Short info:

"To Syria, With Love", Omar Souleyman's new album released on June 2nd on Diplo's label Mad Decent. The record introduces itself as the follower of his 2015 al bum "Bahdeni Nami", and features new "techno" elements, thanks to arranger Hasan Alo. The first available track is "Ya bnayya", which means "girl" in English. Here, Omar Souleyman remembers the time where he fell in love with a beautiful brunette on first sight with a background of feasting drums.

Souleyman, who already collaborated with Björk and Four Tet, began his carreer as a wedding singer, with almost 500 live albums before the civil war bursts out in Syria in 2011. He moves in Turkey and releases in 2013 his album Wenu Wenu. In 2015, the album Bahdeni Nami gets an extraordinary amount of positive critics, of which The Guardian's just below.

CD bonus track "Tensana" is exclusive to this Because Music album release.

"Melodies are both abrasive and ebullient, chattering endlessly like raucous birdsong"
