Dhafer Youssef - Street of Minarets (CD)

Details: "The topic of the album is first and foremost about traveling..." says Dhafer. "After traveling to the four corners of the world, in search of new sounds, here I sing differently and use vocal effects that I grew up with. Particularly the sound effect of megaphones for the call to prayer - hence the record title Street of Minarets." The rest of the guests took part in the magical journey too. Featuring musical guests such as Herbie Hancock, Marcus Miller, Dave Holland and more
