Various Artists - Habibi Funk: A Selection From Libyan Tapes - LP

2LP Compilation, Number of Discs: 2

A Selection From Libyan Tapes is a personal journey into the sounds the Habibi Funk crew fell in love with while digging through cassettes and stories across Libya. Rather than spotlighting the country's most famous exports, it brings forward overlooked gems and local classics of the cassette era — a vibrant collision of reggae, synthy disco, gritty pop, house and funk reflecting Libya's unique sonic landscape from the 1980s to the early 2000s. Recorded in makeshift home studios and exchanged by hand, these tracks capture North African rhythms meeting Arab melodies and deep African roots.
