In cooperation with FSR.live, our Moods Magique show returns with a special one hour mix of contemporary music from Palestine and the Arab diaspora.
With the ongoing genocide happening in Gaza, we believe that silence is violence. We seek to amplify the incredible, diverse work of these artists and producers; to highlight the life and color of a culture that has been so ruthlessly oppressed.
From stunning reissues that capture emotional, political voices in 1970s and 80s Palestine, to the chameleon vocal stylings of Ma-Beyn, the psychedelic synthesis of Raymond Haddad, and genre-pushing beatwork of Muqata'a, Taymour, Julmud and Asifeh — this is just a tiny snapshot of the talent from a people whose history of resilience inspires us.
