Formed in 1994, this band has members from Sudan, Algeria and Sweden. Their album needs a little more production work at times, but certainly holds up as an honest document of their early work.

A funky-jazzy Balkan style mixture with other instrumentalists from the Riverdance project. The occassional vocals are a little too wild for me, but it is an interesting fusion.

Substantially a pop album geared for the US market. She sings with electronics and traditional instruments.
