.
love their concept of rhythm. if you extend that to societies and social environments, it talks about cohesion. on an individual level, it reminds you that every move you make is meaningful, and every step in the way is meant to pace yourself - that’s rhythm.

oh, did you just get here?
Je suis profondément touchée par ce chef d'oeuvre. La mise en scène, les couleurs, les rythmes et movements. Cela évoques mes souvenirs de l'Afrique avec les Mandinka, la danse, mes promenades dans la brousse. Cette documentation doit être en Guinée, où, â mon avis, ce trouves la culture la plus riche des Mandinka.
Très, très beau. Merci beaucoup. Je suis fascinée!
This just proofs with music how we are still all connected to Africa, is insane cuz when you listen music from lots of different genres or parts of the world you can still listen some of those ryhtms even if is a little bit
@@acepumpkin5442 The Europeans use african rhythms heavily. Every American and European music you hear, except "classical" music, has African rhythms at it's roots. I think you just want to be racist.

me 6/13/23! every morning
so glad i found this video again. kinda feels like it should be recognized as high art somewhere
Same thing😊and I totally agree with u
yes while the performers themselves starve?
The reason why everything has rhythm is because rhythm is the sound of order and out of order comes art without order is chaos. This film is a masterpiece.
Well said!
I absoluetely adore this video
@Lilith .J art with no order is just noise.
This film is addicting. The Malinke in particular are badly damaged by the slave trade. The film testifies to the great strength of the culture of this tribe, which has endured the worst persecution. Wonderful!!!!!
« Slave trade » is not the same intent as « persecution », please use precise words when touching tricky topics
@@sebastienh1100 In fact, the Malinke were persecuted, including by other tribes who also benefited from the slave trade and worked with the Europeans. After the persecution came the exploitation, in which various actors were able to earn a lot of money.
But the fact is that I am a musician and musicologist myself and wanted to pay the film a big compliment. You're being a little hair-splitting with my good intentions. For your information: www.rosalux.de/fileadmin/rls_uploads/pdfs/sonst_publikationen/atlasderversklavung2021.pdf

A dear Deaf friend of mine died last year - and in his FB page, he mentioned this video: 'Our ancestor’s true blood of line. Keep your rhythm a live'. Rest in Peace and in rhythm my friend. Miss you & love you to eternity.
Our very breath and respiration have a rhythm. We are inherently musical, rhythmic creatures.
Namaste
And sound is vibration

This made me tear up, I feel so proud to be human sometimes. It can be easy to be stripped away from that pride, but when I'm able to feel it, it's overwhelming
Yes there is so much in this short video that shows how a group of human beings is different from animals
I never fell to the "humans are a disease" bullshit. Much less to the animalization.
I have been using this video to begin my (non-major) Music class for 6 years. It all starts with rhythm and my class starts with this documentary!

BEAUTIFUL! I wonder if these people realize how much raw talent they have. Even the little ones, they seem to move and dance and play the music instinctually. The sense of community is so nice too!
Serious party time. They even take their hatchets to the dance floor.
Absolutely hypnotic, fastest 10 minutes of my life
Lorsqu’on fait du jogging sans les écouteurs on se rends compte qu’en écoutant le rythme de notre course on se fatigue moins. Des fois même avec les écouteurs le cerveau réplique automatiquement le rythme de notre course.
"Tout c’est des rythme". Le chants des oiseaux le matin, celui des sauterelles le soir même lorsqu’on mâche un chewing-gum on le fait à un rythme. Je vous souhaite une belle vie sous un rythme qui vous convient, a chacun son rythme ne suit pas celui de autres 🌹
life without music is not worth living.
These wonderful people and their rhythm have spread all over the world. It is in all our musical today
If you wonder how, jazz / blues -> rock and roll -> most of our current western music
My two and a half year old loves this video. He's really into all kinds of music and this video is one of his favorites. I guess rhythm speaks to all ages!
thats a nice compliment! I can see your child watching :) Honest audience...
Indeed!

In which part of Africa the malike tribe lives? They are really amazing.
Beautiful African people... blessings
We have very similar rythms in Cuba, there is a ritual called Bembé that i's like this, I feel some nostalgia when I hear this and I'm not African
But we do not use djembe, we usually use tumbadoras:

I don’t remember how many times I’ve come back to this over the years. But yea this is my culture y’all! Folks sometimes wonder why blacks are so good at rhythm; it’s because we’re born into it. As he rightly said, everything we do is rhythm. Nothing is done that is not rhythmic. Btw, we are told that music is rhythm, and rhythm is music. FYI, in African traditional dance, the drummer is not the one who dictates the rhythm, and it’s the dancer. If the dancer notices that the drummer is not picking up the pace, he’ll increase his movements in such a way that the drummer will understand that he’s falling behind. It’s the same way we do in church when playing drums with a lead voice of singers. Anyway, if music runs through our veins it’s because we’re born into rhythm.
Right. Rhythm gives the other parts of us the cue to go. The beat of the left foot signals the right. Without rhythm, we can’t know whose turn it is. That’s harmony. That’s Africa.
same here, i keep and keep coming back to this fine little film - i was not born into it, or if so, in a completely different way - i live in germany and i disvovered african music during the mid 70s, when i bought a record with traditional music on a flea market - at first i was disappointed, because it sounded so very alien to me, haha - but i was young and curious and i kept listening until i by and by began to understand a little here and there - then i had my first fave song and from there i went on - now i love the whole record - during the 80s and 90s we had a kind of wave of african bands and musicians coming over here and i saw countless of them live and was never disappointed - great musicans, brilliant singers and excellent dancers and performers, not a single fail, yessss... :-)
anyway, my perception of music is not too far from the one shown here, of course do i have a european approach - but the inspiration is there and it´s nice (btw. i have been a reggae musician for several decades)...
love and greetings from germany 🙋♂️
@@todo8328 that’s right!
@@friesiamans1966wow that’s great. So I guess you’ve heard Ladysmith Black Mambazo? They are my favorite South African Acapella group. Well, you’re a lucky man. Peace out!
@@marcustraore545 oh yes, i have heard them, they were among the first african artists that i heard, even before paul simon made them world-famous...
the second african record after the one with tradional music was one with south african jive - i loved it almost instantly and even started playing in that style - in the late 70s i even formed a band and we played on punk festivals and many punks jumped and gyrated merrily to that sound without even knowing what it was, haha...
some year ago or so i finally learned, that the sax player on that record, west nkosi, had also produced ladysmith black mambazo before they went to america - i knew them already from the third african record that i had "the soweto sampler" by the zensor, a guy from berlin, who went to soweto to record a load of garage bands...
i must say, i craved for african music, but in those days it was almost impossible to buy any here in germany...
the turning point came with king sunny adé´s live performance on german tv in 83 - hammer! after that african bands galore! saw him live two times, saw the mahotella queens live, saw omou sangaré live, sometimes i can hardly believe that this really happened.... :-)
i still wish to see rokia traoré live - you are a traoré? you are not related to her, are you?
nowadays my fave south african artist might be busi mhlongo, who i disvovered a few years ago - sadly she´s not alive anymore, she was such an impressive person and performer, i wish, i had seen her live in person...
to round it up, back in the early 90s i bought another south african record, a compilation of songs by different choirs like ladysmith black mambazo, mainly old shellac recordings, the oldest from somewhat 1911 or so, among them the original recording of "mbube" (=lion), after which the whole genre was named, but also some newer ones and ladysmith black mambazo... :-)
oh, boy, there is so much to tell, haha - one of my latest personal discoveries are blinky bill from nairobi ("jam now - simmer down"), and dr. namadingo ("mango") from malawi - when i looked for pictures of him i found out that he played here in germany in 2018! i wish i had known him then already - he was in hannover, not more than 30 kms from here - - - faint!
you are right: i am a blessed man, all this enriched my life!
thank you for your kind answer, it´s much appreciated... 🙋♂️
How can 7K people not like this? I feel like i want to have a beer with them and talk it out.

This video re calibrates me. Like medicine, healing and restorative. Thank you for that 🫶🏾🕯️🗝️
This reminds me of the year I spent in Guinea when I was a teen. The Malinke and Susu people stayed in my heart forever as the best prophets of the idea that music is life. ❤️💛💚
This video gives hints about why music was born from a world where mankind had no music.
Natural people who live with the Earth. The rythym of their life is amazing. I love traditional, tribal and natural sounds of the cultures of our World. Nothing false or fake about it. The energy of the movements draws you in. This was a real treat to find. Awesome.
Great comment, I totally agree 😊
Love this comment
Five years ago my music teacher showed me this video and I was very amazed. I haven’t done music for many years but I’m picking it up very recently. This video is a great inspiration for me to rededicate my life after depression👍
Wishing you all the best on your journey of healing. ❤
I was also depressed, lacking motivation and fearfull, really this has improved me
Incredible. What is also fascinating to me is the dance performance at the end really has echoes that you see are present in Capoeira
Just happen to wonder what we are, just a bit, and soon you realize we’re all African :)
(sorry for very likely utter fucked up English, frog team here…)
After 11 years, I hope every person featured in this film is doing fine now...
Get real. People don’t leave forever. That’s part of the rhythm of life.

And the funny looks just make me smile all the more. :D
yep, i do it while i listen to music while i do my hw
I actually spaced completely watching this. I feel like I traveled so far back, reunited with my anscestors and have all the answers to everything
im so glad i found this it was awesome!
I am making a film, a feature fiction, embodying nearly 70% of African culture traits and music. I don't know if that would interest you
Stunning. Could any one of us living today in the modern ways imagine how harmonious and pure and uplifting it would be to live this way? And the sheer genius of doing everything in rhythm!?! Absolutely tremendous? The village as one big family passing all this down through the ages? This is living a history in the present while creating a future. To live this way in such wisdom.....must be heaven on earth.
yep. Humanity has definitely taken a very wrong turn
Agree we veered off to the profit field and lost our natural souls
just think about how much rhythm you use in today's living ...barley, none , if any. Typing, speaking, walking. Not counting if you are a musician. People in the western culture rarely come together over rhythm unless it a concert. I mean it's such an important part of life and we simply threw it away. So sad.@@wilcoxdaniel9825

@@MrTPain Y though ?

Life used to be simple. We used to live in harmony with nature. For every small advance in society we have lost so much. We have lost not only the purity of nature, but the purity of community. We are afraid of each other now. I hope for a world where we can return to our tribal roots and live in harmony again, just as our ancestors once did. A society built on constant growth is a disease which will destroy the world if left unchecked.
We evolved on our ability to kill each 'other', we always were afraid of each 'other', we are evolved to fear the 'other'. People who do not fear the 'other' have come to realize they are the same as the 'other', meaning they are still afraid of things they still consider 'other'. To get over this fear is to either conquer instinct and evolution, or know as much about 'other' things as you can until they are no longer 'other'.
@@sirsnek6562 too simple... Your idea is too simple. It acts as if there are no other influences on human behavior than some sort of hard encoded program that tells us, "act this way, don't act that way".
I don't want to argue with you. I also don't want to spoil the truth that is in your statement.
Instead I just hope that you are someone who believes in humanity. Who thinks whatever barriers that we face are surmountable!

@@sirsnek6562 this isnt true at all, people exploited fear, we didn't evolve it. We weren't always afraid at all, that's white people crap
@@chompers11 I'm forced to rethink my generalized position on this due to what Kyu Kyu said, but what I said still holds true for wars accross time and place. Fear has been part of every war we know of, it is inevitble. Without fear of the other, there isn't hate of the other. And we *know* there has been LOTS of hate of the other, whether its:
the wars of the Byzantine Empire (anywhere that borders the mediterranian sea),
the wars of the Roman Empire (same thing but even more),
the wars of the Rashidun Caliphate (middle east, north africa, iberian pininsula (the reason spanish culture and language is slightly arabic)),
the wars of the Ottoman Empire (basically what rome had and a little more east, less west),
the wars of the Mongol Empire (holy hell they almost took over the world)
and ALLLL of the wars for territory and dominance that took place within the mountains surrounding 'China',
and all the native american wars (the ones between native americans, as well as the ones against europeans).
Every single one filled with hate for 'the less developed/entitled' and 'the barbaric invaders'. Fear was indeed exploited in areas where information was more easily shared (relevant right now), and that wasn't just euro. We may not have always been afraid, all the time, of anything we didn't understand, but we were always afraid of each other when we put on different jerseys... and for good reason: they were afraid too.

I keep returning to this, for anyone who wants to understand rhythm, or timing, this is music in it's best form, African music influences all music, we all came from Africa and even Classical artists learned music from the basics. The Rhythm of life itself, thanks to Africa!
Celtics have their music with that Stonehenge has an older age than the Pyramidvof Giza. The first rhythm as Walter Russell and perhaps Tesla would agree-the heart beat as the first rhythm we first listen.
@@Katharsis540 totally agreed on the heart, its our inner beat and it's why we walk or run or swim the way we do, we make sure the part of our body that is most important stays as steady as possible, the heart also gives our other senses an inborn metronome, so music and rhythms are the earliest forms of entertainment, before, after, or alongside humor?
That's exactly what I thought. Their beautiful culture of rhythm and music has changed the history of all music and dance.
@@Katharsis540 do you really think that African culture started in Egypt?
Music at the heart is the realest. Before black people where allowed to break through with their music in the mainstream, white america was just listening to shitty church music. Even the banjo is African. Also thank African rhythm and heart for rock n roll, jazz, blues, funk and literally all the great music of the 1900s. Something deep within us needed these beats that our African brothers brought with them through all the years of hard ship. Words can’t describe how this vid makes me feel
this has officially become my favourite short film of all time.
Incredible! I remember first time I saw it around 12 years ago, still mind blowing and one of the best things on rhythm ever seen! Greatly done 🔥🔥🔥
The song at 4:35 has an interesting message. It conveys the authority and dominance of the chief. And their are 3 characters in the song/story that all have a since of rhythm that coheres and harmonizes with each other. The first character is saying there’s not enough rice for the chief an the workers. The second character is the workers chanting to themselves that the day of work is almost over. And then you hear the chief approaching ominously and as the bass drum begins beating, he exclaims he doesn’t just want all the rice, he wants some damn sauce on his rice too, and he wants it all now. Then he starts commanding the workers, or perhaps slaves to bend down and work the damn earth, the days not over yet. Well I can’t assume how their village operates, but this story seems to suggest a time where this was the manner of things. When was this song composed and who created it? Was is made to show support of a positive chief or a tyrannical one? I’m wondering how they view the message of their songs. I’m sure their meanings are much more important to them than most songs are to us in the Western world (not to assume where you are).
Nie do końca wszystko jest tak jak piszesz, a przynajmniej z tego co ja wiem. Fraza sangbana mówi: Przynieście nam robotnikom miskę ryżu.

If anyone knows where it would be possible to watch the entire show. I would really like to see this complete report again. I recorded this on K7 VHS 25 years ago. Djembé Foly shows a beautiful side of life. I was particularly touched when he played at the edge of the water, water which responded to the sound with vibrations on the surface. Foly who showed us the effect of sound on water and explained to us that our body, made of 90% water, was necessarily strongly impacted by music. I was still young, these words touched me and had a significant impact on the way I wanted to go through this life... there are sometimes little words, little touches or here for example the sharing of knowledge linked directly to the nature of our existence to impact lives on the other side of the globe and at the same time allows the world not to forget the main beams of our house.

The Editor needs GRAMMY AWARDS
Not the editor, but the performers
@@semabera2485 u are right but rem these events were captured differently in each rythm n later combined together
@@semabera2485 No, the editor deserves it
@@semabera2485 Most of them are not performing. They are living. Different scenes are woven together seamlessly. All scenes are beautiful, but the one(s) who choreographed this video need to be applauded.
👍👍👍 all participants deserve to be honorated
Lil dude was going crazy on that tin can!
Someone should give him a drum
This video shows me how we coexist with nature through rhythm. The wind has a rhythm, water has a rhythm, trees and grass when the wind blows has a rhythm. The crackling of a fire has rhythm. Be in rhythm ❤️💛💚✊🏾🖤
This video has a lot of messages. Is until now the most important video I ever seen in you tube.
Thank you so much for posting.
Videos like these are the salt of the internet
