Sublime recordings from rural Niger. Two very different sides of Tuareg music – dreamy ishumar acoustic guitar sessions, and the hypnotic polyphonic tende that inspires it. Guitarist Fatou Seidi Ghali and vocalist Alamnou Akrouni lead the troupe, named after the village. Recorded in the open air studio of the desert. credits released February 24, 2016 Recorded in Illighadad, Niger 2014 Guitar: Fatou Seidi Ghali Tende: Talamnou Akrouni, Fatou Seidi Ghali et amis Production/Art: Christopher Kirkle
