Notes

With the album 'Dahmani', the Algerian singer Dahmani, in collaboration with Existence, presents a masterpiece of musical creativity.

Traditional Algerian musicians with instruments such as loud, darbouka, ney, and Oriental violins are complemented by innovative and surprising sound creations, orchestral backgrounds,flamenco guitars, pulsating rhythms and Margot Reisinger's hypnotic vocals. The compositions are at once unusual yet timelessly traditional, combining the elements of Orient and Occident, creating a wonderful ambience for Dahmani’s outstanding voice.

Margot Reisinger, founder of Existence, sensitively adds to Dahmani's Oriental solo voice, lyrics, and compositions, an imaginative breadth and depth, that molds them into musical masterpieces.

Dahmani and Existence present a wide range of Oriental themes: the euphoric happiness of an Arabian wedding with dancing, singing, tea and couscous (Chante ma Fatima), a hot-blooded declaration of love for an enchanting femme fatale (La Zina Orientale), and the dramatic cry for peace within the painful tragedy of Palestine (Child of Palestine).

This album is a voice of hope for peace in times of increasing intolerance between East and West. Are not the dreams and longings of Arab and Western men and women equal, a deep wish for love, peace, freedom, happiness, and passion? This musical collaboration is evidence that cultural differences can be compatible and enriching instead of divisive.

After the album 'Qi•Chi•Ki', a meditative voyage to the Far East, and 'Like A Shot Through The Heart', a new path into the spirit of the Native American culture, Existence now embarks on this Oriental journey with Dahmani.

We invite you to experience 'Dahmani', and to be moved, captivated, and bewitched by this declaration of love for the Oriental culture and the whole of mankind.
