More Info
In this cassette, we listen to one of the directions that Syrian pop could have taken at the start of the new century. Waleed Al Agha sings a series of new songs composed specifically for him by Amer Abu Al Nour, combining light romantic lyrics and dance rhythms heavy with bass and primarily arranged on keyboards. A pleasant format, radio-friendly, and suitable for wide segments of listeners. Waleed Al Agha comes from rural Aleppo province. He has maintained a steady presence in the Syrian shaabi scene since the 1990s, and is considered one of the accomplished names in the field of attaba in rural Aleppo, alongside his performance of a wide spectrum of Syrian shaabi music styles.
