Last Spring, Greenpeace and the group DJs for Climate asked musicians around everywhere to create a little inspiration for Earth Day. They scored work that samples sounds from nature. One person who contributed was Elodie Suzanne, or Dilo. She’s a jazz and electronic musician from Reunion, the French territory in the Indian Ocean. The track she composed for the project is called, “Yela Mama.”
