"It" by mhatanGRAUZAHN is a powerful rock ballad about aging, fading ambitions, and the bittersweet realization of losing touch with what’s considered new and cool. With raw lyrics drenched in nostalgia, the song reflects on the inevitable passage of time, shattered pride, and the universal truth that every generation eventually feels out of place.

Blending Pop Rock, Classic Rock, Blues, Hard Rock, and Metal influences, the track delivers a sound reminiscent of Led Zeppelin and other iconic rock legends. Heavy guitar riffs, soulful vocals, and a hauntingly honest chorus make "It" a timeless anthem for anyone who has ever felt the weight of growing older while watching the world move on.

Whether you’re drawn in by the nostalgic storytelling, the emotional depth of the lyrics, or the classic hard rock energy, this song captures the struggle between holding on to past ambitions and learning to fade away with grace.

🔥 If you love classic rock vibes, emotional rock ballads, and songs about life, aging, and nostalgia, then this track is for you.

👉 Listen now and let "It" remind you that while ambitions may fade, music keeps the spirit alive.

Electro Btaihi est un projet à mi-chemin entre les musiques traditionnelles de Tunisie et la musique actuelle et underground.
C’est une création du violoniste Zied Zouari, née du besoin d’explorer de nouvelles sonorités pour la musique tunisienne.
Electro Btaihi mélange des grooves très "up-date" (Drum & Bass, le dup-step, Trap..) avec des rythmes traditionnels tunisiens (Btaihi, Bounawara) le tout au service de la polyrythmie indienne et parfois du Jazz.
Un projet au goût du jour où chants ancestraux et musiques actuelles se croisent sans limites et affichent une complicité rare.

Pour ce faire, Zied Zouari s'entoure de l'époustouflant Beatboxeur Twinlo et du redoutable guitariste électrique Ghassen Fendri, deux pilliers incontournables d'un trio hors pair.

Wameedd © is a dynamic and symbiotic creational process between Kamilya Jubran and Werner Hasler. In the unique opportunity of their meeting, Kamilya and Werner started an experiment with no definition, nor an intended destination. They both have different roots yet their “central current” worlds meet. At every meeting, Kamilya and Werner experiment and go to a different orbit as they get inspired with the questions that mobilize their imagination.  Every outcome becomes consistent with strong and new meanings yet at the same time associated with the simplicity of sound .It is an open communication with less cultural “preconceptions” .This is a smooth outcome of Kamilya’s voice quality and its limitless utility, Arabic words, Arabic phonemic rhythms and Kamilya’s compositions. It is also an outcome of the   roots of Werner’s “vocal instrument“, his own melodies and his unique lead in electronic music. They both come in on common grounds with a common vision of the world and a shared knowledge of how to communicate with it. The outcome at every meeting is fragile, uncertain, yet at the same time expressive and definitive. Kamilya and Werner continue questioning and moving in unwalked territories towards a horizon they have not experienced before. This creation may result in a unique alchemy in a harmonious universe and may become a distinctive language of art which is hard to name.

عمل إبداعي مشترك ومتداخل هو ثمرة لقاء خاص بين كميليا جبران وفيرنر هاسلر . اللقاء بين الإثنين, على إختلاف منابعهما الفنيّة، قد ولد تجربة فريدة لا يمكن تأطيرها وحشرها في تعريفات ضيقة.رغم  جذورهما المختلفة فإن تجربتهما معاً تُفضي بهما إلى عالم واحد وتشحن تساؤلا تهما  الفنيّة بحثاً عن سلالم ترتقي بهما إلى مخيلة منفتحة على فضاء أرحب ، بغية إفراز معانٍ جديدة تقوم بدورها في توسيع الفضاءات الفنيّّة . وهذه المعاني التي تبدو للوهلة الأولى عصية بعض الشيء، إلا أنها تتصف ببساطة الأصوات والأنغام التي‮ ‬تخلق‮ ‬بدورها حواراً مفتوحاً على مصراعيه بعيداً عن الإفتراضات الثقافية المسبقة.
هذا العمل الفني يحاول إستخلاص صوت كميليا جبران وإمكانياتة المفتوحة على فضاءات المنطوقات العربية,من كلمات وأصوات وإيقاعات، وذلك عبر صياغة لحنيّه خاصة تجمع بينهما وبين منابع  فيرنر الصوتية والنغمية المتدفقة من أجهزته الإلكترونية.  اللقاء بين فيرنر وكميليا يأتي على أرضيّة مشتركة ومن خلال رؤيّة متقاربة للعالم  في أسلوب ينشد الوصول إلى هذا المختلف والمؤتلف في آن معاً. رغم أن النتيجة بعد كل محاولة بينهما قد تبدو للوهلة الأولى هشة وغير واثقة، إلا أنها تأتي مَُعبّره متسمة بالثقة بالنفس.
إنهما يبحران معاًً بتساؤلاتهما نحو مناطق غير مطروقة وصوب أفقٍ لم يطآه من قبل .
 من شأن هذا اللقاء بينهما أن يوّلد كيمياء فريدة لعالم  متناسق ومتناغم رغم تنويعاته وإختلاف منابعه.إنها محاولة لخلق لغة فنيّة متّميزة  يَصعب تسميتها.

YUNIS seeks inspirations from the popular Egyptian folkloric heritage, which boasts many instruments, tools, and musical styles. He then reads and analyzes the musical legacy and presents it with the forms of his contemporary time. This is what is clearly shown in his first solo album, “The Blue Djinn dance", which released on 15 November via Kafr El-Dauwar Records.

With multiple influences of electronic music and contemporary Egyptian folk/wedding music, YUNIS tries through six original tracks to explore in the creative spaces afforded by the various shapes of the music of these popular weddings.
