The Under Frustration project takes stock of the contemporary Arab electronic scene, and highlights its astonishing diversity, by deconstructing Western clichés that are still fantasizing about a culturally homogenous Arab world. In a context of post-revolutionary disillusion, this ambitious trilogy sets itself as a manifesto of a new, futuristic, underground wave that aims to uplift the Arab voice, once again. With this new release, Arabstazy allows the listener to walk among Shiite, Shaabi or Stambali lands -- revealing new mystical sounds, reserved for trance ceremonies and ancestral rituals; all vivid in the eyes of the collective members, musicians, producers, videographers, and photographers, nowadays, scattered between the United States, Tunisia, Germany, France, Sweden, Iraq, Lebanon, and Poland. Vol. 2 includes unreleased tracks of DJ Haram, Praed, Hello Psychaleppo, OkyDoky, and many more. Also features Saint Abdullah, Khan El Rouh, Rafael Aragon & Stas, Nazal, Adam Jawad, Praed, and Miss Machine. Curated by Arabstazy, produced by Shouka, and published by InFiné.
