Back in Brooklyn with a CIAFRICA woodcarving + at least a full day’s worth of north African music. Not to mention hours of interviews, but that’s another story.
Here’s new Moroccan Berber music from Hafida. Henna, check. autotune, check. animated butterflies, check. If you like these 2 songs you’ll like the entire self-titled album, it’s pretty much an extended jam.
And no, dear Hafida never turns off her autotune. If that’s not love, what is?

I first got the notion of Berber music with excessive amounts of Auto-Tune when I saw this video:
