mandr8ke starts with more polyrhythmic jazz expressions, then goes into more pop/r&B groove/loops towards the end. really appreciate the layered production of the beats. Favorite track: brother don't.

about

"shaghara lemoune", arabic for lemon tree, is the debut full length project from egyptian-american bassoonist and producer yousef el-magharbel. eleven songs entirely made on bassoon—harmonies, bass, drums, everything.

shuffling nimbly through jazz, r&b, and beats, yousef’s album is a window into egyptian family life and culture. he uses the motif of a lemon tree in the backyard of his family home to explore vernacular expressions + dynamics (between self & others) that reflect his upbringing and ecology.

written, recorded, mixed, & produced by yousef el-magharbel

mastering: zeroh
front cover: zekkereya el-magharbel
executive production + design: yousef hilmy

Universal Beings

I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900
