The Rough Guide To The Music Of Sudan is bursting with the diverse and rich music that has emerged from Africa’s largest country, from desert rhythms echoing a camel’s stride to savannah woodland harmonies. This album offers you an overview of a flourishing musical culture – including trance drumming, hip-hop, orchestral music, Arabic love songs and spicy horn sections – and incorporates influences from Egypt to Congo and from the White Nile to the Blue Nile.
