The sBas-yul are the secret lands, the hidden, the promised lands in the tradition of the Tibetan countries.They are situated in regions hard of access, hidden behind walls of ice, protected by dense forests and possessed of myterious powers. sBas yul music is an invitation to travel in these lands with their pagan rituals, dionysiac danses and seasonal orgies. The soft and tireless percussions, the hallucinating guitars and the wonderful female arabian voice of Rajae Essefiani lead us toward uncommun sonorous dreams.
