Raisa Natalie is one of the Europeans who were influenced by the Amazigh culture in the nineties, and this was the reason that made her travel to Morocco to discover its diverse culture. She settled in one of the cities in southern Morocco, and learned the alphabet of the Amazigh language, to be able to release her first album when she was 15 years old, and it was a joint album with the band Loubaz, which was very famous at that time.

Predominantly Muslim music from Palestinians, Algerians, Moroccans, Syrians, Pakistani, Egyptians, Indians, Hausa, and Mongolians seamlessly mixed and juxtaposed as not only a tapestry of cultural cross pollination but a vision of future regional and cultural integration and unity.

1 of 3 in a series of hypnotic and ecstatic Rhythms and melodies in anticipation of increased West Asian, South Asian, South East Asian, East Asian, and African cooperation in matters of culture as well as economy, diplomacy, security.  A sonic vision of a potential Asian Union as part of BRICS and rising multipolarity.

I finally set free my first single “Ultimate thought” aka (ⴰⵅⴻⵎⵎⴻⵎ ⴰⵏⴻⴳⴳⴰⵔⵓ) available on all platforms 👾 

I started the production of this song on the way to Las Palmas to mix at @el.baladero , that breakaway gave the inspiration to create something rebellious mixing hard industrial and some trap 🦄

A hint of Mediterranean spice was added to the rhythmic to make it more danceable, can you guess it ? 🌶️

Hope you enjoy it and this is the first of my 8 songs dropping in the next 3 months 🔮

For my fellow Djs a lossless audio is available as a free download on SoundCloud (limited quantity) 🫶🏽

Ultimate Thought | ⴰⵅⴻⵎⵎⴻⵎ ⴰⵏⴻⴳⴳⴰⵔⵓ

Casa Árabe, en colaboración la Fundación TBA21, la Fundación Euroárabe de Altos Estudios y Iwa Fest de Melilla, organizan en Madrid esta mesa redonda en torno a la identidad amazigh y su significado en la actualidad. 

Arraigada en siglos de historia, expresión artística y tradiciones musicales, la cultura amazigh ha evolucionado constantemente, adaptándose a nuevas influencias, al tiempo que conserva su carácter distintivo. En este encuentro se abordarán aspectos clave de las tradiciones artísticas amazigh, desde la narración visual hasta el patrimonio musical. El debate intentará ahondar en cómo estos elementos se han desarrollado a lo largo del tiempo, cómo interactúan con los movimientos creativos contemporáneos y qué revelan sobre las intersecciones entre identidad, memoria y resistencia.

El acto representa una oportunidad para conectar con la naturaleza profundamente arraigada de las formas culturales amazigh, examinando su lugar dentro de narrativas históricas más amplias y los paisajes artísticos modernos.

Hassan Laaguir, coordinador de la Cátedra Internacional de Cultura Amazigh de la Fundación Euroárabe de Altos Estudios, Karima Ziali, escritora e investigadora y Borja Ramón, director del Iwa Fest de Melilla, compartirán sus reflexiones alrededor del tema. Modera Karim Hauser, coordinador de Programas Culturales de Casa Árabe.

Hassan Laaguir, originario del sur de Marruecos, es investigador especializado en cultura amazigh. Coordina la Cátedra Internacional de Cultura Amazigh, creada en 2014 por la Fundación Euroárabe de Altos Estudios en Granada bajo el patrocinio de la Fundación Dra. Leila Mezian, de Marruecos. En 2021 ha editado el libro colectivo Los bereberes en la península Ibérica. La contribución de los amazigh a la historia de al-Ándalus. Poeta en su lengua materna, el tamazight, ha publicado el poemario ⵜⴰⵍⴰⵍⵜ.

Borja Ramón Vega es un realizador y productor audiovisual nacido en la ciudad de Melilla. Tras estudiar Cine y Televisión en Madrid, ha trabajado como realizador en diversas productoras de televisión y publicidad. Su conocimiento de la cultura amazigh proviene de sus viajes y estancias en el Rif marroquí, así como de su labor profesional en el Instituto de las Culturas de Melilla, donde creó la web iwatamazight, dedicada a la difusión de la lengua y tradiciones amazighes a través de proyectos audiovisuales. Borja ha asesorado y organizado, junto a la administración de Melilla, varias ediciones del Año Nuevo Amazigh. Desde 2022, dirige el Iwa Fest de Melilla, un festival de diversidad y cultura contemporánea que se ha consolidado como un espacio de encuentro, diálogo y difusión de las raíces culturales norteafricanas en diálogo con las expresiones artísticas más innovadoras del resto del mundo.

Karima Ziali Itahriouan es escritora e investigadora. Convive con el rifeño, el catalán y el castellano desde una edad muy temprana. Nacida en Marruecos, crece en Cataluña, donde obtiene la licenciatura en Filosofía por la Universidad de Barcelona. Más tarde se muda a Valencia, donde obtiene el Máster en Formación del Profesorado. Después de obtener otro Máster, en Investigación Antropológica por la UNED, se instala en Granada, donde es investigadora en el Instituto de Migraciones y lleva a cabo un doctorado en el programa de Estudios Migratorios de la UGR sobre sexualidad, islam y secularismo. Ha participado en diferentes eventos literarios nacionales e internacionales. Publica de forma habitual en varios medios de comunicación. Una oración sin dios (Esdrújula, 2023) es su primera novela.

Ha Ljawi Ha Salaban

Wa Tallozt Ifrigi

Where there’s Part 1, there’s Part 2… and sometimes even 3.

The old world is collapsing—its structures fading, its borders dissolving. We are no longer just witnessing change; we are inside it, moving through the wreckage of what was and into the chaotic birth of what’s next. A new world is emerging in real time.

As everything shifts, we turn to sound—digging through the Vol. 4 submission folders, gathering fragments of memory, rhythm, and resistance to make sense of the moment. VOL. 2 is loading.

This is music for uncertain times—where irony meets feeling, nostalgia collides with speed, and the African side of things reminds us that rhythm has always been a force of survival and liberation. Polyrhythms spiral like broken timelines, edits twist the past into something unrecognizable, and bass shakes the ground beneath us.

But through all the chaos, one truth remains: we are one. Across continents and sounds, across generations and struggles, we move together. And in the end, freedom will win.

YOUN3S x skyquake - Ahwash

This set is journey between Algerian electro Gnawa, Brazilian electro blends and Breakbeat with some twists of Balkans moods.

Sarah's Bday bb May 2025

This is “Miséricordieux” aka ⴰⵔⵃⵉⵎ.
It started on a walk home from a rave. 4PM. No sleep. Sun was too bright, church bells too loud. Something shifted 👾

Later that night: acid trip with people I love, and a rabbit named Zombie who wouldn’t stop staring at us. I think he saw something we didn’t. He became the spirit guide.
That rabbit ended up inside the song. Literally. The FX? That’s him trying to escape 🐇

I don’t know what this track is, really. I don’t know if this one healed me or broke me again. A scream inside a prayer maybe. A breakdown you can dance to 🔮

Sadness, Fear, Rage. But laced with mercy. A soft kind ⛓️

This wasn’t supposed to be drop #2. But it wouldn’t wait, it pushed its way through.
Funny how the most chaotic ones always find their way out first 🖤

Miséricordieux | ⴰⵔⵃⵉⵎ

Ever felt so twisted by love that it turns into pure disgust and poisons your view of everyone? Yeah, me too ⛓️‍💥

I started the production of this track at a random Tuesday at 2am, sleepless night
My third single “I Hate Humans” aka (ⴽⴻⵔⵀⴻⵖ ⵉⵎⴷⴰⵏⴻⵏ) is now out on all platforms 🖤

it won’t make sense to everyone. it’s not trying to.
This one’s not for the club. It’s for the void 🕷️

This one came out of nowhere crafted in one go on a random Thursday, mid-breakdown, everything burning inside, I poured it all into this track 🩻

The rhythm screams. The FX cries. Somewhere in between, a story unfolds ✨

Track 3 of 8 👁️ each release digs deeper into my core, shining light on parts I usually keep in the dark 🌕

Lossless audio is available everywhere, and a limited batch is up for free download on SoundCloud for fellow Djs and heads who want to spin it right 🎧
