Sahrauis: The Music of the Western Sahara

Sahrauis: The Music of the Western Sahara is a three-disc box set of Saharawi music, published by the Spanish label Nubenegra. It was the first compilation of such songs released in the United States. The producers of the album travelled to the Sahrawi refugee camps and spent 14 days with the artists to record the CDs 1 & 2 of the compilation, with the aim of recording with the finest musicians and singers the traditional Sahrawi music (Haul) of the past and present.

CD 1, entitled "A Pesar De Las Heridas" ("Despite All Wounds") features Sahrawi women (including figures as Mariem Hassan or Aziza Brahim) singing Haul songs, while in CD 2, entitled "Sáhara Mi Tierra" ("Sahara My Land"), the lyrics are mostly interpreted by men, including guitarist Nayim Alal and Mahfoud Aliyen. CD 3, entitled "Polisario Vencerá" ("Polisario Will Win"), is a re-edition of a 1982 album by the Sahrawi band Chahid El Uali, which included singers as Mariem Hassan, Teita Leibid, Mahfoud Aliyen and Hadhoum Abeid.
