In Morocco, there is something in the air, a sort of intoxicating essence that makes you feel you are tip toeing a knife edge between the real and surreal. This psychedelia seems to reside inherently in the culture, or more accurately, the many cultures that color the country of the setting sun. Though often written off as an Arabic country (in which there are a vast amount of sub-divisions), Morocco is also very, very Amazigh (Berber), as well as Gnawa and Sahrawi; a diversity that shines a kaleidoscope of light across the country. Here is a mix-tape of mostly vintage Moroccan music, with a peppering of the modern here and there. From Arabic to Amazigh to Gnawa, from the Rif Mountains to the coast of Essaouira and Agadir, from Western inspired rock & roll to reverbed trance and auto-tuned dance music, this is a little look at what makes Morocco so audibly delicious, intriguing, and downright addictive. 1.

Sumo Hamed from Moroccan collective and label V.I.V. returns to his love for classic IDM to which he pays homage through different compositions by nailing the greatest quality of the genre: the fine balance between complexity and catchiness. The tracks adopt different structures throughout, never really settling for a single rhythm or BPM.
