Since the late 1970s, Groupe RTD has been the house band of Djibouti&#039;s national radio. But their raw hypnotic sounds were never heard outside Djibouti until very recently. In tiny Djibouti, the music industry is entirely in the hands of the government, and no foreign party was allowed to work with Djibouti&#039;s artists.<\/p>\n<p>Groupe RTD consists of Djibouti&#039;s top talent: some band members are past 60, the youngest member is 20-year-old singer Asma Omar. At Amsterdam Roots they will bring their raw and unique sound as only heard on radio in Djibouti until recently: a mix of East African hypnotic synthesizer melodies, Bollywood vocal lines, offbeat reggae guitar licks and tight jazz horns<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-260231\" style=\"height: 20px; clear: both; width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-147854 kc_text_block\"><p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9OGRsVBdXB8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-333240 kc-title-wrap \">\n\n\t<h3 class=\"kc_title\">Where?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-439193 kc_text_block\"><p>Oosterpark \/ World Stage<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-595525 kc-fancy-button-wrap\">\n\t<div class=\"kc-fancy-button-inner  light-scheme-el\" data-parallax='{\"y\": 0}'>\n\t\t<a class=\"kc-btn line-link\" href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/A6zc1o1w2H41Dsnu9\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"View on Google Maps\">\n\t\t\tView on Google Maps\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-531872 kc_col-sm-4 kc_column kc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"kc-col-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-324851 kc-parallax-el \"><div class=\"kc-parallax-wrap\" data-parallax='{\"y\": 0}' ><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-561629 kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamroots.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Groupe-RTD-e1652715982337.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"\" \/>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":4375,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"class_list":["post-4374","meloo_events","type-meloo_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","meloo_events_cats-oosterpark-en","meloo_events_cats2-music"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Groupe RTD: Dancing Devils of Djibouti - Amsterdam Roots Festival<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamroots.nl\/en\/events\/groupe-rtd-dancing-devils-of-djibouti\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Groupe RTD: Dancing Devils of Djibouti - Amsterdam Roots Festival\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Groupe RTD: Dancing Devils of Djibouti Free entrance dinsdag 01\/01 dinsdag januari 1 2030 in Place, City name Start: 21:00 East Africa&#039;s best-kept musical secret: Djibouti\u2019s national radio &amp; television orchestra It is one of East Africa&#039;s best kept musical secrets.
