Sussan Deyhim / Richard Horowitz - Desert Equations

Electro-Persian excursion by ethno-techno duo consisting of Iranian vocalist Sussan Deyhim and US electronic music composer Richard Horowitz. A groundbreaking album, dominated by Sussan Deyhim's sublime voice, surging from behind virtual dunes and electronic oases, which prompted writer Paul Bowles to wonder: 'Was this composed under the influence of Mahjoun?' Having heard this amazing album, Bernardo Bertolucci entrusted most of the original score for the Sheltering Sky to Horowitz (who subsequently obtained a Golden Globe for it), an appropriate move also because Richard had become friends with Paul Bowles during his long stay in Morocco.
