Baraka

Baraka is the boundary-pushing musical project of French producer and multi-instrumentalist Matthieu Duchesne, deeply rooted in Central Asian sounds and nomadic traditions. Focused on revitalizing Tajik-Persian heritage, his work blends ancient folk melodies, Sufi poetry, and Zoroastrian mantras with modern electronic beats and global bass influences. Recent releases like *Zarathushtra Mantras* and *Gole Sangam* showcase his commitment to preserving regional women’s musical traditions, while unexpected twists like *Hip-Hop Tribute to Ahmad Zahir* and *Samo (Remix)* reveal his playful fusion ethos. Baraka’s live performances, documented in *Live in Estonia*, transform spiritual chants and Pamiri mountain folk songs into immersive, dancefloor-ready experiences, acting as a bridge between ancestral Central Asian cultures and contemporary global beats.
