Djazia Satour‘s unique style of funk, folk, and pop-laced rhythms is imbued with elements from her Algerian heritage, with an inspiration that progressively shifts toward the Arabic traditional music that lulled her early years.
Hers is a global invention that links nostalgia and the present, mixing 1950s Chaabi with tribal rhythms of bendirs, contrasting modal melodies from a banjo or a mandole with deep bass and aggressive analogue synths.
She rose to prominence as the voice of electro-trip-hop group MIG before striking out on her own in 2010, taking a more acoustic direction on her debut EP, Klami, a sound she expanded upon in her following two full-length albums, turning her attention lyrically to themes of dispossession and exile on the 2018 release, “Aswât.”
