"Gainsbourg percussions"

by Serge Gainsbourg

"Gainsbourg percussions" cover art

Serge Gainsbourg incorporates complex Afro-Cuban and African polyrhythms into his pop framework, heavily utilizing congas, bongos, and female backing choirs. He discards conventional drum kits entirely, phrasing his syncopated, often cynical vocals over dense, traditional percussion arrangements.
