Bleep

Field recordings of Sahelian guitar work courtesy of the Sahel Sounds gang. Spanning wedding rock to politically charged folk, the nine tracks on this compilation take in many different moods and atmospheres though retaining the same unique dreamy feel. From the opening chords of ‘Migrid Noulhawan’ you know you’re in for a treat, a deeply meditative and hypnotic piece reminiscent of the deepest French chanson. SS continue to navigate their way through the history of the Sahelian region to spread the gospel of this amazing music. Whether a budding ethnomusicologist or a casual folk song admirer, this one is special.
