With a passion for preserving and promoting diverse musical traditions, Sahel Sounds brings together a curated collection of captivating sounds from this culturally vibrant part of Africa.

With an informative and authoritative approach, this e-commerce website allows music enthusiasts to explore and discover new sounds while supporting musicians from the Sahel region.

Nigerian composer Hama presents a groundbreaking album of traditional electronic desert folk songs, hovering somewhere between early 90s techno and synthwave. Nomadic herding ballads, ancient caravan songs, and ceremonial wedding chants are all re-imagined into pieces seemingly lifted from a Saharan 1980s sci-fi soundtrack or score to a Tuareg video game. With a deep love and respect, Hama effortlessly takes back and re-appropriates fourth-world ethnoambient music.
