Hi Buharry,

Great piece of work. Many thanks for taking the initiative and putiing in
the energy to popularise this aspect of our culture on the Web. A great
place to tune into instead of P1 while at work.

Best wishes for you and the girls,
Thanks,
Sidibeh

>
>  I have been working on this project for a while and have on more than
> one occasion wanted to pull my hair out due to frustration caused by
> technical difficulties. Raki Web Radio is dedicated to Gambian music
> and is a 24 hour online station bringing you the best Gambian
> selections. The radio blends old and new, traditional and contemporary
> Gambian music. It features Sererr, Wollof, Mandinka, Fula etc. music.

> On the old music side, artists such as Marie Samuel Njie, Ya Sirra
> Mbye, Gelewarr, Super Eagles, Lalo Kebba Drammeh, Efri Mbye,
> Ifangbondi, Mamudu Susso and many more. are featured. On the
> contemporary side, artists such as Dancehall Masters, Pepperhouse Crew,

> Jaliba Kuyateh, my very self and many more are featured. The selections
> are blended to bring you joyful memories and cause you to appreciate
> what Gambian music has to offer.

> The radio is currently configured for forty simultaneous listeners. I
> am still trying to determine the maximum number of listeners who can
> listen at the same time without the quality suffering. The radio can
> broadcast live programs. Since I am still doing some administrative
> work, the radio might once in a while these first days be off the air
> some short periods. Send suggestions and report technical issues to my
> address. I hope you enjoy the radio. I also hope that Gambian music
> will win hearts and minds and bring about the realisation that Gambian
> musicians really play some nice music. They just need support. Thanks.
