Rami Gabriel is a composer and producer whose work embodies sonic hybridity and experimentation. He weaves the oud, guitar, and electric buzuq through blues, jazz, dub, lo-fi industrial, post-punk, and traditional Arabic musical forms.

tunderizer

new lp from SOOPER RECORDS

Rami Gabriel’s second solo LP Tunderizer focuses the harsh experimentalism of post-punk industrial upon the intimate sphere of home. Like shadows crossing through mirrors, a mesh of lo-fi noise art and field recordings obscures expertly tuned songwriting. Tunderizer fires in all registers, from irrepressible melody to deconstructive static, from country to tarab, skronk to delta blues.

June 18 – Jazz duo with Phillip Akofri, Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies
