About "Lala Khaliouha Tbane" by Jalal El Hamdaoui
Jalal El Hamdaoui's 'Lala Khaliouha Tbane' crackles with the heat of a Chaabi celebration, hand drums and voices entwined in joyous call-and-response. Yet beneath the revelry, a thread of longing weaves throughβa communal memory of what's been lost. It's dance music with a bittersweet aftertaste.
