A bold and healing track about setting boundaries & walking away from messy dynamics 🤌🏼

Lejos De Mí

Monstera Occulta – BRUZZ Ice Radio / 22.06.2025

This mix explores sound as a fractured memory, a slow tension between lands, voices, and unresolved rhythms.
Spoken word, dark dub, and diasporic frequencies intertwine across SWANA territories and beyond — from political ambient to deconstructed percussions and ghosted melodies.
A set for those who listen in the cracks.

Featuring: Rim Banna, Puce Mary, ZULI, Freddie June, Alsarah & the Nubatones, Khyam Allami, El Mahdy Jr., and more.

📻 Aired on BRUZZ Radio 98.8 FM (Brussels)
🎧 Curated and mixed by Monstera Occulta

#1 Room Test. Back to my asylum-seeking era. In a dimly lit room, barely visible — some tools and a joint. A brief time travel through psychological wounds, insecurity, and hopelessness. Deep-rooted feelings in a refugee&amp#39;s heart.

Special "early" Birthday gift for me that i made :)

Y a Alger, Gaalbi Maâk is a love letter in the form of a song. A soft cry, whispered across time and distance, saying to Algiers: "I never really left you — my heart stayed behind."

It’s the sound of longing — woven with memories of childhood, narrow streets, corner cafés, the smell of mint tea, and old men playing dominoes as the city hums quietly in the background.

This track blends traditional Algerian melodies with a modern twist — a musical handshake between past and present.

It’s for everyone who loves Algiers, whether they walk its streets every day, or carry it in their soul from afar.

Ya Alger Gaalbi Maak

Cette chanson est une déclaration d’amour à l’Algérie, écrite en trois langues, comme ses trois visages :
le cœur qui parle en arabe, l’âme qui s’exprime en français, et l’écho du monde en anglais.

Du silence doré du Sahara aux peintures millénaires du Tassili, des ruelles blanches d’Alger la lumineuse aux rythmes d’Oran la joyeuse, chaque note raconte une histoire, chaque mot porte une couleur.

C’est un voyage entre désert et mer, entre montagnes et espoir, entre racines et ouverture.

Entre les langues se tissent des émotions — un refrain qui unit, un pont entre les générations, une mélodie pour ceux qui vivent en Algérie… et ceux qui la portent dans le cœur, ailleurs.
