The first reissue in nearly 50 years of Assa'd Khoury's cult 1978 instrumental masterpiece, originally released on the legendary Lebanese label Byblos. Curated by Dikraphone's Ahmed Khalil and reissued in partnership with Byblos Records founder Mozart Chahine, this album showcases Oriental classics reimagined through Khoury's visionary funky electronic keyboards. Features the essential dancefloor anthem "Al Ghaba" with its irresistible breakbeat — a highly coveted record that defined an era of Middle Eastern electronic music innovation.
