Description
Avid Habibi Funk listeners may be familiar with Libyan composer / producer Najib Alhoush, whos Ya Aen Daly – Bee Gees Stayin Alive cover – was included in our 2nd compilation.
Najibs group, The Free Music produced an astonishing 10 albums, all impressively strong and equally infused by soul, funk, disco and reggae. Groovy synths, thumping bass and drums and Najibs distinct flavor collide for something special. Self-financed, all their albums are fully dedicated to their unique musical blend, a distinctly infectious groove that unfortunately didnt make an impact outside of Libya due to the complex political situation at the time.
When we made the selection for this album, we could have chosen a completely different number of tracks and the album would be been equally strong. There is a reason why it says Part 1 in the title.
Vinyl and CD come with an extensive booklet featuring background on The Free Music and Najib Alhoush, including words from Najibs son, Yousef, as well as unseen photos and more.
As always this release is fully licensed, all proceeds are split 50:50 between us and Najib Alhoush’s family.Habibi Funk 021: Free Music (Part 1) by The Free Music
