Omar Souleyman – “Darb El Hawa (Cole Alexander Remix)”

Syrian singer Omar Souleyman is known for his ongoing festival presence and string of collabs with producers, notably his Four Tet-produced album Wenu Wenu. He returned earlier this summer with the LP Bahdeni Nami and now his album cut “Darb El Hawa” has been remixed by Black Lips guitarist Cole Alexander.

Shrieky effects brings one of the most eerie ambiances to back Souleyman’s voice, making you feel like a dark presence is nearing. Listen below.
