More Info

A live tape of singer Imad Majlawi, performing successive sets of attaba and dabke characterized by pulsing rhythms and a keyboard so multi-voiced we almost believe it's more than one musical instrument at once. While the internet doesn't retain information about Imad Majlawi's origins or personal life, we know that he was heavily present in the 1990s and 2000s at parties and weddings in central and northern Syrian countryside, specializing in attaba and collaborating with its most prominent stars like Ahmad Tilawi.
