Ana We Yak and Mahmouma are 2 new songs from our next EP: "Maktoub" (destine) featuring Anwar Souini on vocals, Jon Simons on Trombone and guitar, Tim Paul Weiner on bass, Jason Kenyon on drums, Boujemaa Razgui on percussions, Graham Tobias was the sound ingenior and me on sax and guitar.

L’amour en banlieue is from our 2006 CD "Mabrouka" (Blessings or Good Luck)
This version of Koumouyanass (let’s get up) was recorded live with a small mini-disk-no mixing- in a reherseal room at Berklee (Boston) featuring Walid Zairi on bass, Lucas Leto on drums, Jon Simons on trombone, Alan Perez on percussions and me on guitar.
On Shaabi Gamelan I basically play and loop the bass line, percussions (or sometime a drum machine), & guitar on my looper (RC-20 Boss pedal) then solo over it with my sax or guitar...everything is first take so it stay real and spontaneous.
