Well, as you are asking, Ayn, I'd personally say that a song by L Cohen could go in a thread dedicated to L Cohen

Mind you, I notice that Janszoon put his L Cohen thread in MB's "General Music" section, which I suppose is one way to side-step any category doubts that people have.

Thanks for posting this great track - what a voice Oum has! I would 100% call this "world music", so I'm not sure why you have a doubt about that.

If you like some of the sounds coming out of Morocco, you might enjoy the group, Nass Marrakesh. In this clip there are two tracks, each with its own mood, its own type of beauty. First track might appeal if you like a bit hypnotic chanting (to which I plead guilty). Second track is a rambling song with a delicate touch of jazz, the kind of thing you can settle into and then hope it goes on forever:
