Safar's music consists of a very personal take on American and British psychedelic folk, infused with modern pop and rock references, as well as subtle references to the Lebanese golden age of '60s surf. The band has a widespread following in Lebanon, gathered over the years thanks to a number of intimate performances marked by singer Jallad's emotional vocal delivery and Abdelnour's intricate guitar work. In Transit is a compilation of their first three EPs: 23 Kilograms (2015), Carry-On (2016), and Gate 03 (2016).

The Little-Known Ending Fading Away The Bunny Tylers is a duo from Lebanon whose core consists of two prominent musicians from the Beirut scene: singer-songwriter and guitarist Charbel Haber and multi instrumentalist and producer Fadi Tabbal. Their first two releases, Glitches & Drones 2013-2016 (RPTD 016CD, 2017) and Chance Meetings (RPTD 020CD/LP, 2018), were released by Lebanese indie label Ruptured. The music of French free-rock collective Oiseaux -Tempe is bred from places in turmoil. Embracing the freedom of improvisation, theirs is a secular music that crosses boundaries and cultures, embodying an intersection where post-rock, jazz, Arabic music, punk, and experimental electronic music find common ground and refuge.

Formed in 2015, the project sees him working alongside multi-instrumentalist and producer Fadi Tabbal and other musicians from the Beirut music scene. Prior to the creation of Interbellum, Mattar released folk albums under the moniker Charlie Rayne. 2014's Wider Waters saw him move to Berlin and embark on a 40-date tour in Europe, before returning to Beirut to launch Interbellum. Both projects were showcased at Wickerpark Festival, the leading indie festival in the Middle East. Interbellum's debut Now Try Coughing featured lo-fi guitar-driven songs recorded live to cassette. It was recorded and self-released in 2016. Dead Pets, Old Griefs is the band's second full-length album, and expands the band's palette considerably, adding synthesizers, samples, and electronics to the mix. The album features ten songs that revolve around themes of memory, time, childhood, and loss. Apocalyptic imagery-real, imagined, and figurative-permeates the album, and the instrumentation follows suit, warping, distorting and folding in on itself. The record plays like a broken music box, its kaleidoscopic melodic songs disjointed and smeared by noise, dissonance, and processed sounds. Recorded in Tabbal's Tunefork Studios over a period of several months, Dead Pets, Old Griefs features contributions from Marwan Tohme, Julia Sabra, and Pascal Semerdjian from dream-pop quartet Postcards, and Camille Cabbabé from post-rock ensemble K?Z?. The album is released by Lebanese indie label Ruptured in a limited edition of 300. https://www.forcedexposure.com/Product.aspx?CatalogNo=RPTD.024CD --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RPTD 025 HIFIKLUB AND MIKE COOPER : ARAN STORIES CD 05.2019 (Note : CD , 400 copies) RPTD 025 HIFIKLUB AND MIKE COOPER : ARAN STORIES DL 05.2019 1.
