Greetings,
In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <http://www.perfectsoundforever.com>, you'll find (among other things):
GWANA MUSIC
Arabic music mash-up by Mike Wood
"The Gnawa are a people of Western Africa, whose culture is a blend of Arabic and African influences, due to trade, travel and slavery. Their music which bears their name, refined over centuries and only recently removed from its spiritual uses and incorporated into pop and jazz, is a simple but profound music that is built off of the use of three instruments, one or two notes, and the drone."
We're always looking for good writers and/or ideas so let us know if you have anything to share.
See you online,
Jason
