(World, Ethnic, Arabic, Rock) Albaitil Ashwai - Nuun - 2018, MP3, 320 kbps

Nuun (ن) by Albaitil Ashwai is an amalgamation of Arabic sounds intertwined with contemporary rock elements that are a perfect reflection of the band's new-generation Ammani identity. Sufi inspired lyrics weave through often dark haunting melodies, countered with psychedelic rock guitar riffs and stabs of reggae, all smoothly blended into well-rounded compositions and instrumental arrangements.

In their debut full length album, Albaitil Ashwai deliver a pristine sound, ladled with questions and thoughts that go through the mind of a wondering human who has reached enlightenment. And through Nuun, they take you on a fluid journey, ebbing between contrasting energetic tracks and soothing, trance-inducing music that is decorated with Arabic rhythms.
