Wael Jegham AKA Ghoula غولة

Producer, composer, engineer, multi-instrumentalist and beat-maker, Wael Jegham is a young man from Tunisia who divides his life between the native country and France.
Musically active from the first decade of the 2000s was marked by his sonic illustrations representing a Maghreb sparkling and inventive .

One of the first projects in which he participated was the group called "A5tuna", a collective of artists from different musical experiences that has revolutionized the concept of Tunisian pop, creating a unique sound debtor both to the musical tradition of North African (Rai, Gnawa, Chaabi ) as to the Balkan and punk music.

Active in producing music for television and cinema (he made several soundtracks for short films and documentaries) took over in 2012 the pseudonym Ghoula. Eclectic and versatile musician, knowing how to move smoothly both in the field of acoustic music as in electronics and beat-making, Wael Jegham with his work revises brazenly Maghreb sound creating a fascinating alchemy between tradition and modernity that combines experimentation electronic and traditional instruments.

His musical versatility has led him to work from 2013 with Arabstazy project, a collective of musicians and video makers created by Mettani (real name Shamseddine Omoku) in order to promote electronic underground scene in the Arab world.

In 2016 he made for the label Shouka his first album titled "Hlib el Ghoula." The title (literally "The monster's milk ") is an idiomatic metaphor used in the Tunisian dialect to indicate something very rare and precious,a desired thing and not found (for example, in reference to a grocery store one could state that sells even Hlib el Ghoula, to indicate that you can find anything there).

This first solo work was created as a result of the passion of Ghoula for old vinyls of North Africa, the real treasure that is referenced by the title of the album, whose music is sampled and processed electronically by Wael Jegham creating in this way an intergenerational dialogue, allowing the oldest memories resurface to reveal to the younger generation the infinite creativity of the musical heritage of the Maghreb.

This particular sound is a real journey through the symbols and myths of that giant mosaic that is the musical heritage of North Africa.
To the project, in addition to the same Wael Jegham, participated: Ahmed Ben Ali (Vocals) , Rabii Brahim (voice, tbal, carcabous) , DJ Gamra (Turntables), Mohamed Amine Khaldi (violin, rababa, bendir), Amine Metani (bass and electric guitar, tbal, video editing) ,Lotfi Kriden(krakebs), Maher Sassi( percussions ), Marwa Abayed (vocals )









 

 
Produttore, compositore, ingegnere, polistrumentista e beat-maker, Wael Jegham è un giovane proveniente dalla Tunisia che divide la sua vita tra il paese natale e la Francia.
Attivo musicalmente dalla della prima decade degli anni 2000 si è distinto per le sue illustrazioni sonore che rappresentano un Maghreb inventivo spumeggiante.

Uno dei primi progetti al quale ha partecipato è stato il gruppo chiamato “ A5tuna” , un collettivo di artisti provenienti da diverse esperienze musicali che ha rivoluzionato il concetto di pop tunisino creando un suono unico debitore tanto alla tradizione musicale nordafricana (Rai, Gnawa, Chaabi ) quanto alla musica balcanica e al punk.

Attivo nella produzione di musiche  per televisione e cinema ( ha realizzato varie colonne sonore per cortometraggi e documentari) ha assunto nel 2012 lo pseudonimo di Ghoula. Musicista eclettico e versatile , perfettamente a suo agio sia nel campo della musica acustica quanto in quello dell’elettronica e del beat-making , Wael Jegham con il suo lavoro revisiona sfacciatamente il suono del Maghreb creando un affascinante alchimia tra tradizione e modernità che coniuga sperimentazione elettronica e strumenti tradizionali.

La sua versatilità musicale lo ha portato a collaborare dal 2013 al progetto Arabstazy, un collettivo di musicisti e video maker creato da Mettani ( vero nome Shamseddine Omoku) con lo scopo di promuovere la scena elettronica underground del mondo arabo.

Nel 2016 ha realizzato per l’etichetta Shouka il suo primo album intitolato   "Hlib el Ghoula”. Il titolo ( letteralmente “il latte dell’orchessa”) è una metafora idiomatica utilizzata nel dialetto tunisino per indicare qualcosa di estremamente raro e prezioso, una qualsiasi cosa ambita e non trovata ( ad esempio , in riferimento ad un negozio di alimentari si potrebbe affermare che vende perfino Hlib el Ghoula, per indicare che li vi si può trovare qualsiasi cosa) .


Questo primo lavoro da solista nasce come risultato della grande passione di Ghoula per i vecchi vinili del Nord Africa, il vero tesoro a cui fa riferimento il titolo dell’album, le cui musiche vengono campionate e trattate elettronicamente da Wael Jegham che crea in questo modo un dialogo intergenerazionale , permettendo ai ricordi più antichi di riaffiorare per rivelare alle giovani generazioni l’ infinita creatività del patrimonio musicale del Maghreb.

Questo Mix electro acustico orientale si propone come un vero e proprio viaggio attraverso i simboli ed i miti di quel gigantesco mosaico che è il patrimonio musicale del Nord Africa .

Al progetto , oltre allo stesso Wael Jegham , hanno partecipato :Ahmed Ben Ali (Voce) , Rabii Brahim (voce, tbal, carcabous) , DJ Gamra (Turntables), Mohamed Amine Khaldi (violino, rababa, bendir), Amine Metani (basso echitarra elettrica , tbal, video editing) ,Lotfi Kriden (krakebs), Maher Sassi ( percussioni ), Marwa Abayed (voce )

Hany Mehanna هاني مهنى

Hani Mehanna is a composer, multi-instrumentalist Egyptian born August 15, 1947 in Sharqiya. Considered one of the best keyboard players of his era has carried out research work in the field of classic sounds dedicated to belly dancing. He began his musical career in the late '60s after his return to Egypt following a course of studies carried out in Italy in the field of composition. Has worked with the greatest artists of among which the queen of Arab song Umm Kulthum ( the keyboard part in the song "Leila el Hub") and her male counterparts, Abdel Halim Hafez, in the famous song "Qariaty el Fingian ".

For its modern style was often assimilated to Omar Khorshid his friend and comrade in various executions.
From the mid-70s he has been actively dedicated to the production of many soundtracks for the Egyptian film production. Activity that still continues today.


His best works are to be found in those years. Among the achievements that are preferred there are the album made with violinist Hamouda Ali titled "Princess of Cairo: music for belly dance with Nagwa Fouad" providing the instrumental basis of the evolution of the famous belly dancer Nagwa Fouad and an album made in his name entitled "El Agaeb Rakasat El Sabaa" (the Miracles of the 7 Dances) which is perhaps the highest level reached by the art of the musician.


Set in a beautiful musical Hani Mehanna has been transformed over the years into a real businessman. He has created a label discography called "Golden Cassette for Art Production" that will launch several artists including the now famous Tunisian singer Zekra and Moroccan star Samira Said who married in 1988 and they divorced in 1994.

In studies made by him at Giza it will be recorded by the British group Led Zeppelin the song "Kashmir" content on their album "Physical Graffiti".

Figure prominently in the Egyptian music scene in May of 2013 he was elected president of the Federation of Trade Unions of Artists .

In 2014 he was sentenced to five years in prison following an accusation of illegal appropriation of public funds. Following a settlement will remain in prison for only six months.

Hani Mehanna è un compositore , polistrumentista egiziano nato il 15 Agosto 1947 a Sharqiya . Considerato uno dei migliori tastieristi della sua epoca ha svolto un lavoro di ricerca ed innovazione musicale nel campo delle sonorità classiche dedicate alla danza del ventre . Ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale verso la fine degli anni ‘60 dopo il suo ritorno in Egitto in seguito ad un corso di studi svolto in Italia nel campo della composizione . Ha collaborato con i maggiori artisti dell’epoca tra i quali spiccano la regina del canto arabo Umm Kulthum (è sua la parte di tastiera nella canzone “Leila el Hub” ) ed il suo corrispettivo maschile, Abdel Halim Hafez , nel famoso brano “ Qariaty el Fingian”.
Per il suo stile moderno è stato spesso accomunato a Omar Khorshid suo amico e compagno in varie esecuzioni.
Dalla seconda metà degli ‘70 si è dedicato attivamente alla realizzazione di svariate colonne sonore per i film di produzione egiziana. Attività che prosegue ancora oggi.

I suoi lavori migliori sono da ricercare proprio in quegli anni. Tra le realizzazioni che si fanno preferire vi sono l’album registrato con il violinista Hamouda Ali intitolato “ Princess of Cairo: music for belly dance with Nagwa Fouad “ che fornisce la base strumentale alle evoluzioni della famosa danzatrice del ventre Nagwa Fouad ed un album realizzato a suo nome intitolato “ Agaeb El Rakasat El Sabaa” (The Miracles of the 7 Dances) che rappresenta forse il livello più alto toccato dall’arte di questo musicista.
Ben inserito nell’ambiente musicale Hani Mehanna si è trasformato negli anni in un vero e proprio uomo d’affari. Ha dato vita ad un etichetta discografica chiamata “Golden Cassette for Art Production” che lancerà vari artisti oggi famosi tra i quali la cantante tunisina Zekra e la star marocchina Samira Said che sposerà nel 1988 e dalla quale divorzierà nel 1994.
Negli studi da lui realizzati a Giza verrà registrato dal gruppo inglese Led Zeppelin il brano “Kashmir” contenuto nel loro album “Physical Graffiti “.

Figura prominente nel panorama musicale egiziano nel maggio del 2013 è stato eletto presidente della Federazione dei Sindacati degli Artisti.
Nel 2014 è stato condannato a 5 anni di reclusione in seguito ad un accusa di appropriazione illegale di fondi pubblici. In seguito ad un accomodamento resterà in prigione per soli 6 mesi.

Dalida nasce a Choubrah (alle porte del Cairo) in una grande comunità italiana, da genitori calabresi originari di Serrastretta, in provincia di Catanzaro, mediana fra due fratelli, Orlando e Bruno. Il padre, Pietro, era primo violino all'Opera del Cairo.
A diciassette anni vince il concorso di bellezza Miss Ondine e, poi, Miss Egitto che le apre le porte del mondo del cinema. In " La regina delle piramidi" , girato nel 1954, fu controfigura di Joan Collins ; nel 1954 entra a far parte del cast di "Le Masque de Toutankhamon" (La maschera di Tutankhamon) e di "Sigarah wa kas" (Un bicchiere, una sigaretta).
Nel 1956, ispirandosi al film del 1949 Sansone e Dalila, adotta il nome d'arte Dalila, che cambia in seguito in Dalida (poco dopo il suo arrivo a Parigi, su consiglio dello scrittore Albert Machard ) e registrail suo primo disco su vinile con " Madona", versione francese di "Barco negro" di Amalia Rodrigues, al quale seguirà "Bambino" (traduzione della canzone napoletana Guaglione), che ebbe grande successo arrivando prima in Francia per 39 settimane nel 1957, tant'è che Dalida fu soprannominata mademoiselle Bambino. Con "Bambino" Dalida vince il suo primo disco d'oro.

Per tutti gli anni 60,70 e 80 proseguirà la sua carriera di attrice e cantante con notevoli consensi esibendosi in tutta Europa e in Egitto, eseguendo brani di diversi autori e di diversa estrazione.
La sua vita privata è costellata da diverse disavventure che contribuiranno notevolmente a fiaccare la sua voglia di vivere. Muore infatti suicida la notte fra il 2 e il 3 maggio 1987.

L’anno precedente alla sua morte l’artista intraprende un viaggio al Cairo, nei luoghi della sua infanzia, per l'interpretazione del personaggio di Saddika nel film "Le sixième jour " (Il sesto giorno) del regista egiziano Youssef Chahine.
Per la prima internazionale del film si sceglie un cinema a Choubra, il quartiere dove la
cantante ha vissuto da bambina.
In concomitanza con questo evento viene pubblicata in Egitto una cassetta che contiene vari brani da lei interpretati in lingua araba . La cassetta sarà ristampata nel 2003 su Cd in una veste più accattivante intitolata "Dalida Sings Arabic".

Nel 2009 è apparsa una nuova versione intitolata " Dalida Arabian Songs" ampliata con pezzi nuovi e remix di alcuni vecchi brani, confezionata in una veste ancora più accattivante
