Fan number 1 Stuart. Ya sabes que quiero foto...

In this episode of the Shubbak Festival podcast we are exploring politics, identity, and social media. During the restrictions imposed during the Covid-19 pandemic we all looked for ways to cope. For many, artistic expression was pivotal in passing the long hours spent indoors with no escape. For artists, this was no different; creativity battled boredom, frustration, and loneliness. Without access to public spaces, some of the artists showcasing their work at Shubbak Festival utilised all they could at their disposal. The most important tool of them all? An internet connection. DJ Nooriyah speaks to Abdulisms, Toufik Douib and Balqis Al Rashed to understand just how important the digital sphere is in their art and activism. Don't forget to subscribe to the show, Voices from Shubbak Festival 2021.

Song of the Week Number Two from Joni Mitchell's Blue

The Last Time I Saw Richard

A low quality demo of a song about my nights in Spain. Parts of the song are in a loose 15/16 time signature and I use my flamenco picking techniques. 

Bohemian festoons draped from her eyes,
Fog in my mind,
in the Malasana haze.

Silence flew wild, diluted in the day.
Granted by God,
a eulogy by a dog,
and King, in the mist, tarries away.

European spoons spoiled the child.
Eyes never faired;
and a language eludes.

They're no vanguards of a foreign feel.
We're just asleep.
While her hand is dead.
And a hijabed woman ponders Camus.

Solo conozco su espalda.
Es del azar,
y nunca seria.

Y no me acuerdo.
A lo mejor jamas no he entendido.
It's just a language that I never grew up in.
Yo lo tengo en una nebulosa.
