Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut album from Tunisian producer Sofyann Ben Youssef re-imagines traditional North African music through the lens of heavily distorted, futuristic electronics. Featuring vocalists from across the Maghreb region, the project seamlessly fuses the rhythmic trance of the TR-808 drum machine with ancient, culturally rich melodies.
