Bella Ciao

Kenzi Bourras is one of the talented keyboard players in the world of oriental music. He plays on the synthesizers his chiselled melodies with inimitable grooves from the pure traditions of Rai Music. 

As of 2017, Kenzi starts his solo project, after having collaborated with many artists such as ACID ARABE, Rachid Taha, Youssoufa, Kerry James, Mike Jones, Deamon Albarn, Mister You, 113,  and composed many film themes. 

Kenzi Bourras played alongside many renown musicians such as Rizan Said (Omar Souleyman’s Keyboard player), and was featured in ACID ARABE albums since day one of the Parisian DJ Duo, he. His style is similar to Rizan Said’s style, and a lot of Omar Souleyman’s fans can identify themselves in his music. But despite that, Kenzi’s rooted alaoui Algerian musical culture shows sharp in his collaborations, which gives him his own and very personal sound.

Kenzi’s music attempts to create a space for Arab culture in the world of contemporary electronic music. No clichés are presented in his creations either with the musicians or bands he accompanied or in his solo project that he just started.
