Veil Of Bidaya

A swirling tapestry of Arabian psychedelic soul, Bazaar Noir’s debut album Veil Of Bidaya by Shuko (Anderson .Paak, Evidence, Chance The Rapper), Roberto Di Gioia (BJ The Chicago Kid, Max Herre) and Jan Krause (The Poets Of Rhythm).

This is a journey through sound, spirit and a lot of tape hiss. Recorded entirely with vintage analogue gear, the album bridges East and West, past and present - blending hypnotic grooves, dusty desert funk and cosmic soul into a cinematic debut that feels both timeless and otherworldly.

At its heart lies the luminous focus track ‘Dreams of Gold’, featuring acclaimed Cairo vocalist Heide Al Sabban. Her voice floats like incense over the 1970s soul track’s reverb-drenched guitars and boogie analogue synths, weaving a tale of longing and transcendence that captures the album’s essence - the search for beauty behind the veil
