A compilation of the most popular music circulating the Sahara desert on the unofficial network of cellphones -- where mp3s are stored, played, and traded in very literal peer to peer bluetooth transfers. The contemporary West African sound from the new school of DIY production with little or no commercial release outside of their locales, from spaced out Tuareg Autotune, Ivorian Club Jams, Mauritanian Synth, and Malian Hip Hop electro. Collected from memory cards by and released on cassette, the vinyl comes after a years plus of tracking down the composers.

It’s pretty unusual I thought. The link is to a playlist, it’s nine tracks in total, though the embedded player defaults to playing the first track you can get at the full list of tracks through the controls, or you can get at the original link when you quote…

Back in my japa meditation days I would listen to this on my way to work. Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare...
Jimmy Buffet and Bob Marley. What else would one listen too while laying on the beach in the gulf shores? 🏖

The start gives it all away: "this is going to be amazing"
Baden Powell is amazing on guitar. I have a friend, who is one of Holland’s best flamenco guitarists, and he turned me onto Baden Powell.
Ah memories of the 70s

Yes but they were Belgian, not Dutch. And Belgian cheese is not as good as Dutch cheese.

I used to tell people Björk is my spirit animal. I still do.
