$15.00

Event Navigation

This intimacy of Imarhan’s sound is no coincidence. In the language of the Kel Tamashek people, „Imarhan„ means ‘the ones I care about’ – Iyad Moussa Ben Abdurrahman (aka Sadam), Tahar Ag Kaddor, Kada Ag Chanani, Hicham Ag Boubas, Hachim Ag Abdelkader and Habibalah Ag Azouz all grew up near each other in Tamanrasset, Southern Algeria, in a Tuareg community of Northern Malian descent. The giant divide between their spiritual home and physical home is heard in their tracks: the funkier groove of Western Africa, the more empty, subtle tones of Saharan Traditional folk music and the fire and romance of Algerian Rai music. No other Tuareg release to date has had such a variance of rhythms, tempo and feeling.
