Just so you can get a feel of what it's like;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raï

Raï is a music style that originated in Algeria in the 1930s. It appealed to young people who sought to modernize the traditional Islamic values and attitudes. Regional, secular, and religious drum patterns, melodies, and instruments were blended with Western electric instrumentation.






So far my favorite Rai artist is Rachid Taha. I also listen to Khaled, Cheb Mami, and Douzi but my two favorites are Khaled and Rachid (I adore rachid with the power of a thousand suns)

I'm just wondering if there's any Rai fans on these forums, too. :ohoho:
