Chaâbi Sweet Spot

At the end of the 1980s, the label Sawt el Ânq (انتاج صوت العنق) released this little-known record by a Moroccan collective, most likely originating from Casablanca. The collective performs chaabi - a style of North African folk music that can be heard in cafes and restaurants, during weddings and festivals. In the palette of instruments used in this style, you can find both traditional instruments like strings and darbuka, as well as more modern instruments like electric guitar and electric organ.
