I featured Tallawit Timbouctou on a Tuareg playlist several years ago. www.holidayatthesea.com/music/tuareg...

From the archive - this gorgeous record from Northern Mali of takamba music by Tallawit Timbouctou. This is the music that long ruled the region, performed at festivities, blasting out of dusty boomboxes, and beaming out from village radio stations. tallawit.bandcamp.com/album/hali-d...

Malian Balani shows are a lot of fun for everyone - you can improvise your own dance or even moonwalk like this guy does! Find more vids of his at @/moussadance223 on TikTok #balani #malimusic #malidance #saheldigitaldigging #sahelsounds

‘Falaw’ (2019) by Malian producer/rapper Luka Prod blends storytelling, field recording and acoustic instrument-sampling with a conscious rap attitude.He touches on delicate personal experiences such his childhood, becoming a father or losing a dear friend. lukaproductions.bandcamp.com/album/falaw
