The "Fulani flute,"(or "tambin") referred to in this album, is specific to the Fouta Djallon highlands of Guinea (Conakry).It is a region dominated by the Peulh culture and ethnicity, and known as the "Chateau d'eau"(water tower) of West Africa, the source of three of the region's major rivers, the Gambia, the Senegal, and the Niger.

Combine Afro-exotic sounds of a Sahararian background with a Jazzy Harlem influence and you get the sweet vocal Worldbeat sound of Fatima.
