The American label will reissue the single “Atfalouna” by singer-songwriter Hassan Ideddir, originally released in 1989, with two bonus tracks. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Born of Berber parents in Morocco, Hassan Ideddir has been passionate about music since his early childhood. In 1987, he played a series of sold-out concerts in Casablanca, Rabat and Marrakech all for the benefit of a children’s aid association. This success allowed him to obtain a contract with a record company and to go to Paris to record his first single in 1988: “Aftalouna”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Published in 1989 by Warner Elektra Atlantic, “Aftalouna” mixes digital synthesizers, samples, female choirs… around the suave and warm voice of Hassan Ideddir. The result is a resolutely Moroccan synthpop track, composed and arranged by Hassan Ideddir, like all the tracks of the reissue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main track of the project is followed by its instrumental version, and two bonus tracks that were not on the original edition: “Ibini”, a downtempo track that sounds Italo disco. As well as “Ydouchababe”, an electro track topped with funky guitars, electronic claps and a horn riff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To accompany the vinyl, Dark Entries added a photo of Hassan Ideddir in the form of a postcard and the lyrics of the songs in Arabic \/ English. And to top it all off, all proceeds from this release will go to two charities: Sphere, which supports the queer community in Ukraine; and Children’s Relief Fund, which provides emergency humanitarian care to children in Gaza, Palestine.

“Atfalouna” available April 1. Preorder here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
