Mólo Sâyat - 'Hadaeq' (Zephyrus Records)
Mólo Sâyat’s album ‘Hadaeq’ is out now on all streaming platforms. (CD edition already available, Vinyl edition will be available from the 17th of December.)
Mólo Sâyat is the meeting of souls of the lebanese singer Pôl Seif and some European instrumentalists. Their repertoire has established its base camp around the Mediterranean sea without renouncing their sporadic visits deep inland. Lead by an ear craving the beauty of contradictions, the band composes original songs in Arabic, Italian and Romani language. Voices and instruments rise up together to invoke a chimeric and colourful folklore and transport the listeners into a voluptuous inner-world. The multifaceted ensemble is made up of seven musicians. Since 2011, the group has drawn on the intertwined roots of East and West. Hadaeq', their first release with Zephyrus Records, brings a calm chimeric but colourful folklore palette with hints of jazz and balkan.
“How saxophone, clarinet, double bass and trumpet can simultaneously be blended so beautiful. Najean almost seems to tell a story throughout the song with his clarinet, which compliments Seif’s voice beautifully.” - Indiestyle
