Début des années 70. Le choc pétrolier n'a pas encore eu lieu. Bientot la fin de la période de prospérité appelé les 30 glorieuses. Nasser est mort en laissant un pays exsangue. Pourtant Alger continue à prolonger la torpeur révolutionnaire. Alger est la Mecque révolutionnaire mondiale. Les "idiots utiles" occidenta...ux ne jurent que par le Ché, Cuba et Alger. L'arabisme bat son plein dans les médias algériens. Pendant que les médias officiels diffusent Oum Khaltoum, chanteuse de cours du régime de Nasser, et est présentée comme une diva (malgré des textes digne de Dalida) la rue fredonne la chanson "Chenoud" de Nourredine Chenoud. C'est le début de la déferlante. D'autres suivront. Idir, les Abranis Djamal Allam. Pas de doute quelque chose est en train de changer...

Timnadine by Hmad Laarossi :
Imazeghen principles reflect strongly throughout IMODDA’S lyrics, as not only preserving but actively engaging in their culture is a primary aim of the group.  With their traditional songs, IMODDA helps keep the Tamazight (Berber) language alive and preserve the identity of the Imazeghen (Berbers) in North Africa.  Many of their songs speak about their history, traditions, and nomadic life.  For example, their song Arhal tells the story of a nomad searching for water in the vast desert and his struggles to simply survive in this harsh environment. Further, their song Timnadin, is named after the traditional Timnadin which are songs that have been past down through generations of Imazeghen.  The songs themselves were heavily influenced by the oral tradition and poetry maintained by Imazeghen women.  Many people throughout centuries contributed to these songs and the subject of these include everything from universal moments of happiness (birth, marriage) and sadness (sickness, loss, death) to detailed politics between tribes and the occurrence of specific events. However, IMODDA's songs also speak about the larger problems affecting Africa, such as totalitarianism, injustice, wars, and poverty. Additionally, many of their songs praise the values of democracy, diversity, freedom, tolerance, and peace.  For example, Adwal (the song which also gives the name to their first album) speaks about the Amazigh harvest.  A time when the community comes together to help one another reap their crops; working together they share the burden of the harvest.  It is a beautiful tradition built on trust and cooperation, which the group contrasts with the corruption manifest in the governments of North Africa
