Biography

From Maghnia (Tlemcen Province), Mourad Gana, better known under the name Gana El Maghnaoui, was born 2 February 1958 in Maghnia, Algeria. As a musician, he plays the violin as well as the trumpet. His debut in rai music dates back to 1973. He was part of the orchestra of the Oran section of the RTA (1974–1980), then in Algiers. In 1978, he released two EPs and a year later he recorded an 8 track cassette. Noting that it didn't work, he disappeared and resumed in 1986 with the hit At ezzergha nsel rani and a cover of Bouteldja Belkacem Milouda fine Kunti, the hit of the year.

gollark: It's better than "hahahahahahaha you have to rewrite your application to use newer trendier things every few years or it'll break".
gollark: Just configure your linter or TS or whatever to disallow some stuff.
gollark: You can just mostly ignore the bad parts, though, like `this`.
gollark: I kind of dislike JS as a language, although I do find it very nice to work with for some things (with a typechecker).
