This is incredible. Is the artist called Sephora Rai?
October 25, 2007
yes, artist is Sephora Rai. Alaoui refers to both the song title and the style of music. this is one of my favorite tracks from a 2 Cd compilation called ‘Maghreb Dance Party’ , 2006 Medina Music Distributin. 8 arab/north african DJs choose a selection of tracks from 8 maghrebi genres. 8 ambiances orientales pour faire la fête
ill blog more on this one later. glad you like!

this is Moroccan rather than Algerian, yes? love it.
to alert you to a new party series where Rai will be played, with Cumbia, Bhangra, and a whole LOT of Kwaito:
