  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    DJ Markarian’s tracks, both made in collaboration with The Spy From Cairo (a.k.a. Zeb), are “Repique Masala” and “Con Toda Palabra.” The first begins with a riot of timbales and then brings in the distinctive sound of the sitar — a nod, perhaps, to the fact that both Markarian and Zeb (who is Italian by birth, based in NYC) are percussionists, and that Zeb plays the oud among other instruments. On “Con Toda Palabra,” by the late Lhasa de Sela in collaboration with Yves Desrosiers, we hear the luxuriant voice of Carmen Estevez Calero (Brooklyn Gypsies) reinterpreting a traditional-sounding song over a modernized and hypnotic beat.

You’re on a tough desert trek and you come upon an oasis — with water, lush green, and a diverse group of fellow wanderers eager to welcome you in. It’s a dance party. And the LA- based DJ Markarian, proprietor of Take 5 Music, is there to spin records ideal for this life- affirming setting. Welcome to Oasis Lounge Vol. II, a joyous mix of music by artists hailing from Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, Cape Verde, Armenia, Italy and other locales.

released September 8, 2023

As the title implies, this effort follows up DJ Markarian’s earlier Oasis Lounge Vol. I, which included tracks by Thievery Corporation, Julius Papp, DJ Phantom and more. Vol. II picks up the thread with pulsing downtempo sounds and evocative vocals on tracks from Jad Halal (“The Sun and the Wind”), Armen Miran & Hraach (“Lullaby”), Dumbekchi featuring Muhammed Junaid (“Saa-ahh Witgheeb ElShamis”) and Ali KH featuring Youssef Baklouti (“Ana Fi Sokraïn”).
