I've been writing my own album for about a year now. Usually I'm a guitarist in bands, or do acoustic singer stuff by myself.
So I've made this mix of industrial with a middle eastern vibe throughout.
I've been very hesitant to start recording vocals despite having lyrics all done.
I'm going to have a go tonight. Fuck it. Let's see how it plays out.
Can you give me an arabic song that I can slip into the Spotify queue that will surprise the man. Preferably something cheesy with numerous habibis in there.
Genuinely, yes I can lol. Gimme a few days.
I can't wait to hear your originals. Do you know of an arabic song by another artist that I can play now?
Anything by this discount arab Ricky Martin
Perfect ๐ ๐ ๐ I put a song on and he smiled and said "what the fuck is this?" and I showed him your comment "discount Arab Ricky Martin" and we both started cracking up. He's now put him in favourites ๐. Alif shook runs.
My absolute pleasure. I tried Arabic pop and couldn't handle it. It can be so damn cringe lol
Beautiful. Thank you.
@Gibsonisafluffybutt @CEOofmyhouse56 CEO: Are you looking specifically for Arabic music or cheesy ethnic music more broadly?
Because if it's the latter, then I have some Lithuanian music that'll be perfect for your partner...
I was looking for something cheesy and arabic to make the man laugh so he has to translate it while shaking his head and laughing. Has to be on Spotify because that's what we are listening to.
@Gibsonisafluffybutt @Seagoon_ I'm genuinely curious to hear your album. I was a big fan of System of a Down back in the day, and how they jumped between Middle Eastern music and rock. Will your album do something similar?
