Production Disco Presente - OUDADEN (2004?)


More tranquil Berber sounds from Southern Morocco. Oudaden are one of the most popular groups in the region, their music can be heard in many of the shops and stalls in teir hometown of Agadir, and throughout the lush Souss Valley and up into the Anti-Atlas mountains. I love their reverb heavy, meditative music.

This great video was filmed in the breathtaking surroundings of the Anti-Atlas mountains, the perfect setting for their thoughtful songs:



Tracklist:

01 Tafokt Ortbadlt
02 Guighn Sik Afouss
03 Artahnout Ayseyad
04 Ibi Omalo Talatine
05 Sidi Rbi Laafou

Get it HERE.

And if you like this album you can pick up another one over at Awesome Tapes from Africa.
