All copies are HAND-MADE, silk-screened by C. Julien (Marga studio). Produced by Mambo Chick for Symbole Records.

Symbole presents the first ever release of Patrick Jean-Marie's 'Atika – LIVE !'

Made from the original master tape, recorded in mono during a TV Live Show on RFO in GUADELOUPE, 1982. A real miracle these moment were captured and this fragile magnetic tape have survived !

The no ‘music studio’ conditions and spontaneous mood with lots of improvised sequences gives a unique feeling of the vibrant & silent dialogues between musicians, crossing dimensions. The Jean-Marie’s brothers as their top!

All tracks composed & arranged by Patrick Jean-Marie
(Except ’De Bougies’ composed by Daniel Jean-Marie
