Shams

Arabic Electro Pop
Switzerland, Bern / Iraq, Baghdad

«3yooni» translated from Arabic means «my eyes» (pronunciation: ayooni).

What do you see through your eyes? Who are you through the eyes of society? Belonging, identity, language, racism and orientalism: Those are subjects, which Yassin Mahdi, who was born in Baghdad and grew up in Grisons, speaks critically about in his music project.

Electronic beats and synthesizers meet traditional Arabic rhythms, an electric oud and Arabic singing. Iraq and Switzerland - A clash between two worlds? Or maybe it is already a reality that society simply does not see?
