Visions al 2ard

Description

The electronic music of French duo Leila Jiqqir and Romain Henry a.k.a. TAXI KEBAB reveals influences of krautrock, psyche and techno, all the while haunted by the spectre of Leilas North African roots. Reclaiming her Moroccan fathers Darija language, its through a liberating poetic register that her voice interacts with the acid arpeggios and rippling layers of Romain Henrys experiments with machines.

On their debut EP Visions al 2ard (Visions of the Land), synthesizers, drum machines, modulated guitars and amplified buzuq collide as TAXI KEBAB venture on a night ride through the Moroccan countryside, unveiling their self-described psyche desoriental sound.
