fortuna co-founder kalbata takes the controls for this new, middle eastern techno banger! al-shark is a banging arab farfisa excursion played frantically on an analog techno rhythm section. it s the first release from the fortuna camp which is not a reissue, but worry not, this could easily be an ancient lebanese proto-house experiment unearthed from a dusty reel.for the b-side kalbata takes things even further with a tribal relick of the original, placing us in a voodoo ceremony where ghosts of sinners come to dance. already on heavy rotation by gilles peterson and acid arab, this anthemic 12- is not to be missed! limited vinyl!
