Bedouin Burger – Ma Li Beit / برجر بدوي – ما لي بيت (PopArabia, 2024)
In a world where ancient nomadic traditions meet the globalized palate, Bedouin Burger‘s Ma Li Beit presents a harmonious mix of two contrasting worlds, where folktronica meets traditional musical forms. Lynn Adib (Syria) and Zeid Hamdan (Lebanon), the creative minds behind this innovative project, bridge the gap between the nomadic desert life and today’s cultural mainstream.
Drawing inspiration from the frugal yet flavorful lifestyle of desert nomads, Zeid concocts irresistible dance rhythms, deeply steeped in the traditions, that pulse with an entrancing energy as well as charming Middle Eastern melodies and luminous atmospheres. Meanwhile, Lynn delivers spellbinding, soaring, expressive Arabic vocals.
