Description


Rough-hewn and exhilarating, EL Khat's second album Aalbat Alawi Op.99 is a deep dive into leader Eyal el Wahab's Yemenite roots and their inspired re-imaginings. A careening orchestra of percussion, horns, strings, electricity and el Wahab's own DIY instruments. Mesmerizing retro-futurist sounds. Joyously mixing authentically Arabic musical tropes with ethnomusicological forgeries.

Vigorous psychedelic stomps...an exciting new discovery. -- Uncut
