Habibi Funk contre Donald Trump

Habibi Funk contre Donald Trump ou comment la musique peut se battre contre la connerie

Habibi Funk aka le mec qui parcourt le monde pour dĂ©couvrir des sons dans des vinyles. Outre que le mec a une oreille et un talent de dĂ©nicheur de malade, il sait quand il doit prendre son cheval blanc. Donc quand il voit que Trump fait ce pour quoi il a Ă©tĂ© Ă©lu, c’est Ă  dire de la merde, il dĂ©cide de se battre avec ses armes : la culture et l’amour

Il nous propose donc une tape avec des sons venant des pays dont les ressortissants ont Ă©tĂ© bannis des USA par Donald. C’est beau, c’est grand et ça montre tout ce que le mĂ©tissage culturel peut produire de plus magique.

Je te mets la prez de la mixtape parce que ça mérite

Just 2 days ago I was sitting in a cafe during my recent trip for Lebanon and Egypt when Donald Trump announced his ban of muslim people visiting the USA marking another climax of xenophobia, anti muslim and anti Arabic narrative (??????? ??????? ?????).

At the same time I was in Cairo, a colorful, energetic and vital city that despite the cities and countries problems has not much in common with the stereotypical narrative of the Arabic world that is so largely told in the Western media. I’m aware that in times of these music is just a tiny piece of the puzzle to tell a different story but given that this is what I’m working with I felt it was the right time to drop another mix of music from Arabic tapes, vinyl and master tapes.

Music that is very different to what a lot of people might expect. Straight up Chicago soul music with the „The Cats“, an Egyptian band covering „The Dells“, Lo-Fi electronic music from Sudan, tropical sounds from Cairo by « Al Massrieen », energetic disco from Algeria by „Zohra », another unknown banger by Morocco’s answer to James Brown „Fadoul“. Or what about some incredible AOR / yacht pop from Lebanon feat. Ziad Rahbani on keys with „Games“ and another little preview of our forthcoming „Ahmed Malek & Flako“ record among some other great music? Music that tells a different story, music to listen to when the world is going crazy and everything in between.
