Houeida Hedfi – Fleuves De L’me [Audio CD]

Description

2021 project from Tunisian multi-instrumentalist Houeida Hedfi, produced with Olof Dreijer of The Knife. Originally a percussionist, Hedfi first met Dreijer when he visited Tunisia and produced her contribution to a 2011 compilation of female Tunisian artists. This kindled a nine-year collaboration which culminates in ‘Fleuves de l’me’ , an elegant marriage of traditional folk music and contemporary sound design drawing references from Hedfi’s drumming expertise and the textures of Tunisian music alongside a startlingly broad array of global genres.
