Description

Ara Kekedjian's Bourj Hammoud Groove is an LP and reissue compilation celebrating the work of this influential Armenian-Lebanese musician. The album focuses on Estradayin pop, a genre that combines traditional Armenian and Lebanese elements with Western pop influences. Kekedjian was one of the pioneers of this movement in Beirut. The album offers a rich, distinctive mix of danceable grooves, captivating melodies, and playful experiments with influences from both the Middle East and Europe.

The production captures the atmosphere of the multicultural Bourj Hammoud, the Beirut neighborhood with which Kekedjian is closely associated. Bourj Hammoud Groove was originally released in 1970, but this LP reissue reemphasizes the timelessness and cultural heritage of Kekedjian's music. Fans of vintage pop and world music will discover a remarkable piece of Levantine music history in this compilation.
