After making a name for himself, he returned to Guinea and recruited musicians and dancers \nfor the ensemble that gradually became Fatala. Their instrumentation includes traditional drums, \nbalafon, kora, and electric guitars, and they perform traditional material with no European influences, \nsaying that Europeans try to copy African rhythms without keeping them African.
