Think global, act local. The mantra applies to government planning, the environment and business, but it’s also a defining feature of music—and few artists active today have embodied the concept longer than the French-Spanish singer-songwriter Manuel Malou. When he was eight he won a flamenco competition in Paris; as a teenager, he was in the vanguard of Spain’s post-Franco cultural awakening and, as part of Los Golfos, created an enduring catchphrase with the pop-flamenco hit ¿Qué pasa contigo, tío? (What’s Up, Dude?); in his twenties, he became a punk trendsetter. Malou’s early efforts at mix-matching places and sounds may have reflected circumstance more than design, but as a mature artist, moving between Spain, France and Colombia, weaving through some 20 albums as a solo and group artist, writing for himself and others and becoming an award-winning composer for film, his guiding passion has been rumba open to the four winds. His latest album, Unomundo (One World) is a monument to world rumba—with influences from raï, Bollywood, reggae, rock and funk—powering stories of love, wanderlust and leaders who compound rather than solve problems. The album covers a lot of ground: Title negation notwithstanding, No, No, No is about moving toward the horizon (video 1). Feet are as important to Malou’s music as voice and instruments, evident in the seductive Baylalo (Dance It, video 2). La Capillita (The Little Chapel) is a flamenco love letter to the artist’s mother. Musicians have always bridged cultures—flamenco itself echoes co-existence in medieval Iberia centuries after the marginalization or expulsion of its Roma, Jewish and Moorish creators. In a new age of hardening borders and distrust of migrants, Spain has emerged as one of Europe’s most welcoming nations, and Unomundo—honoring a home tradition while nurturing it with notes from afar—is a vibrant reminder that local and global are not opposite poles but layers of harmony.
