This mix complies of different types of music I edited and sounds I experimented with for this program, inspired by the story of Middle East and responding to Etel Adnan’s poem sent by you. The poem in this mix is read by Lama Abo Chuqeir.

Thank you, Yamen, SACF, Root Radio and everyone who invited me to share my sound here. You are all doing an amazing work. Also, much love and appreciation for Radio AlHara, I have been keeping up since the beginning, it is outstanding and truly inspiring.

Love and gratitude, Lara

Excerpt from: "Night" by Etel Adnan in English and translated into Arabic:

I am a night bird. I search in barely visible corners the pencils, erasers, and writing slates of my early years…
I continue to hug walls. This hour is tired of dealing with ancestors. Many things are receding along with the seasons, and the sun has set, that was just there
I will pursue my flight…

قصيدة مترجمة عن الانكليزية من "ليل" مجموعة شعرية للكاتبة إيتيل عدنان

أنا عصفورةٌ ليليةٌ
،أبحثُ في الزَّوايا المخبَّأة
عن أقلامِ الرصاص و المحايات
… و الكتابات من سنيني الأولى
لا زلت أعانق الجدران
تعبت هذه الساعة من تداعيات أجدادي
تنحسرُ مع الفصول أشياءٌ كثيرةٌ
والشَّمسُ التي كانت هنا غابتْ
أما أنا سأستمر في التحليق

(@shadi_zaitoun)26 years old, electronic music fanatic and collector based in Mainz, Germany. 

I organize vintage fashion markets around Europe as my full-time job and a solidarity festival series called Zuflucht, which is focused on including minorities in the project and donating all of its profit to Za'atar Ngo that helps refugees in Greece.  

Enjoy my story-telling journey that I expressed through experimental sounds, it ranges from ambient and dub to idm and everything in between.
