Nick from Erratic Batting says:
“With Persian roots, music from the Middle East hits me differently - ancestrally. And when it’s played this perfectly, I'm sure it'll hit you too. Vintage Middle Eastern synths and surf-psych guitars circle and converse, while a bouncing rhythm section carries everything on a disco-funk pulse.”

Sababa 5 are a Paris-based band known for their hypnotic blend of Middle Eastern psychedelia, Mediterranean funk, and analog groove. Their sound fuses swirling organs, surf guitars, and irresistible rhythms into a style both nostalgic and forward-looking—rooted in vintage tones but always evolving.
After gaining global attention with the single "Tokyo Midnight / Nasnusa", featuring Japanese singer Yurika, the band continued to explore new directions through collaborations and live performances across Europe. Their self-titled debut album and the follow-up, Aspan, deepened their signature sound: a rich, instrumental fusion of funk, disco, and Eastern melodies.
In 2025, they unveiled Nadir, their fourth and most ambitious album to date. Marking a new creative high, Nadir dives deeper into emotion, texture, and groove, the sound of a band unafraid to move forward. This journey continues into early 2026 with the release of their fifth album, Ca Va Ca Va, embracing a celebratory 'Hafla' sound (Middle Eastern party), which will be fully supported by an extensive European tour.
