Stamp the Wax - A Brief History of South Yemeni Music (Mixed By El Khat) (2022)
Listen on MIXCLOUD
Each style has its own uniqueness but in the Yemeni one the feel of the beat is very different than in other Arabic styles. It has an emphasised layback, the drums are sometimes played on metal plates or other copper objects and the Oud almost escorts the drum section. The focus is around rhythm and much less about solos or virtuosic vocals.

All the weebs love me for my swag and by swag I mean my dope new wax seal of a cat enjoying ramen.
This is by far the most absurd hobby I've ever had but being fair, it's also one of the cheapest. How much joy can be procured for $7? More than you'd think!
[ID: A photo of my hand holding a round stamped wax seal; it is black with a gold center where the stamp impression is placed. The impression is of a cartoon cat with a massive bowl of ramen, using chopsticks to scoop noodles into their mouth.]
