Izvorišta 373: Yemen Blues, Dudu Tassa & Jonny Greenwood, Sanam...
Arabic Fuzz. I borrowed this name from the group Al-Qasar, and it perfectly describes an interesting combination of Arabic music with various modern genres, and this and last year there were a lot of interesting albums that can be classified under this name. This episode of Izvorišta is dedicated to Arabic fuzz, and the focus is on the albums "Shabazi - A Tribute to the Poet" by the group Yemen Blues and "Jarak Qaribak" by Dudu Tassa and Jonny Grenwood. We also listened to songs from the new albums by Sanam and Aya Metwalli & Calamita, as well as the slightly older Le Cri Du Caire and of course Al-Qasar.
