Never has a city held so much fascination for Westerners. Marrakech has drawn artists, writers, rock stars and film stars to its colourful, scent laden streets for many years.
Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles and the Rolling Stones were all inspired by their hedonistic visits to Morocco, and its capital still inspires an army of open-minded sonic explorers to seek out the trance inducing qualities of gnawa, or sample the otherworldy tones of the three-stringed guimbri.
With 'A Night In Marrakech', Metro attempt to replicate the barrage of creativity and street life in Marrakech. CD 1 shows the traditional side; an essential guide to where so many contemporary artists found their initial inspiration and a wonderful listening experience in its on right. CD 2 is a vibrant hybrid of electronic-meets-tradition, a strong reflection of what the younger Morrocans like to hear.
