Afrobeat Bass Art & Groove

CESAR ANOT on SoundBetter

Bassist for world-class artists, delivering soulful Afrobeat grooves and artistic collaboration to make your music come alive.

I’m CESAR ANOT, a professional bassist, composer, and arranger from Côte d’Ivoire. With over 25 years of experience in studio recording and live performance, I craft groovy, soulful, and expressive bass lines that bring life, depth, and emotion to every track.
As a teenager, I co-founded the Ivorian group WOYA, quickly gaining recognition across Africa. Since then, I’ve collaborated with world-renowned artists, including Tony Allen, Hank Jones, Cheick Tidiane Seck, Macy Gray, Amp Fiddler, David Murray, Questlove, Mory Kanté, and Lucio Dalla.
For 25 years, I have been a key part of the Corsican group I Muvrini, earning two gold records (Alma and Umani) and helping shape their international sound.
I offer:
- Custom bass lines — tailored to your song’s groove and emotion
- Remote studio sessions — delivered in professional, high-quality audio
- Song development & arrangements — supporting artists in shaping their sound
- Artistic collaboration — from pre-production to final touches, bringing your vision to life
My playing blends Afrobeat, Soul, Funk, World, and Jazz, always focused on tone, groove, and connection with the song. I aim to make every note serve the music and move the listener.
Let’s make your track groove, feel alive, and resonate with your audience.
