Tishoumaren
Actually not urban at all Tishoumaren is an African kind of bluesrock. Created and played in rural Sahara it is likely to be appreciated by fanatical indies, rock critics and Robert Plant. Being the music behind one of the most obscure teen-age rebellions in the world it is perfect for exploitation by hipsters who couldn't care less about the genocide taking place against the musicians.
A popular "pilgrimage" for those who really want to shun western corporativism is to visit the annual "Le Festival au Désert". It is great musical event where they for a while can relax with likeminded westerners in the shade of sand dunes.
