Also remember hearing about you over there, as "the connection"... I went to stay in Essaouira in '96 for a few weeks, but didn't make any connections w/ musicians; missed a festival by a couple weeks at which Guinia was playing — with Hamid & Brötzmann??!? maybe I've garnished my fantasy over the missing years in between then & now.Steve Dickisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05987951800367436773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192815591353027968.post-55349928382829307622012-02-26T22:37:00.115-08:002012-02-26T22:37:00.115-08:00Whatever happend to good ol' JH, anyways.

The Gnawa 6/8 rhythm is part of the same rhythmic universe as much Moroccan music. So if you get a Moroccan trap drummer playing with Gnawa musicians, the combination can be pretty natural.tim abdellahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11301786830697929252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192815591353027968.post-82253919706537387862011-08-14T22:20:40.178-07:002011-08-14T22:20:40.178-07:00Hmm, the file disappeared somehow.
