Mohammed Assaf محمد عساف







Mohammed Assaf ( b. 10 September 1989) is a Palestinian singer well known for being the winner of the second season of Arab Idol, broadcasted the MBC network. He was given the nickname Asaroukh ("The Rocket") by Lebanese singer and Arab Idolj udge Ragheb Alama. Assaf was named a goodwill ambassador for peace by The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA). He was also named ambassador of culture and arts by the Palestinian government and was offered a position with "diplomatic standing" by the Palestinian president Mahmood Abbas.

Assaf was acclaimed by the jury and the public and was compared to the late Egyptian legend Abdel Halim Hafez through his voice as well as his appearance. People have used part of the late Egyptian singer's name and merged it with Assaf's, as in Assaf Hilm Falastine ("Assaf Palestine’s Dream") His victory received world-wide coverage from the media and was welcomed with joy by Palestinians and the rest of the Arab world.
He was born in Misrata, Libya to Palestinian parents from Gaza Strip, Palestine. His mother's family hails from the depopulated village of Beit Daras and his father's family is originally from Beersheba, both localities in present-day IsraelAssaf and his parents returned to the refugee camp at Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip when he was four years old. He is one of seven siblings, three of whom, including Assaf, have been involved in performing live music. Assaf's mother Intisar, a mathematics teacher, has stated that Assaf began singing at the age of five and "had a voice of someone who was much, much older."  Sometime after his first performance, he sang in a local event in Gaza attended by late Palestinian president Yasser Arafat
Assaf did not have professional training as a singer; he started his career singing at weddings and other private events. He entered the public view in 2000 during a popular local television program where he called in and sung a nationalist song to the host's praise. Afterward, he was frequently offered contracts with local record companies. 
Before his role on the television show he was attending Gaza City's Palestine University majoring in media.
Mohammad Assaf traveled from Gaza Strip to Egypt to audition for Arab Idol. It took him two days to reach Egypt by car due to complications on the border. At the beginning, he had to convince the Egyptian security at the border crossing, where he was stuck for two days, to leave Gaza. Once he reached the hotel where the auditions were taking place, the doors were closed in which they did not accept anymore auditions so he jumped over the wall. After he jumped over the wall, he couldn't get a number to audition; he sat hopelessly in the hall where other contestants who were waiting for their turn. He started singing to the contestants,  and a Palestinian contestant, Ramadan Abu Nahel,  who was waiting to audition heard him and gave him his number saying, "I know I won't reach the finals but you will." 
He sang Ragheb Alama's song during one of the primes on Arab Idol. Alama surprised him with a gesture in appreciation for his performance, granting him the right to sing and release his song "Ya Rayt Fiyyi Khabiha" as a duet with the Lebanese singer. Ahlam, an Emirati singer and judge on the show, said of Assaf, "I feel when you are singing, I am the guest in a big concert and you are the star," while Lebanese singer Nancy Ajram was impressed with him, calling Assaf "a true singer" after one of his performances. Hassan El Shafei compared Assaf's voice to a tuner, indicating how Assaf has complete control over his voice.Assaf's final performance was his rendition of "Alli al-keffiyeh" ("Raise Your Keffiyeh"), a Palestinian nationalist anthem and called on Palestinians to raise their keffiyehs (a traditional Arab headdress that has become a Palestinian nationalist symbol) and to unite,  in light of the split between the two major Palestinian factions, Hamas and Fatah. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians had watched tuned in to watch his performance. On 22 June Assaf was declared the winner of Arab Idol, winning the most votes and coming ahead of two other competitors, Ahmed Jamal and Farah Youssef, from Egypt and Syria, respectively.  Massive celebrations by Palestinians ensued after the announcement of his victory, including festivities held on the streets of Gaza City, East JerusalemNablusRamallah, Bethlehem, Khan Yunis, Nazareth Lebanon and Jordan.

Mohammed, idolo arabo e simbolo dei rifugiati


di Emma Mancini

Gerusalemme, 24 giugno 2013, Nena News - Mohammed ce l'ha fatta. Sabato sera è stato incoronato "Arab Idol" mandando in visibilio milioni di palestinesi dispersi in tutto il mondo. E mentre l'intera Palestina celebrava per le strade una gioia riservata a pochissime altre personalità, il simbolo di Gaza, la voce forte e limpida dei gazawi, conquistava anche le Nazioni Unite.

A poche ore dalla vittoria di Beirut, Filippo Grandi, commissario generale dell'agenzia dell'Onu per i rifugiati palestinesi, nominava Assaf primo ambasciatore regionale dell'UNRWA per i profughi palestinesi. "A nome dell'UNRWA, mando le mie più sentite congratulazioni a Mohammed e alla sua famiglia - ha detto Grandi - Tutti i palestinesi condividono questo successo. La musica di Mohammed è un linguaggio universale e parla a tutti noi. È fantastico che un rifugiato di Gaza ci unisca tutti in questo modo".

Ancora emozionato per la vittoria del programma tv Arab Idol, Mohammed è stato così travolto da un secondo grande successo: "Sono veramente onorato di diventare ambasciatore dei rifugiati palestinesi - ha commentato il 23enne gazawi, nato in Libia e cresciuto a Khan Younis - I miei ricordi più belli della scuola dell'UNRWA a Gaz,a dove ho avuto l'opportunità di studiare, sono ancora freschi. Da rifugiato, posso capire meglio di chiunque altro le sfide e le opportunità che abbiamo di fronte. Darò il meglio per aiutare l'UNRWA a permettere ad altri giovani di avere le mie stesse chance".

Il "figlio della Palestina" ha saputo dimostrare da solo, da un palco raggiunto scavalcando muri e vincendo l'assedio di Gaza, quanto il popolo palestinese sia ancora profondamente unito. Da tutto il mondo arabo, dai campi profughi palestinesi sparsi in Medio Oriente, sotto forma di voti inviati con un telefonino è giunta forte la voglia di unità e l'orgoglio per le proprie radici.

Un orgoglio spesso disintegrato dalla leadership palestinese, dai litigi e le dimissioni, dall'incapacità di rappresentare con dignità un popolo disperso, ma che è ancora uno. Sabato sera si è festeggiato in tutta la Palestina, da Gaza City a Ramallah, da Betlemme a Gerusalemme Est. Milioni i telespettatori sintonizzati sul canale dell'MBC, mentre maxi schermi venivano installati praticamente ovunque.

Naturalmente, c'è chi tenta di fare propria la vittoria del giovane Assaf, ugola d'oro palestinese: le principali compagnie telefoniche, le banche, le compagnie, hanno tappezzato la Cisgiordania di poster con il volto pulito di Mohammed, tentando di utilizzarlo per farsi facile pubblicità. Anche l'Autorità Palestinese prova a non farsi sfuggire un'occasione d'oro per ripulire un'immagine sporcata da corruzione e incapacità di gestire il Paese: tanti i leader che hanno pubblicato su Facebook e Twitter la foto del cantante, mentre il presidente Mahmoud Abbas (che ha subito assegnato ad Assaf "pieni privilegi diplomatici") definiva la sua vittoria "fonte di orgoglio, successo di tutto il nostro popolo, passo per raggiungere il nostro sogno di una Palestina indipendente con Gerusalemme come capitale".

Ma per oggi va bene così: Assaf ha dimostrato che la Palestina esiste ancora. Dopo un breve ritorno a Gaza, Mohammed canterà nelle principali città della Cisgiordania, rendendo forse possibile - seppur solo da un palco - quello che Hamas e Fatah non sono stati in grado di archiviare per due anni: l'unità delle due enclavi palestinesi.

Fusam فصام




Fusam is the personal music project of composer and guitarist Heny Maatar, from Sfax, Tunisia.
A cinematic, experimental venture fusing electronic elements with ambiances and other instruments.
In denial of musical boundaries, Fusam is a musical quest tending to grasp the universality of the phenomenon of the sound.
Starting his musical endeavor as a drummer, Heny’s percussive tendencies were not the only discourse to communicate his visions to the world.
Raised in the cocoon of Heavy Metal and extreme music background, Heny could enshrine his conception of Metal in his first illustrated work in 2008; ShallIShine “Project: Escape” demo where he defended the musicality and openness of the genre in the middle of a scummy local scene and dire circumstances.
Fusam has a wide range of influences that goes through Baroque, Ambient,
Post-Rock, Extreme Metal, Ethnic, Progressive and Electronica.
Located in Tunisia and collaborated with diverse international talents among which “Surreat East” [Georgia] & “Niidra” [Hungary], and other Tunisian musicians such as “Zied Ghozzia” , “Ynflx” & “Infinite Empty”.
Fusam music is a constantly evolving journey, in which new and fascinating pathways are being explored.
Fusam literally means Schizophrenia in Arabic language, an expression of the disintegrating entity of humanity, the divorce from the real Self and the failure of communication between our species body cells.

Arab tunes mixtape # 12 - So you say there is no arabic experimental music ?!! Vol.2

Another mixtape of electronic music coming from the Arab world. Another piece for the construction of a different imaginary. A selection of music a little more tricky. The experimental sounds of Palestinians multimedia artists ,the electronic processing of Tunisian artists together under the "Sonic resistance for dignity",some old favorites and some pleasant surprises.

Dedicated to the kids of Istanbul and to all those who question the order and power.


Fuck you from the bottom of my heart to : EU, BCE, FMI, the Italian Government, Israeli settlers, all fundamentalist religious groups, Beppe Grillo, all Italian trade unions, Standard & Poor's, Moody's and other similar crap but especially to the district counselor lady (???) Dolores Valandro and to all the subhumans who compose and / or support the Northern League. 


To all other Peace & prosperity.

Cosmic Analog Ensemble




Founded in 2008, the Ensemble consists of Lebanese musician Charif Megarbane ( Former member of the group HEROES & VILLAINS) on all instruments. The result is what one could call analogue music for the 21st century: gritty free-jazz, soul soundtracks, cinematic beats and cosmic vibes straight from the tape. He is fascinated by the idea of improvising whilst overdubbing himself in different configurations: jazz tracks (piano, drums, double-bass, vibraphone, guitar etc.) or in a more electronic, underground hip-hop style.
What makes this man unique is that he records most of his stuff and on cassette tapes and tries to stay away from computers as much as he can:
" I don't like the visuals associated with it, playing music should be done with your eyes closed or with your eyes on your instrument. In my case, the computer has never been my instrument really".
The Ensemble released Concrete Abstract: The Mundane and the Cosmic Vol.1-2 in late 2008. The album features 31 tracks, recorded in Lebanon and Canada. It was followed in 2009 by the first three volumes of the Infants-Children-Teenagers-Adults-Elders series in 2009. The project was recorded on 4-track cassette and reflects the Trojan-reggae side of the Ensemble. 
Navigations Nocturnes: The Mundane and the Cosmic Vol. 5-6 was released in April 2011.
. Cosmic Analog Ensemble ''Plays Fairouz'' is a 25+ tracks-musical mosaic which incorporates samples from Lebanese superstar Fairouz's back catalogue and classic breaks; a free, improvised association of Fairouz's celestial voice and gritty grooves in Mono format. The LP is a tribute to both Fairouz and Ziad Rahbany's legacy as true Lebanese artists.

Very prolific artist Charif Megarbane has continued to produce albums of excellent quality with the brand hisstology. All albums are available for free download on the bandcamp site. Just tell them your email and you'll get the link for the download.
