It Is Written

About Me

'Maktub' is an old arabic word meaning "It is written". It's from the book "The Alchemist" by"Paulo Coelho" which is pretty insprational. Check it out if you haven't already read it! It describes Maktub as "the language of the soul of the universe". music is the universal language; understood by everyone regardless of age, background or culture and the only form of communication absolutely everyone can share. It really brings people together and can create amazing collective experiences. Anyway, if you love music, you already know all this. We hope you like our contribution.
