Love and Revenge
Drawing on the large repertoire of Middle-eastern pop and Egyptian film from the 1940s to 1990s, Love and Revenge create a fertile hybrid between the joys of the past and modern aesthetics. Rayess Bek remixes ancient melodies and break-beat blows, with the electrifying support of Mehdi Haddab on oud and Julien Perraudeau’s hypnotic synths.
Love & Revenge’s repertoire pays homage to Arab culture and its popular idols from a lost epoch. The group revisits the Middle-East’s precious cinematic heritage as well as its hugely successful songs, such as those of the Iraqi Kadhem Saher, Egyptian Nagat El-Saghira, and the major composer Abdel Wahad.
