Franco-Tunisian DJ and producer, Malaise Vagal injects the essence of her North African heritage into bass music that is both uncompromising and full of humor, affirming in the process her support for Palestine.
Malaise Vagal draws its inspiration from the absurdity of everyday life to create tragicomic electronic sounds. Both inspired by global bass and Arab music, she echoes the human condition in a rave and ironic approach, and with the desire to “abolish borders”, as she explicitly emphasizes in her latest EP Thank God We Have Metavers. While keeping her music in tune with the times, she knows the recipe for not taking herself seriously, with pieces like “RATP” or “Devise Nationale”, but also knows how to use the political power of music, as in this set, which calls for mobilization.
“The set begins by going beyond the borders of the African continent, with “Gaza Calling”, a track from Checkpoint 303, an activist musical project launched by the Tunisian SC Mocha and the Palestinian SC Yosh. The track samples a Gaza citizen’s appeal to the United Nations and is described by the collective as an appeal to the international community that only results in the response of machines. What follows is an hour-long narration built around productions by North African or European artists from the North African diasporas with very broad musical influences, incorporating jungle, bass music, ambient or more traditional elements. »
