Are you ready for an intoxicating live experience, blending Western electronic music with Middle Eastern vocals and sounds? The mighty Parisian electro-crew Acid Arab is set to deliver an energetic live show, promising yet another wild and memorable party.
The core of Acid Arab consists of two musicians and DJs, Guido Minisky and Hervé Carvalho, both raised in Paris' multicultural melting pot. With a mission to create a space for Arabic culture in modern electronic music, Acid Arab came to be. They initially released various remixes, collaborations, and tracks by other artists, but now they compose their own songs, often featuring strong guest appearances.
Their latest album, "٣ (Trois)," is no exception. The album is a collection of solid bangers that lure you to the dance floor from the very first beat. The songs feature eight different guest vocalists from North Africa, Syria, and Turkey, including Cem Yldiz, Sofiane Saidi, Cheb Halim & Rachid Taha.
From Algerian gasba, Anatolian trance, synthetic dabkeh, to bionic raï, these are just a few of the genres you can spot in the ten songs. Acid Arab has incorporated and invented a spectrum of music styles that break the boundaries between genres. Their lavish album pushes Acid Arab into new musical territories. Acid Arab has a completely original, pulsating, danceable sound that oozes with encounters between different musical worlds. Worlds that the two DJs have been able to step into in their own sonic backyard in France, where Western and Eastern music constantly intertwine.
