Saint Levant - Deira feat. MC Abdul (Mattias Russo-Larsson, Palestine, 2024)

@zoethebitch, Nahas is one of the artists that appears in 2.06 and makes Saira teary-eyed.

They also featured this Afghan songwriter,

Elaha Soroor, further recontextualizing the "I won't mention the w—" scene in the previous episode.

Soroor was one of the first female artists to publicly perform after the fall of Taliban (2001).

A forthright advocate for women's emancipation, she fled the country when her life was in danger.

On the show, we hear her singing a jazzy rendition of "Jama Narenji," a folk song of separation from Herat. The orange color of the title (and video clip) is a symbol of revolution and resistance.

i cannot be the first person to post this here but i am going so fucking insane about the gaia music collective's one day choir singing wait for me. the opening harmonies are you KIDDING me

A Palestinian boy throws a rock during the first intifada

His name is Ramzi Abu Redwan. During the time the picture was taken he was 8 years old. Today he is 36 and has become a world-class solo musician and composer, playing the Oud, Buzuq, Violin and Viola. 

He was discovered by a Palestinian musician who recognized his natural talent at the viola, and later received a scholarship to study at a conservatory in France. He could have stayed there and lived a comfortable life in Paris, but instead, he chose to return home and give back the gift of music by openning music schools in Palestinian towns and refugee camps.

he’s got a spotify btw!! if you’ve never heard a oud, i def encourage listening to his work. it’s a beautiful instrument from a beautiful people ❤🖤🤍💚

here’s my personal fave of what i’ve heard so far from his top 5

Forget about Habibi Funk (white guy owned reissue music label who have been buying up and repackaging retro MENA music for public consumption) and support Sudan Tape Archive instead

Also check out Majazz, a similar Palestinian-run project 🥰

Thank you for the recommendation ❤️

Did you know which pro-Palestine song that Habibi Funk removed from their release?

The song غيفارا غزة (Ghifara Ghazza) from Ferkat al-Ard's album Oghneya (one of their most famous reissues afaik). It's listed in the Discogs page for the original album:

https://www.discogs.com/master/889285-فرقة-الأرض-Ferkat-Al-Ard-أغنية

The actual song seems to have been removed from Youtube but here's a Reddit post that links to the deleted Youtube video:
