Taxi Kebab

At the crossroads of influences coming from all sides, Taxi Kebab is the collision between synthesizers, drum machines, modulated guitars and amplified buzuq. In a re-appropriation of her father’s language, it’s through a liberating poetic register that Leïla Jiqqir (buzuq, guitar, voice) interferes with the acid arpeggios and rippling layers led by Romain Henry’s experiments with machines. Mainly electronic, the music of the french-moroccan duo is sometimes close to krautrock, psyche, or techno influences, haunted by the specter of North African roots. Revealing some disordered identities fragments, their music is a night ride, through roads and landscapes into a rough, psyche sound, disoriented and « disoriental ». After their 1st single Lmchi w Rjou3 (May 2019) and 3 years of tour (FR&Europe), the duo released its 2nd single Ttabla (Nowadays Records) in September 2021. Their first EP Visions al 2ard will be released in spring 2022, preceded by two singles on Real World X.
