Sahel Sounds - music recordings from subsaharan Africa
Currently based in Nouakchott, Mauritania and armed with a portable digital recorder and a guitar, I'm meeting and recording musicians - Hassinya folk musicians, Puular rappers, and the sometimes spontaneous music that one encounters while walking around the town.

The site and the project are in their infancy, but more expansive writing on the particulars of music in Mauritania, interviews with musicians, and (perhaps) a collaborative album of tracks (as I build the network in Nouakchott).
