What do Malian sound practitioners want and need to learn so as to take their career to the next step? This paper presents the background, pedagogy, organization, and feedback of a professional audio workshop for 24 participants in Bamako from February 28 to March 5, 2022. In partnership with the Tadiazt Association led by Malian-Belgian Abdallah Ag Amano and two highly experienced instructors, namely Bukinabe Éliézer Oubda and Canadian James Clemens-Seely, we delivered training sessions focused on teaching the scientific knowledge and technical skills that would allow participants to move beyond the patronage of the Global North music industry within West Africa when it comes to the mixing and mastering stages of internationally renowned Malian musicians’ productions.
