✧ A sonic river. A sacred rite. A journey into the soul.
« Fleuves de l’Âme » is the debut solo album by Houeida Hedfi, a deeply textured, cinematic work that flows between traditional North African rhythms, ambient soundscapes, and minimalist classical composition. The album unfolds as a ritual — delicate yet powerful, spiritual yet grounded.

"Fleuves de l’Âme" — Rivers of the Soul — is a meditation on the invisible geographies we carry within us. Each composition evokes a different river, both real and metaphorical: a tribute to time, transformation, and the feminine current of creation.
Inspired by ancient traditions and modern sonorities, the album explores:
The spiritual power of percussion
The resonance of ancestral memory
Feminine presence as elemental force
The silence between breaths
