iraqi band babylon trio from brussels plays an electrified ravey mix of contemporary iraqi and arabic music styles, such as choubi choubi, dabke, maqam and electronic hybrids that put the dancefloor on fire. their debut album “habibi” features songs about their old life in iraq and new life in brussels, belgium, with topics such as separation from loved ones, love, beauty, honour and pure arabic party bangers. this year will mark the power of the contemporary iraqi street sound of babylon trio throughout belgium, europe and beyond.

jamie paton has been a regular fixture on emotional especial since the label first came to light, conjuring up a seductive blend of leftfield dance music with a broad range of influences. this time around he s turning out some of his remixes, leading in with the sweaty, dense throb of sexy merlins see you in the dark. guy schlaloms habibi by way of contrast becomes a lighter confection peppered with bubbly synth lines and an almost poppy persuasion. blancmanges feel me has a more cosmic lilt in its voluminous tones, and overdrive by gatos negros drifts out on an off-kilter kind of boogie for all manner of deviant dancers to get head-nodding to.

taminos phenomenal voice, ranging from a deep croon to a towering falsetto, goes right to the bone. he combines the tradition of the greatest singer songwritters with his own arabic roots.
