Deena Abdelwahed: Jbal Rrsas live

Deena Abdelwahed reimagines what Arab club music can be through styles such as techno, bass and experimental music. Exploring the different layers that Eastern dance music can offer, the Tunisian DJ presented the album Jbal Rrsas live for the first time in 2023 at Rewire, Sonar, Mutek Montréal and Guess Who.

Deena Abdelwahed has been recovering the elements that make up the diversity of Arabic music, crossing electronic, avant-garde and experimental sounds. This presentation will feature multi-instrumentist Khalil Hentati.

This performance forms part of the programme for the first edition of Fogo Fátuo.
