Rough-hewn and exhilarating, EL Khat's second album "Aalbat Alawi Op

99" is a deep dive into leader Eyal el Wahab's Yemenite roots and their inspired reimaginings. A careening orchestra of percussion, horns, strings, electricity and el Wahab's own DIY instruments.

Mesmerizing retro-futurist sounds.

“Joyously mixing authentically Arabic musical tropes with ethnomusicological forgeries. Vigorous psychedelic stomps...an exciting new discovery.” -- Uncut
