The Original Dhaanto

Recommended Posts

What do you mean by "original"? It still looks and sounds a lot like this, only now there are some dhaanto songs that sound more like pop music (

was the big hit this year). But traditional dhaanto songs are still popular.

Be one with the nature childeren

Intan ciida galin caana wada dhana

Anigu cid hayn ciida hara digeed baan dhex carayaa

codad baan maqla ma libaax ba cartami ma codkaagi baa ma anigaad igu cabsin

caadilow allow calaf wa mar qudha eeh yarki aan calmaday intan ciida galin cunta wada cuna

There are different types of Dhaanto, namely the Guuxa, which came into existence in the mid 1970s. Today, the Guuxa is the most performed Dhaanto, despite it being not the original type of Dhaanto that was played for centuries. The two Dhaanto that I posted is how the "real" or original Dhaanto was and should be played.

 

Ali Dhaanto iyo these other folks doing Dhaanto in the diaspora or in Jigjiga are just playing the Guuxa Dhaanto in different ways mixed with beautiful musical rhythms.
