About this product

'GNAWA ELECTRIC LAUNE' is the magical collaboration between Moroccan Gnawa-master (maâlem) Rabii Harnoune and Frankfurt electronic producer V. B. Kühl. Recorded at Achim Sauer's 7V-Studio, collectively Rabii Harnoune & V. B. Kühl have produced an LP which represents entirely new territory, building a bridge from old to new, from Africa to Europe, and from to person to person. This melange of traditional North African Gnawa music and modern club sounds results in a fascinating debut, cross-cultural friction which is electric and otherworldly. InchGnawa music was exclusively played by families whose parents came from Sub-Saharan or Central African tribes to Morocco in colonial timesInch Rabii explains, Inchit was rare to be able to listen to Gnawa music on radio, so I started to collect rare live recordingsInch. Rabii's mastery at the Guembri, a three-string lute and Gnawa singing (a central aspect to the culture), would lead him to play world-class festivals in Essaouira, Fes, Marrakesh, and Casablanca - all spiritual centres for the genre. V. B. Kühl realised his own musical vision and ambition when he inherited his first ghettoblaster (boombox) and bought a four-track recorder Inchrhythm is deep in me, and although music is not my profession, the passion never stoppedInch. 1 Forest2 Yomali3 Light Out Night On4 Traveller5 Soyo6 Invitation To Dance7 Arabian Echo8 Sowiyi9 Baniya10 Negsha11 Zid l'Mal12 Jalaba Album Tracks 1.

Rabita Andalousa - Diwan - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Not Yet Reviewed

The excerpts presented in this CD by the ensemble Rabita Andalusa originate in the nuba Istihal, created in Fez in the XVIII century by Hajj Allal and Batla, and for this reason are included within the Kunnash of al-Ha'ik as one of the two strictly Moroccan nawbat among the original body of eleven. According to the typical taste of the embroidery, the last section of the nuba played by Rabita Andalusa (track 15) is an insiraf excerpted from the nuba Rasd ed Dhil, the other nuba of Moroccan origin. The last two pieces (tracks 16 and 17) belong to the repertoire of urban popular music (sha'abi) from the North of Morocco.Rabita Andalusa is the name given to an ensemble composed of soloists of the Larache Conservatory, the ancient Roman city of Lukhos where, during the golden age of Andalusian-Maghrebi civilization, the sultan Youssef 'Abdelhaqq El Mérini (1258-1281) reigned. The goal of this free-wheeling association of musicians is to give life to the Andalusian-Maghrebi musical repertoire without forgetting it's connections to the popular music of Northern Morocco or the practices of religious brotherhoods.
