With “Damaa” — “a tear” in Arabic — Eljoee begins a new venture dedicated to producing young Algerian talents from the TV show “Alhan wa Chabab”, in collaboration with its producer Ameur Bahloul. The first track in this series spotlights the voice of Imad Gnawa.
A tribute to an emblematic song of Algeria’s Saharan heritage and to its creators, “Damaa” blends the sounds of diwane and the Sahara with reggae influences. A bright, rhythmic production that turns the sadness of the lyrics into a collective lift, without losing the emotional depth of the original work.
