Amira Saqati's third album follows the path explored by numerous releases on the Barbarity label, blending traditional Moroccan melodies, singing, and instrumentation with modern pulsing electronic beats and sonic overlays aplenty. Though singer and multi-instrumentalist Youssef el Mejjad and programmer/samplers/arranger/producer/mixer Pat Jabbar are the main forces behind the act, they get lots of help from about a dozen other players, singers, and rappers. It's a dizzying swirl, both taken as a whole and within many of the individual tracks. Sad North African winding melodies may often be at the forefront (and are never far away from the core), but there are so many separate components employed and sampled that it would take several paragraphs to list them all. They include bee-buzzing traditional string instruments, haunting female backup vocals, occasional singing in French, electronic dance-rap, hard rock guitar, reggae-influenced vocals, dub-influenced effects, flutes, oud, and uneasily trance-like waves of electronic sound. If this kind of stuff isn't a main dish of yours, it might be just too rich a helping all at once, particularly on a disc that goes on for a good 68 minutes. If you do like it, it's certainly diverse and unpredictable in its shift of moods, and more effective as a segueing soundscape than for the quality of its individual cuts. ~ Richie Unterberger
After over eleven years of collaborations with diverse Barraka artists (such as Aisha Kandisha`s Jarring Effects, Ahlam, Azzddine...) and after over 10'000 sold copies of their previous albums „Agdal Reptiles On Majoun' 1995 and „Al Bharr' 1998, Youssef El Mejjad and Pat Jabbar finally release their third album „Destination Halal' under the name of Amira Saqati (Moroccan dialect for „a piece of something'). Far from any „sex & drugs & rock'n'roll' - party lifestyle attitude, the recordings were made in Marrakech during the spiritual and holy period of Ramadan 2004, under as „Halal' as possible conditions. Even if music in general became a secondary thing in their lifes, it still remains an important and strong way of expression, to share ideas and convictions. The main message of this album, tries to bring in question the values of our actual way of life. Do we need all these permanent and transitory distractions to get satisfied ? May our passions give us the solution of being happy ? Does materialism and possession save our souls ? What is the definition of freedom ? Did we not get any signs or are we just afraid of facing the hidden truth ... ? The aim of Amira Saqati is not to convince or change anyone, but just to give some possible indications and suggestions... The music is a fusion of Moroccan Melhoun elements, Shabi, Raï, Gnawa and Oriental styles, melted with Dub, Lounge, Trip Hop and Electronica influences. „Marrakech X-Press' is a strong Pop track about ruthlessness and betrayal. Deep Bendir beats with a Lotare melody meet heavy Rock riffs and do remind us of Nass El Ghiwane (The Moroccan ...
