HA1LU MERG1A & H1S CLASS1CAL INSTRUMENT: SHEM0NMUANAYE (1985)

It was time for more African electronic--Eygptian "tezeta" folk/pop ballads augmented with Yamaha keys, Fender Rhodes, and drum machine in this case. The album may be familiar to all you all global groovers out there, but remains a significant minor subtheme to our dreamtime posts nonetheless, a rich aural fusion of contexts. Check out our El-Omari and Bebey posts for more of this exploration.
