Kadef – Kadef

With his »KADEF« project, New Yorker Devin Brahja Waldman continues to refine the formula that made his »BRAHJA« album so outstanding: repetitive, groove-laden and deeply rooted spiritual jazz. Ziad Qoulaii sings from high up in a desert tower. At certain points, Sam Shalabi brings out his unmistakable, tremulous guitar playing. This is how you might imagine a fearful prophet who sees mirages instead of the Holy Land.
