For something a little different this week, check out some of Youtube's Arabic musicians, both established and amateur. For example...
..."Awel Marrah" posted and performed by "OudProff", an untitled track performed by Rahim Al-Haj, a beautiful and untitled taqsim by Abdo Dagher and Modathir Abul Wafa, with fairly ridiculous art house video accompaniment, a Farid el-Atrache taqsim (whatever that is), by Peter Refela, a clip of Naseer Shamma making it look easy, a clip of Onur Darbuka doing the same, and a groovy video for "Leysh Natarak", by trip-hop maestra Natacha Atlas.
In big label (I should say "somewhat bigger label") news, Priestbird has released their LP In Your Time. Find it and buy it. We posted on Priestbird, with some links and such, here.
And as for my weekly American Idol bit? The news speaks for itself.
