Long-time friends and collaborators in the Musique de Fête collective, they finally decided to merge their worlds and inspirations to come up with a common vision: "Mektoub 303".
Mektoub has brought Bab and KasbaH together around what they like to call "Rai & Bass": a hybrid style where traditional Algerian music meets club music.
For their first opus, they surrounded themselves with two generations of singers in order to deliver 5 tracks, as a declaration of love to the Maghreb. The two producers decided to invite the singers Majid Soula, and Leïla Jiqqir of Taxi Kebab.
The two producers invite you to celebrate North African culture. Sometimes melodic, sometimes groovy, often techno, this project is a clever mix of the worlds of KasbaH, Bab and their guests.
The aptly named “It’s Time to Dance” is driven by hard-hitting percussion and topped with a delightfully impish vocal. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 14, 2023
