Founded between garages and warehouses, the trance-folk-rock band El Khat updates the sound of the 60s on self-built instruments.
The project around singer Eyal el Wahab is now based in Berlin and uses its constantly expanding vision to set an example against complacency, conflict and division.
Drums, wind instruments, an old organ, hypnotic Yemeni melodies and the self-made percussion and string instruments combine in an intoxicating world of sound: wild and raw, sometimes lush and overloaded but always uncompromising and adventurous.
"Mute", the band's latest album, is – according to Wahab – an album that explores the presence and absence of distance and language, a series of observations about people and places, their emergence, existence and decay.
