Something More Real, Something Very Arab #Jalasat


When Karaoke music eventually goes away, the only thing fans of Arabic music will be pleased with this something more authentic Arabic music--the real melodies are slow. You cannot have an appointment when you listen to those songs, you have to be relaxed and have to want to enjoy oneself. This is about enjoying music in a cozy and warm surrounding. No loud speakers, no fancy pants, just good music and people who want to kick back and take it in

Checkout this very ear-pleasing music made on the spot, no computers or what's not. Just the good old music instruments (lute anyone?) a talented person who is there to sing for hours, surrounded by those who appreciate the music and those who want to have a good time. See Morccan Donia Batma--from the Arab Idol success be the live of the part.

I am not talking about the distant past, but rather speaking of the Jalasat style concerts popular in the Gulf. Where dozens of fans sit and enjoy great music in a kickback space. It's an intimate space where mid-aged can enjoy themselves  dance with other dudes ant not worry about losing their stature--they are doing something traditional
