Roots Sikah is an electronic album influenced by various genres including Dub, Folktronica, Shamstep, Reggae and Arabic folk music. The music on this album uses a diverse number of scales and rhythms found in the Middle East and also makes use of quartertones (gadwal) that gives Arabic music its distinct flavour.

The term Sikah comes from the combination of two words of Persian origin: Si, which means “three,” and the suffix Kah, from the Persian gah meaning “a position.” Sikah therefore, means the third position on the scale Rast (the primary scale of Arabic music). Sikah is also the primary quartertone used in Arabic music, featured on every track of this album.

released March 4, 2021 on all Digital platforms and Limited Edition CD.

In 1979 Suns of Arqa creator and mentor Michael Wadada set about recording the ground breaking Suns of Arqa album 'Revenge of the Mozabites' with his friend Adrian Sherwood. Together they formed the ‘4D Rhythm’ label – the world was not ready! Wadada retreated to the Pennine mountain range in Lancashire, Adrian Sherwood went on to create the formidable ‘On-U Sound’ label. Three years went by before a a very curious Peter Gabriel came across a rare copy of that first Suns of Arqa album; he was putting together the very first World of Music and Dance festival (WOMAD), and asked Suns of Arqa to come and perform. 

Revenge of the Mozabites is where it all started, this truly eclectic album of world-dub-east-west fusion from Suns of Arqa, ignited what would ultimately become the new World Dub Dance genre which has influenced & inspired so many artists today.

ACID TABLA  Re-Mix

One and probably the last tune I upload from  my last  album ARABADUB . From now on I'm working on the new album, as well as the debut album of Brooklyn Gypsies which I'm now a member of.

Cero39 (((Sound System)))

The originator of the Dub Caravan project is Felix Aburdene - an artist, multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer of Palestinian descent, striving to create a multi-dimensional musical landscape for listeners who are craving something fresh, original and out of this world…This atypical Caravan (project) of sounds is of a nomadic nature and is in constant motion.

It isn’t bound to a single location, country or city. Dub Caravan continuously wanders around the world in pursuit of recruiting Poets, Singers, Musicians and other Artists from various cultures and countries in order to concoct new and original exotic sounds...

Members/partakers of the Dub Caravan project jump on and off as they please but always remain part of the Caravan. Being a member of this project is about belonging to something special without being bound to it. It’s organic, natural and free flowing…

In theory, the music of Dub Caravan is not associated with any one style but it is heavily influenced by Arabic folk music, Electronic music, Dub, Reggae particularly from the Mediterranean and Middle East.
