ZENOBIA
A-weha
Zenobia, the electronic music Palestinian duo, are coming back with a new track ”A-weha”, out on May 6th on Acid Arab Records/crammed Discs.
“This song is a sort of viewpoint on what is happening these days all around the world, it seems like everything is going to have to change, or to end” say Zenobia. ‘A-weha’ is an exclamation word used in traditional Palestinian wedding songs, sung by women with no music. Usually the song start with the word a-weha, followed by good wishes to the bride and groom.
Combining powerful beats, Levantine dabke rhythms and Arabic pop melodies, Zenobia’s wild live shows have made a big impression. They’ll be performing this summer 2022 at Paléo Festival (CH), Esperanzah! (BE) and Musicalarue (FR) among others.

São Paulo Confessions
Serbian-born musician/composer Suba was about to become one of Brazil's most prominent producers when he tragically tragically passed away in November 1999.
Suba left us just a few days after the release of his now-legendary album "São Paulo Confessions" (probably the most inspired album of electronic music to have come out of Brazil), and shortly before the completion of Bebel Gilberto's "Tanto Tempo" album, which was graced by his outstanding production work.
"São Paulo Confessions" has become a major cult album. It can be described as a soulful journey through the southern hemisphere’s largest megalopolis.
Based on a great mixture of acoustic + electronic beats & instruments, it contains several memorable songs, including "Felicidade", "Sereia" and "Tantos Desejos”, 3 songs which marked Cibelle's recording debuts. Also appearing are vocalists Katia B and Taciana, as well as Nordeste band Mestre Ambrosio, master percussionist João Parahyba, and poet/rocker Arnaldo Antunes.
