The genre matured through the Somali Republic golden-age 1960s-1970s with Radio Mogadishu broadcasting the canonical Hargeisa-school singers. Vocal style features melismatic ornament over Arabic maqam vocabulary with Somali-Cushitic vocal-inflection. The post-1991 civil war disrupted institutional transmission; diaspora-revival in Minneapolis, London, and Toronto sustains contemporary practice.", "recipe": "classic Middle Eastern mid-1940s somali
