Quick Facts Mi Canto, EP by Aziza Brahim ...

In an interview during the recording of the album, Aziza Brahim remarked the fusion of the traditional Sahrawi music with other African musical traditions (wolof, bambara...) and instruments (djembe, darbuka...), and the use of modern musical structures instead of the Haul traditional ones. The song who gave name to the album, "Mi Canto", was composed years ago by Brahim and Nayim Alal. The lyrics are in Hassaniya, except the song "Hijo de las nubes", which is sung in Spanish.[3]
