AND ALL A DE SPECIES

« AND ALL A DE SPECIES IN ALL A DIVERSE WAILED AND BLED THORNS AND SAND AND STONES NOTES CAME FROM DOWN UNDER BELLIES TORN, BUT THE BEAST!
WE COULDA BEEN WATCHING BIRDS AND LISTEN TO THE WIND UNDER THE OLIVE TREES, SING INFINITE LANGUAGES, WAYS INFINITE WAYS TO SEE INFINITE BEAUTY,
BUT THE END!
MOLOCH MOLOCH NIGHTMARE OF MOLOCH WATCHED AND GURGLED AND ALMOST CHOKED AND SPURS US ALWAYS ALL FORTH - FORTH - FORTH TO THAT PART RIGHT THERE WHERE THE LINE OF THE IDEA, THE SILHOUETTE OF CREPUSCULE
THE NOTHING! ANYTHING. BUT THE WIND IN MY BRETHREN’S HAIR
MOLOCH DON’T STAND IT MOLOCH IN PAIN MOLOCH GROWLS IN WRATH AND SPEWS AND PUSHES FORTH
LOVE I CANNOT ! YE CRUEL KINDS ! YE HEARTLESS MONSTERS HOW DARE YOU SHOW MY INCAPACITY SUCH, HAVE YOU NO PITY ? ART THOU DEPRAVED ? LOVE- HOLD I CANNOT, LIGHT I CANNOT BE
SO I TOSS AND TURN AND COUGH AND MOAN AND LAUGH, A CYNIC, ALL NIGHT OF TIME
UNTIL ALL I CAN DREAM WHEN YOUR EYELIDS STOP GLITCHING IS PILES OF MATTER UNEARTHED BY CHILDREN- MUD METAL NYLON COBALT MYRRH AND GOLD
THEIR FREEZING NAKED FEET DEEP IN THE SLUDGE OF MOTHER EARTH’S RAPED WOMB
EVEN THAT I CANNOT
EYE FOR EYE RIB FOR ROB TIT FOR TAT
BUT EYE CANNOT SEE SO ROBBIN SO WHAT
THE MORE I CHURN THE MORE I SHAME, THE LESS YOU CAVE THE MORE I RAGE
UNTIL
UNTIL
AT DAWN
YOU WIN
AND THE WIN IN WIND BLOWS STRONG ACROSS THE SEA
IT SINGS TO OUR EARS AND HEALS OUR DRIED UP HEART
TO ALL OUR BRAINBODIES
WE WHO’VE CROSSED THE DESERT BACKWARDS
GETTING LOST AND LOSING HOPE
THINKING WE WERE WICK
WHEN ONLY TALLOW
WE FOLLOW YOUR TORCH, SO BRIGHT, SO BRAVE
TILL IT IS CLEAR FOR ALL TO BE
THE ZEITOUN BRANCH HELD IN THE BEAK OF JUSTICE
WIND RUFFLING ITS EMERALD WINGS OF TRUTH,
THE ANGEL
WE GIVE THANKS, AND STAND WITH YE,
TILL LIBERATION ».

"VISIONS" ep.2 // The eclipse

FESTIVAL MEMOIRE DES SEXUALITÉS – Big tata invites El Badra

This soundscape is a calling for celebration of life through the remembrance of our traditions and rituals. It is also telling about the ghorba (nostalgia of the homeland ) this deep sorrow somewhere between contusion, confusion and distortion. This mix is also a tribute to my ancestors and all the humans who fought and still fight for freedom of being. In this music trip you will hear a fusion of traditional North African and middle eastern music like Rai, Zajal, Chaâbi, Aïta, Raggada, Amarg, Dabke, Gnaoua merged with Disco, Ambient, Garage, Acid, House, Techno, New wave, Global Bass seeking for intersection between dance floors futurism and traditions. I wanted to thank the collective uncivilized and the radio al hara for having me and my dear friends and amazing artists Makkimakuk and Assia Ghendir for sharing their voices on this mix.
I am so grateful for being able to share with you the magic of music and the power that remains in it. 

Lets raise our voices together it will always resonate somewhere

We are the revolution

RADIO AL HARA – Uncivilized invites El Badra

Le disco / l'electro arabe représente un cri de liberté dans un contexte où l’expression individuelle et la vie sont constamment menacés. Il est l'incarnation d'une jeunesse qui, même dans les moments les plus sombres, a choisi de résister par l’art, la culture et l’amour de la musique. C’est ce pouvoir de la musique, de l’unité et de la fête qui continue d’inspirer et de nourrir l’âme du Liban/ Monde arabe.

Amoureuse de la fusion musicale, pour moi la disco / electrofunk arabe et ses influences modernes s'inscrivent parfaitement dans cette tradition d'expérimentation musicale qui a marqué l'histoire de la scène musicale du Liban et du Moyen-Orient. Grandir avec des artistes qui mélangent les sons traditionnels arabes avec les influences occidentales qu'il s'agisse de disco, de funk, de reggae, de chaabi, musique gnawa, ahwach, rai, de jazz, de soul ou plus récemment de musique électronique donne une perspective unique sur le pouvoir de la fusion culturelle à travers la musique. 

Je tiens à exprimer ma profonde gratitude et remercier Assia ( Mama Ace) du fond du cœur pour l'invitation et pour la personne et artiste incroyable qu'elle est.

Merci à Piñata Radio pour leur accueil chaleureux et leur volonté de donner la parole aux artistes. Je dédie aussi ce set a ma mère Najat qui m'a transmis l'amour de la musique arabe et africaine et qui a tout fait pour que je n'oublie jamais d'où je viens et la force que je porte en moi.

Aussi je tiens à dédier ce set à tous les humains qui vivent la guerre, le génocide, toutes formes d'oppressions, de répressions et colonisations d'ou ma volonté d'orienter ce mix vers une selection d'artistes majoritairement libanais ou issus du Moyen Orient.

"HAPTIS LUMEN" ep.1 / the sound of ethernity

This second episode of "sound of eternity" is a invitation /initiation to discover Sufism_chamanism trough a large scale of sounds including textures, nature related elements but also organic traditional instrument as el nay, el oud, bendir.

This new mix is an ode to the hud hud a mystical bird also known for being a friend of the prophet سُلَيْمان (Souleyman) 
I chose the Hud Hud to figure here the travel as initiation in our spiritual journey. 

This set was recorded live during a special session, I was invited by the @uncivilizedcollective to share the vibe. 
So grateful for this invitation, for the space and for the ones there on this day. 

I dedicate this set to my dear friend Modou Gaye, one of the greatest spirit
