Walid Rouissi

Tunisian singer/songwriter and oud player. Walid Rouissi has created a modern hybrid style based on two totally different worlds of music. Afro-Arabic rhythm serves as the bases, combined with European sound, producing a new kind of "Dance Music". Not authentic RAI, but a mixture of Reggae, Folklore and Jeel music. The origin of his music is found in Calypso and various Arabic-African as well as Latin-American music forms.
