Our Take

Welcome to the golden streets of Beirut, where the music flows like the rivers of whiskey in a dive bar at midnight. Various Artists have compiled a new collection of sounds that will transport you to the heart of the Lebanese capital faster than you can say "habibi".

From the enchanting melodies of Fairuz to the modern beats of Mashrou' Leila, this album is a vibrant tapestry of the rich musical heritage of Beirut. Each track is like a little slice of baklava for your ears, sweet and satisfying with just the right amount of crunch.

The standout track for me has to be "Ya Rayah" by Rachid Taha, a hypnotic blend of North African rhythms and French lyrics that will have you swaying in your seat like a palm tree in a desert storm. It's a reminder of the power of music to transcend borders and languages, bringing people together in a shared groove.

So, grab yourself a shawarma, pour a glass of arak, and press play on Golden Beirut. Let the music take you on a journey through the streets and souks of this vibrant city, where the old mixes with the new in a symphony of sound. You won't regret it, habibi.
