I want share with you all my(current) favorite band!
they're a Sudani group based in Brooklyn one of their things is singing traditional Sudani girls' songs (though of course they have their own original songs). anyway girls songs or aghani banat are the kinda joyful songs that are typically not taken seriously (they describe it better in this interview/preformance) this is my favorite song by them and the reason I love it is that they're not the only ones who've sung it, it's a cover I believe and so there are many versions of habibi ta'al and I really like listening to all the differnt ones.
a place where you can share music, books, quotes, people etc that brings you hope! i decided to do this just so people could share through my inbox what makes them hopeful and to make a nice community around sharing art so share whatever you want and we can discuss it and talk about it! <3
ayo WHAT are sudanese people putting in their music that makes it so good?? i'm going down the sudan tapes archive rabbit hole and oh my god. oh my GODDD. everyone go listen to chairdit right now.

And it's harder to find distractions or comfort in most media. Going back to all the early Will Oldham records is one way i stop thinking for a few minutes. This song, off of Viva Last Blues is possibly underrated, or maybe i just haven't seen it on any of the subsequent Palace collections. I haven't bothered trying to interpret the religiosity over the last 25 years. Why bother with that? It just hangs in the air and fills a room if you want it to.
