Mopti is a town and an urban commune in the Inner Niger Delta region of Mali. The town is the capital of the Mopti Cercle and the Mopti Region. Situated 460 km northeast of Bamako, the town lies at the confluence of the Niger and the Bani Rivers and is linked by an elevated causeway to the town of Sévaré. The urban commune, which includes both Mopti and Sévaré, had a population of 114,296 in the 2009 census.
Mopti lies on the right bank of the Bani River, a few hundred meters upstream of the confluence of the Bani with the Niger River. Between August and December when the rivers flood the Inner Niger Delta, the town becomes a series of islands connected by raised causeways. During this period the only road access to the town is along a 12 km causeway that links Mopti to Sévaré. Mopti lies to the west of the Dogon Plateau and is 66 km northwest of Bandiagara and 76 km north-northeast of Djenné. The town is the capital of the Mopti Region and the administrative center of the Mopti Cercle.
TAM TAM es un ensamble de percusión africana y vientos creado en Buenos Aires en 2006, con el fin de experimentar nuevos sonidos en base a los ritmos tradicionales del oeste de África (Guinea, Senegal y Mali) tales como: Kassa, balakulanya, Moribayassa y Gidamba, entre otros. La inclusión de vientos (saxo, trompeta, flauta, trombón) y guitarra es consecuencia de la búsqueda de fusionar dichos ritmos con melodías propias del jazz o el funk en un acercamiento hacia el movimiento afrobeat, surgido en África en los años 60/70.
L'Orchestre Régional de Mopti fut fondé par Sory Bamba. Nombreuses ethnies qui cohabitent dans cette riche région du delta du Niger, et aussi par la personnalité du chef d'orchestre Sory Bamba. Il s'est fait notamment le chantre de la culture Dogon, sans parler du répertoire Peul, prédominant dans cette région.

MOPED - FOLLOW
this time in the evening
i can see the shadows stretching to the edge of the world
i fell off it once, into your arms
and i've never felt so out of this world
(you take me so far) so far away from here
even though my feet don't move my heart is with you there
and it's not of this world (anymore)
and it's not gonna stand still (anymore)
i will follow you
i will follow you
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i'm ready to leave
without saying a word
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
so here i go again here i go again
i've come to the end of my strength when i thought my strength would never end
i've come to grips with my _____________
i can see you ________ my weakness
i know you've got me do this that's exactly why
i will follow you
i will follow you
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i'm ready to leave
without saying a word
i will follow you
and there's no greater fight than the daily fight to conquer myself
and there's no wonder why i can't get by by myself
and there's no question now i've got to stay by your side
if i'm ever gonna stay alive i've got to (i've got to)
i will follow you i will follow you
i will follow you i will follow you
i will follow you i will follow you
i will follow you i will follow you
(intrumental)
i will follow you
i will follow you
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i'm ready to leave
without saying a word
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i will follow you
i will follow you
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i'm dying to live
you make me come alive
i will follow you
