This gave rise to bands of many different kinds, all tempered to the quarter tone, ternary rhythms and other regional singularities.<\/p>\n<p>Legendary groups and artists such as Les Golden Hands, Ibrahim El Hassan, Abranis, Ziad Rahbani and Cedars in particular spring to mind. We also saw the emergence of the Neo-Traditional trend, which drew on age-old traditions to develop modern song-writing composition, such as Cheikh Imam, Marcel Khalif\u00e9 and Nass El Ghiwane.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Les abranis - Amliyi<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"Les Abranis - Amliyi\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P1Wbfe4Lh2M?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Marcel Khalif\u00e9 \u2013&nbsp;Rita<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"Marcel Khalife - Rita \/ \u0645\u0627\u0631\u0633\u064a\u0644 \u062e\u0644\u064a\u0641\u0629 - \u0631\u064a\u062a\u0627\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UEeU-tx0SBU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>While some purists called it blasphemy \u2013 blaming these aesthetics for killing or impoverishing the soul of \u201cArabic\u201d music and its authenticity \u2013 the artists who embodied these movements resisted the bigotry of their predecessors and today, contemporary music largely dominates the market in most countries, especially with regard to variety and popular music, the primary focus for the cultural consumption of the Arab streets.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the 80-90\u2019s: electric popular varieties, the early days of Arab jazz and experiences of the diaspora<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the 1980s, musical production experienced a significant aesthetic turning point with the predominance of synthesisers and other digital organs with a new pop, kitsch and globalised sound, allowing artists from the Arab world to replace string and percussion orchestras with electronic sounds played by a single musician. This was the explosion of the current version of rai, dabkeh, chaabi and other popular traditional genres that underwent a sound revival and audience renewal. It was also the explosion of music videos \u2013 just like everywhere else \u2013 which replaced scopitones and musicals. The leading figures in this variety were Khaled, Najat Aatabou, Georges Wassouf, Ragheb Alama and Assala Nasri, to name but a&nbsp;few.<\/p>\n<p>We also witnessed the birth of the first jazz experiments, often with musicians living in Europe, such as Rabih Abou-Khalil and Anouar Brahem. This was a sophisticated music that fed off rich improvisational jazz to bring out the diversity of Arabic music, both in terms of rhythms and scales.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ragheb Alama&nbsp;\u2013 Moghram Ya&nbsp;lail<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"Ragheb Alama - Moghram Ya Lail\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OE_BQt3WcAc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Khaled \u2013&nbsp;Didi<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"Khaled - Didi (Official Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tTcnIYYeZI8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Anouar Brahem \u2013 The Astounding Eyes Of&nbsp;Rita<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"Anouar Brahem &quot;The Astounding Eyes Of Rita&quot; - Live in Bucarest - 2012\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zU5WU_d7fsM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At a local level, as well as in the diaspora \u2013 more discreetly but with more unbridled creativity and unabashed political commitment \u2013 we witnessed the birth of alternative and urban Arabic music, heir to the 1970s scene.

We witnessed the emergence of genuine stars from this scene, such as the rock bands Hoba Hoba Spirit and Mashrou\u2019leila, real regional phenomena with a wide audience, and rappers like Karkadan, Bigg and Shadia Mansour. Electro did not miss out, with trendsetters like Duoud, Hello Psychaleppo, Maurice Louca and Deena Abdelwahed.
