Dissidenten – Shake the Sheikh (1989) //الديسيدنتن – شك الشيخ
Always wondered how 80’s Michael Jackson would sound like if it was in Arabic! This song of the genious Dissidenten comes pretty close! Never thought I’d ever hear anything like this! This crossover sound of Michael Jackson’s ‘Leave me Alone’ sound/ Seinfeld slapbass and Maghreb chants is a masterpiece. This song was put together in Morocco (1989) by the German band and the Royal National Orchestra of Morocco and singer Cherif Lamrani. This collective effort of the best of both worlds can truly be called a ‘splash of civilizations’.
