Tassilli Players Tassilli Players is a floating pool of musicians centred around ex Cosmics and Harare Dread member Dave Hake. Responsible for 5 LP's in as many years The Players have forged a strong working relationship with production team Zion Train who have taken care of the sounds on all of their recorded output. Dave Hake is a much travelled musician who has spent extended periods in Spain and North Africa, worlds away from his original stomping ground of Coventry where his contemporaries included the Specials, Selector making the Two Tone label close to his heart. After a brief sojourn into punk whilst living Manchester, cleaning sewers, Mr Hake spread his wings and set off out into the brave new world. A spell in a Kibbutz, a stay with the Bedouin in the Sinai Desert, a quick exit from an embattled Israel, a Greek Island 'Desert Island Dick' for a time followed by a period of rest and refreshment in Ireland where the power of Ben Evnagh inspired the idea of the Tassilli Players. The journey back to London took him across the path of a man with a horn and Dave Hake Trumpetman was born. With Hake as musical director and Zion Train at the controls any Tassilli Players excursion into version is going to be a trip worth taking. The music is rooted in conventional dub music but more often than not takes a trip into the more experimental and diverse worlds that influence Dave Hake's musical world - from Jamaican ganja fields to Sowetan speakeasies taking a diversion through the harmonic overtones of Phil Niblock is one of the routes that Dave may take on his journey to a finished recording, meaning that a unique sound is guaranteed. |
