Part of my Oud Taqsims · Meditative Journeys in Sound collection.
Each piece is a short oud improvisation, between two and three minutes, exploring different maqams and scales that express both emotion and stillness.

I arranged these recordings for moments when I want my walks or quiet hours to be guided only by the sound of the oud. Some tracks include subtle ambient layers to sustain a meditative tone, but the focus always remains on the natural warmth of the instrument.

The oud, with its deep wooden resonance and voice-like tone, has long been cherished for its soothing and introspective qualities. Its melodies have a way of slowing the breath and drawing the mind into calm reflection.

If you enjoy my more melodically lyrical works where the oud leads within full ensembles, listen to my album Strings of a Compass.
This series, however, stays closer to silence—a personal dialogue between breath and string, created for mindfulness, focus, and peaceful thought.

هذه المقطوعة جزء من مجموعة تقاسيم عود · رحلات تأملية في الصوت.
كل تقاسيمها قصيرة وعفوية، تعبر بين المقامات لتوازن بين السكون والعاطفة.
أعددتُها لأوقاتٍ أريد فيها أن يرافقني صوت العود وحده في هدوءٍ وتأملٍ صادق، حيث تمتزج الأنفاس مع الأوتار وتصفو الروح.

🥁  Core Musical Structure
1. Baladi Progression (“Baladi Taqasim”)
A typical Baladi progression is not verse-chorus, but an unfolding story arc:
Taqsim (Improvised instrumental solo, usually accordion or oud)
Slow Baladi (heavy, grounded rhythm enters)
Build-up section (percussion & melodic dialogue intensify)
Fast Baladi / Saidi switch-up (tempo increases)
Drum Solo / Tahtib-style ending flourish

🎵  Essence and Origin
Raqs Baladi (رَقص بلدي) literally means “dance of the country” or “folk dance.”
It is the root form of Egyptian belly dance, born from rural social dances that migrated into the cities — especially Cairo — and evolved alongside early 20th-century urban music ensembles (takht).
Baladi is to Egypt what blues is to America: a soul form — earthy, improvisational, conversational between body and instrument.

I’ve always lived at the crossroads of music and poetry — where feeling becomes form, and melody turns memory into meaning. Whether it’s a lingering jazz note, a well-placed rhyme, or a shift in tempo that tells a deeper story, I’m drawn to that quiet magic where art reflects life with a little more style.

My roots are in classic music — the kind that doesn’t chase the moment but lingers with you long after the last note. Over time, that love expanded into poetry writing and jazz — especially the kind that swings, speaks, and smirks all at once. Jazz, to me, isn’t just a genre; it’s a personality. A conversation. A little tilt of the head and a grin that knows more than it says.

When I set out to create an album, it’s rarely just a collection of songs. I approach it like a personal playlist — one that drifts and flows as if the entire tracklist were one long, uninterrupted piece. Each track leans into the next, shifting mood, pace, or voice, but always carrying the same thread of feeling. I want you to listen the way I do — not as a shuffle of moments, but as a cinematic arc. One breath that lasts an hour.

Lyrically, my work is rooted in lived experience. Sometimes it’s obvious. Other times it’s just the skeleton of a memory, dressed up in wit, irony, or longing. I draw from real-life events, then let the poet in me twist, stretch, or sweeten them to taste. Depending on the tone of the album — playful, romantic, nostalgic, or something in between — I try to keep the emotional truth intact while giving it a fresh coat of creativity. A little humor where it fits. A deeper dive where it hurts.

My newest jazz album continues this tradition — short-lined swing tracks, conversational duets, and tongue-in-cheek storytelling. It’s an homage to late-night alleyway ballads, rooftop serenades, and train station goodbyes — all bound together with a sense of charm and cohesion. Each song is its own little scene, but together they tell a story — one you can revisit with each replay.

Thanks for stopping by my profile. I hope you find something that earns a spot on your repeat-play list — a melody, a lyric, or a moment that feels like it was written just for you.

From mood-setting Leitmotifs to high-energy dance routines. Your FYP is ready for this. 🫧 🎧
