Thanks, Sir_Cactoos. How are you? Are you in lockdown where you live?

Yes, some purists don't like that blend of traditional folk with electronica; for me though, the problem is not outrage at mixing genres, but the fact that there is just so much of it. In the end it can get boring.

^ I liked this track, and the fun video. "The folklore of non-existing nations" reminded me of course of Dead Can Dance, who I'm sure you have heard of.

Greetings, Lisnaholic!

Yes, we have some sort o lockdown and it is actually forbidden to go anywhere but stores, pharmacies and workplace. I do my work remotely from home, so it is not a big deal to me. How about You, are you save?

Oh yes, DCD is well known for me and I always enjoy listening to their records. Under current circumstances, it is even more than welcome.

Amaria Hamadalher - Music from Saharan WhatsApp 05

For the year of 2020, Sahel Sounds presents "Music from Saharan WhatsApp." Every month, we'll be releasing an EP from a musical group in the Sahel. Every album will be recorded on a cellphone, transmitted over WhatsApp, and uploaded to Bandcamp, where it will live for one month only. Available for pay as you want, 100% of the sales will go directly to the artist or group. After one month, the album will be replaced by another one, until the end of the year.

Amariam Hamadalher comes from Goufat, a small village outside of Agadez, Niger, a city renowned as the center of modern Tuareg guitar. Playing guitar for over 15 years, Amariam has the distinction of being the first and only woman guitarist in the region. In 2018 she joined the collective Les Filles de Illighadad, and has traveled around the world.

This track gets lost in all the Ipanema's out there. Like a buttery blanket wrapping you up.

A couple of good electric kantele players.
