£18.99 – 1×12″ EP, Limited Edition Coloured Vinyl
On their debut EP, synthesizers, drum machines, modulated guitars and amplified buzuq collide as Taxi Kebab venture on a night ride through the Moroccan countryside, unveiling their self-described ‘psyché désoriental’ sound.
The electronic music of french duo Leïla Jiqqir and Romain Henry — a.k.a. Taxi Kebab — reveals influences of krautrock, psyche and techno, all the while haunted by the spectre of Leïla’s North African roots. reclaiming her Moroccan father’s Darija language, it’s through a liberating poetic register that her voice interacts with the acid arpeggios and rippling layers of Romain Henry’s experiments with machines.
