Neg Nago - Voodoo Site
Est-ce une religion ou de la sorcellerie? Un culte ou de la magie? Ce documentaire, tourné à Montréal et en Haïti, retrace l'histoire du vaudou et en explique les pratiques. Le réalisateur a mis deux ans à gagner la confiance des adeptes de cette religion. Sa patience a porté fruit, puisque « Le Vaudou », en évitant toutefois le piège du sensationnalisme, nous montre d'authentiques cérémonies et même un véritable zombi.
Le documentaire nous fait voir cette religion de l'intérieur, d'abord en tant que système religieux, ensuite en tant que système social voyant au bien-être physique et mental des gens et à l'application de la justice. On assiste aujourd'hui, en Haïti, à une renaissance du vaudou comme affirmation de l'âme noire, des racines africaines de ce peuple. « Le Vaudou » nous permet de mesurer l'importance de ce culte dans un pays qui compte plus de 50 000 prêtres et prêtresses vaudou.

the sensational Vodou sounds of Lataye
Lataye represents the spiritual essence of all the positive elements found in the Vodou spirituality. This new band has embarked on a journey by creating a new musical style stemming from traditional Haitian Vodou melodies and rhythms.
Daniel 'Dadi' Beaubrun and his sister Marjorie (former founding members and producers of the 1992 Grammy Award nominated group Boukman Eksperyans) have joined forces with Sheila and Alex Tanisma to bring Haiti's Rasin Mizik (Roots Music) to new heights.
Lataye's music is a dynamic mix of driving Haitain Vodou rhythms played on a variety of musical instruments coupled with astute arrangements and splendid choral hooks. Without losing the soulful essence and spiritual basis of traditional Haitian music, Lataye created music which expresses change, unity and love, combining both aspects of Vodou which is the spiritual transformation agent in the social and artistic component of coming together in unity.
Lataye is led by Daniel 'Dadi' Beaubrun, a well known composer, songwriter, producer, singer and musician who was the bass and guitar player of Boukman Eksperyans for twenty years. His unique musical style blends traditional Haitian Vodou rhythms with rock, pop and blues and has created a revolutionary musical sound for Haiti known as Rasin Mizik. This original style has taken Vodou music out of the countryside and into the cities of Haiti while bringing international recognition and acclaim to Vodou ceremonial music and dance. Today, this unique sound has earned its own distinctive niche in World Music for Haiti just as the Reggai freedom songs of Bob Marley have done for Jamaica.
Lataye is a fusion of Daniel 'Dadi' Beaubrun's unique sound with the musical influences of the latibonit rhythm Alex and Sheila Tanisma's home town. Alex and Sheila are spiritual leaders and Potomitan (the center pole in Peristyle where all spirits descend) of Lataye. They are both initiate members of two of the most prestigious Lakou in Haiti (Lakou Soukri and Lakou Souvenans). As vodou priests they have providd their services throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Martinique, Gaudeloupe and Japan. This roaring sound is then accented with Marjorie Beaubrun's passionate vocals, which have given her a fine reputation as a songwriter, versatile vocalist and accomplished dancer. Her distinctive voice pulsating dance style and hypnotic charisma keep the audience under her spell.
The gathering of these talented artists brings forth a new sound and vision which stand out as one of Haiti's most vibrant representation of African Diaspora fusion. The musical mix builds propulsive peaks which engage the mind, body and spirit completely.
Hearing the music of Lataye is an engaging experience, seeing them live is definitely something else! Ayibobo!> Daniel Beaubrun aka 'Dadi'
