Noura Mint Seymali | Tzenni | Album
Regular price
Tzenni, the 2014 international debut album by Mauritanian artist Noura Mint Seymali, is widely celebrated as a masterclass in modern "desert blues". Released via Glitterbeat Records, the album seamlessly pairs century-old Moorish griot traditions with psych-rock, funk, and Western pop instrumentation. Meaning "to spin" or "rotate" in Hassaniya Arabic—referring to a traditional whirling dance—Tzenni establishes Seymali as a premier ambassador of Mauritanian music.
