Middle Eastern Underground
I spent a couple weeks in Cairo not too long ago- and didnt have a way to rip the more underground -cairo-pop and oldskool cd's that were everywhere- Anybody have any Artist recommendations or digital/online sources of crusty arabic treasures and old-skool collections from anywhere in the middle east. (Beirut/Cairo/Saudi Penninsula/ etc.... ) i'm only mildly obsessed with the melodies...
Yemen, Lebanon, Filastine, Syria
