To Syria, With Love Remixes

Legendary Syrian singer Omar Souleyman calls on two iconic artists - duo Simian Mobile Disco and Barcelona’s DJ Seinfeld - to deliver remixes of tracks from his most recent album To Syria, With Love. DJ Seinfeld imparts lo fi house flavours on Khayen and Simian Mobile Disco add a hypnotic tribal feel to Mawal, making this Record Store Day exclusive vinyl a must have for true house fans. Along with the remixes, the vinyl also includes Souleyman’s latest single, Tensana, an eight minute long celebration of dance and Middle Eastern soundscapes. Omar Souleyman started his career as a wedding singer in Syria, recording over 500 cassettes that are now staples in the country’s folk-pop scene. Parlaying his dabke into the breakneck techno realm of electronic music, the artist is now known for his high octane sound across the Western music front.
