Description

With Ocho Manos, Tome 2, Karim Baggili continues his musical exploration centered on the instrument closest to his heart: the guitar. This new album is entirely devoted to it, a tribute to the countless hours spent practicing, searching and refining his art.

It brings together Latin, flamenco and cinematic influences in the service of a vivid, evocative and deeply personal music. The imprint of the flamenco guitar — an aesthetic that has always nourished Karim’s musical universe — is naturally present throughout the album. Faithful to his artistic identity, Karim Baggili also incorporates voices, which he uses as an additional color. They bring intensity and texture, reinforcing the emotional depth of the compositions.

Surrounded by his close musical companions, he delivers an album that is both dynamic and sensitive, where virtuosity and emotion are fully devoted to his creative passion.
