contemplative 70s Lebanese folk rock (but mostly sung in english), perfect for fall. Side A is slower and side B has some real bangers, but i think “Waiting for it everyday” is one of the most beautiful songs i’ve ever heard
Shout out habibi funk records!!! the best
Happened upon this record while browsing a store yesterday and listened tonight. light and breezy Egyptian singer with notes of jazz, pop, disco. Opens with a live renedition of the album (which besides that recording is only 3 tracks).
I imagine this would be perfect for a summer night, but instead I am savoring it in the dead of winter.
Exotic Love Song and Instrumentals from the Egyptian 60's
Beautiful compilation that I used to be absolutely obsessed with. Perfect listen for the spring time! Sadly I don't speak Arabic but the sweet and diverse sounds speak for themselves.
Favorite Track: Asmar Ya Sokkar 🌸
And FIVE were selected for publication in the latest issue of artdoc magazine, two in their online exhibition :) I wrote my artist statement in 30 seconds because I didn’t even imagine it would be seen. I’ve struggled with confidence in my creative vision and sharing my work recently, so this is an amazing way to close out the year 🌀🦋
The internet archive is just the greatest thing ever, i love it for the ephemeral films and lost home videos, old religious and esoteric manuscripts, textbooks, nasa photos, centuries’ worth of magazine issues, old records, lectures…. 💌
