≡ BAB L' BLUZ
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
New album: "Swaken"
Armed with their electric guembris, Bab L' Bluz resonates a mixture of rhythms of Gnawa trance, Hassani songs from southern Morocco and Chaâbi polyrhythms, thus propelling their music into the magnetic fields of psychedelic rock and the swirls of incense.
Led by a Doukkalia woman, the group wants to carry a revolution in attitude as part of the Moroccan youth movement "Nayda", a new wave of committed artists and musicians who draw inspiration from local heritage and sing texts of freedom in the Moroccan dialect -Arabic, Darija.
Very active since its creation, the power quartet travels stages around the globe to distill its hypnotic riffs and spread its mystical and liberating headbang-based frenzy to its audience - true group signature. Poetic and powerful, Bab L' Bluz is in itself an expanding universe, a sonic territory that transcends limits.
In 2020, Bab L' Bluz makes a sensational entrance onto the musical scene with the album “Nayda! », praised positively by critics and in particular by: Mojo Top 10 world Album of the year, Songlines Best albums of 2020, The New York Times, Vogue Arabia, BBC, Le Monde, Financial Time, Pan African Music, Uncut, Radio Nova or even Arte Concert... It was in 2021 that Bab L' Bluz won its first Songlines Music Awards

"Still, it's good Gnawa music and its totem instruments, the awicha and the guembri, which are at the heart of this opus mixing blues, funk and chaabi "We use the awicha like a guitar and the guembri like a bass, both tuned differently", continues the musician. Illustration with the captivating and psychedelic clip of Ila Mata, a piece in classical Arabic." (The world)
"Playing on the registers of rootedness and openness, Bab L'Bluz concentrates in the album "Nayda!" all the passion of his hybrid creativity." (Le Point Afrique)
"In its first album, Nayda, the group Bab L' Bluz makes the rhythms of gnaoua trance resonate in the magnetic fields of rock and the swirls of incense. Poetic and powerful ." (Pan African Music)
"In Arabic, "bab" means "door": Bab L'Bluz opens to us here the doors of the blues of the Sahel, the centuries-old music of the Gnawa people, bearer of trance and of hypnosis in the same way as the psychedelic rhythms of Santana or Jefferson Airplane, claimed influences. A first album, Nayda!, will be released on June 5 by Real World, a celebration of mixtures of cultures, preceded by this title: “Ila Mata”. , a song of peace for the people of the world, carried by a slow groove “fed by the surf of the waves of the Atlantic Ocean”."
