“Atfalouna” by Hassan Iddedir

“Atfalouna”—the 1988 debut single by Moroccan artist Hassan Iddedir—is getting re-released by Dark Entries Records. Remastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley last year, the single builds for half its length with digital synths, drum machines, and entrancing, chanting female vocals before Iddedir’s voice takes center stage. Another worldly, Italo-disco-adjacent gem from one of the best labels in SF. Even better: 100% of proceeds from the release will go to Sphere (providing support to the young queer community across Ukraine) and the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (providing urgent humanitarian care for children in Gaza).
