Nerduban - Psychedelic Afro Rock (1972) [Full Album]

Подробнее о видео

Unearthed after nearly five decades, Nerduban's legendary lost album "Blue Desert" finally sees the light of day. Recorded in a makeshift studio in Tangier during the summer of 1972, only 5 test pressings were ever created before the master tapes mysteriously disappeared.

This rare psychedelic gem blends North African rhythms with fuzzed-out guitars, analog synthesizers, and hypnotic percussion to create a sound that was decades ahead of its time. The story goes that founding members Mehmet and Ibrahim assembled local musicians and a traveling ney player to create this unique fusion of psychedelic rock and traditional Moroccan sounds.

The album's history is as mysterious as its sound - from power outages during recording to border tensions that prevented their Algerian tour, "Blue Desert" captures a specific moment in music history that almost vanished completely until a collector discovered one of the original pressings in a Casablanca market stall in 2019.

Restored from the original vinyl with minimal processing to preserve the authentic analog warmth and natural imperfections.
