Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Anti-colonial jazz meets sound art in the mind of Shabaka Hutchings / Moor Mother collaborator Dirar Kalash – raising vital funds for cancer patients in Gaza. By bringing the Palestinian spirit to improvisational works across guitar, oud, sax, piano and field recordings, Dirar has become one of the greatest voices in the sonic liberation of a nation."
