Tell me next time, I'll drop everything and fly out
Avatar 7:54pm
tim abdellah:

Yeah! Nasro ended up living in SF for a minute in '99-'00. I did a couple other gigs with him after that. Pretty great, but there just wasn't/isn't much of a market for North African performance out there. He eventually moved to Orlando, which I'm sure worked out better for him.
Avatar 7:55pm
tim abdellah:

BTW, this Hasni is punchy! A lot of his stuff is in that sentimental vein, which I can only take in small doses. This is great, though!
Avatar 7:57pm

"They said Hasni died"
Avatar 7:58pm
tim abdellah:

I've heard that ballad/slow jam style of rai referred to as "rai sentimentale"
Avatar 7:59pm
tim abdellah:

Also, Warda = "flower" or "rose". Also a given name, like "Rose" in English.
Avatar 8:00pm
northguineahills:

Raz Mesanai once dj'ed a rai set in tonic, I went and recorded about five minutes from the bathroom, due to the great muffled reverb in there, and used the samples for my pan-africain anticolonial interpretation of Pierre Henry's "variations pour une porte et un soupir,"
