Lovely! Reminds me a little bit of a hungarian roma band called 'Andro Drom'. Beautiful stuff!

lovely Eastern European feel ..delicate rhythms - a hint of Klezmer maybe...

God, I love your music. This style has always been one of my favorites.

Really great. Peaceful but with a little edginess :-)

Honk Samy ! Je découvre celle-ci… Je dois dire que tu as le don pour composer des mélodies qui me vrillent à chaque fois le citron, du moins ce qu'il en reste… Des vis-sans-fin derviche-tournantes AOC! C'est triste et émouvant. Porte-toi bien.

Teth Sin finally seems to be back with a cool wicked track called Gazelle, featuring his friend Luna on vocals/recitation. She decorated with her vivid poetry one of those creepy, dark soundscapes I've been working on these last few months. I sincerely thank her for this amazing contribution, and for her active involvement in the whole creative process of this title. Thanks for taking the time to listen to it.

Uncrowned queens, warrior princes,
the tiger flies in the air.
The flag howls in the cold of the sad west, and blond curls win.
The panther's lost the game, watching the sun.
The Gazelle weeps on her broken leg.
And she's alive

Disclaimer: I think I've heard part of the main theme of this melody somewhere, but not I'm sure. If anyone knows what it is, please let me know and I'll edit the title and description and give the due credits.
Best listened with headphones as there is some mandolin overplay which is sometimes not very audible.
I was playing my mandolin just after the Brussels attacks and this piece came out. Inspiration can come from any circumstances its seems. 
Brusseleir designates a Brussels citizen in the local dialect. But it's best pronounced "Brusseleir" with a thick Brussels accent instead of just "Brusseleir". Now you know everything.


The Brusseleir

A little piece on the mandolin created this Saturday afternoon after a nap. 
Crappy microphone + crappy sound card = crappy sound + scratches. No mystery to this equation.
Točka (pronounced tochka) means "dot" or "spot" in Croatian and is the name we gave to a little kitten who appeared one day in the courtyard (pictured). 
That's all it is really.
August 14th 2017: The little Točka left us yesterday. Too soon. She was very fun and sweet.  You can see some pics of her here: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/tockathepanda

Mandolin and guitar, bass played by me. Drums and percussions are samples and loops because I cannot play them which is very unfortunate .

Another musical collaboration with Jeff (@jwiedenfeld)!
Jeff:  Gambian bass, string bass, environmental acoustics
Me: Mandolin

Meowing Tall (Jeff Wiedenfeld & Samy Ben Rabah)

Maybe I'll try to make a song of this -  maybe.

A Few Drops...

I think I was trying something inspired by raga charukeshi and then it degenerated - oh no! Is it serious doctor?
No dogs were involved in this track.

Playing and creating some music, drawing cartoons and baking bread. That's what I like to do!
I play guitar and mandolin. I used to play sitar and learn Hindustani music - but not anymore - so you might hear some influence in my music, especially the pieces with mandolin. I don't play accordion, despite my profile photo. I wish I could pay it though, and many other instruments.

Some selected reviews written by my cat in the in-house Music & Arts magazine: 

"The equivalent of an acoustic waterboarding!"
"Music? What music?"
"Just noise"
"No place to sleep with all these instruments"
"A daily torture"
"I wish I was deaf"
"Noise arrogantly called music"
"A pleasure... when it stops"
"Can't even unsubscribe to this"

I'm very glad to have stumbled upon very fine artists on Soundcloud and honored to have collaborated with some very talented individuals.
