A Taste of Algeria’s Musical Heritage with Algerian Vinyl

Beschreibung:

Mounira, known as Algerian Vinyl, is a Paris‑based vinyl collector and DJ who has devoted herself to exploring and sharing Algeria’s rich and diverse musical heritage. For this set she draws from her personal collection of original vinyl records, mostly from the 1980s and 1990s, guiding listeners through the country’s sounds—from raï and chaâbi to kabyle, chaoui and tuareg rhythms—and revealing the depth and variety of Algerian music. MAJ’s mission is to share high‑quality vinyl‑only mixes, but copyright restrictions mean that YouTube automatically monetizes the songs in this mix, directing ad revenue to copyright owners and leaving the channel with no income from 99.9% of its yearly viewership. To continue producing these mixes and maintain the studio, MAJ seeks support from viewers, encouraging them to consider backing the channel on Patreon or making a one‑time donation.
