Yasmine Hamdan is a trailblazer of Arabic indie electronic pop and a key figure in the underground music scene, blurring the lines between traditional sounds, electronic textures and hypnotic melodies. From her early days with the duo Soapkills to her solo releases on Crammed Discs, and collaborations with the likes of Mirwais and Jim Jarmusch, Yasmine Hamdan has forged a unique path and found worldwide acclaim. Her latest record I Remember I Forget is out now via Crammed Discs. In this mix she digs deep into the Arab world’s golden era, with a collection of rare gems spanning Arabic jazz and lounge, Nubian funk and soul, Afro-Arab rock, classic Lebanese ballads, disco-infused pop, and modern retro grooves.
