COMPOSITIONS FOR COMPUTERS

Released on October 18, 2023, available on major music streaming services, the music album of the MAQRUH audiovisual project is inspired by the term makruh which refers to a detestable act although it is neither forbidden nor entirely allowed. It exists within a space of liminal ambivalence – disapproved of but not punishable as well as the contrasts between the dark ambiance and tranquillity of techno-electronic music paired with Middle-Eastern and West-Asian musical motifs.
