Dubkeh EP by Saied Silbak, Max Wheeler

Max and Saied first met playing with the One World Orchestra. They immediately hit it off over their love of strong coffee and quickly made plans to make a record combining their trademark Oud and Electronics. Initial plans were to showcase Arabic sounds in a new way, but with world events conspiring the project took on a new light. The two tracks were recorded in Hackney and Brighton and bring together a wide range of influences from 3 Step to Traditional Palestinian Folks Songs. All proceeds to The Ghassan Abu Sitta children's fund.

Max is a producer and DJ who has released albums on Gilles’ Peterson’s Brownswood, Tru Thoughts and First Word Records. As half of Anushka he has performed from Saigon to Siberia
with over 10m streams online. He has worked with artists from members of Kraftwerk to Grime Legend Trim. He has built an online audience with his weekly analog hardware studio jams recorded onto reel to reel tape.
