Our Take

Emel Mathlouthi's latest album, "Everywhere We Looked Was Burning," is a triumphant fusion of traditional North African sounds and modern electronic beats. From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where the desert meets the dancefloor, and Mathlouthi's powerful vocals guide you through each track like a musical sherpa.

The opening track, "Rescuer," sets the tone for the entire album with its hypnotic beat and haunting melodies. Mathlouthi's voice soars over the music like a majestic eagle riding the thermals, reaching heights that most singers can only dream of. It's a reminder that she is not just a musician, but a force of nature.

Tracks like "Footsteps" and "Kaddait El Haki" showcase Mathlouthi's ability to seamlessly blend the ancient with the modern, creating a sound that is both timeless and cutting-edge. It's like taking a ride in a DeLorean and ending up in a souk in Marrakech, surrounded by sights, sounds, and smells that are both familiar and foreign.

In a world where music can often feel formulaic and bland, Emel Mathlouthi stands out like a beacon of creativity and originality. "Everywhere We Looked Was Burning" is a testament to her talent and vision, and a reminder that sometimes the best music is the kind that defies categorisation. So do yourself a favour and dive into this sonic odyssey - you won't regret it.
