Music of Moroccan Origin. The Band is MoMo, the Music is DaR, the Vibz are International
MoMo - Moroccan roots on a club tip, dance music on a global vibe. MoMo succeed in fusing deep traditional music drawn from Gnawa and Berber traditions with trance, techno and even deep house as they play over studio beats created from their own music.

Addictively hypnotic naturally created dance beats, scintillating club rhythms interspersed with the searing sounds of the mondo and the reverberation of the bass sintir atop matchless intuitive and rhythm hard percussion and mesmeric vocals that give the lie that rap and the blues must have come out of Morocco! !
MoMo's Sound of the Moors project playing over slaamin' beats on a dance/techno/dub vibe creates a whole new club scenario - DaR. MoMo are definitely set to do for Morocco what Bob Marley did for Jamaica!
