꧁꧂ excited to present @_omarcheikh and @arkangelodelikato collaborative work for countless reasons because it is the first release by Lente Fantasma - and somehow the 37th by Yerevan Tapes after quite a few years of hiatus because of the flesh and magic that Omar and Arkangelo have put into shaping it because of the flow of sediments that runs freely through it. this seventeen-minute EP is an emotional thesaurus for a new language of wonder. 4 tracks wrapped up in magnetic tape that are all about disruptive tears, and unravelling, and deep warm niches. they have the same degree of expansion as the heart a second before going up in flames. : the latter glint of a red giant. ꧁꧂ artwork & design @arkangelodelikato and @_omarcheikh voice and texts by Angelika Ploumidou sounds by O.Cheikh recorded, mixed and mastered by Domiziano Maselli ltd edition c20 cassette tape and digital out now link in bio

Another surprise for our cassette headz. 𝐎𝐦𝐚𝐫 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐤𝐡 ‘𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓪𝓻𝓭𝓮𝓷’ (MDR105) Entering @_omarcheikh ’sworld feels like crossing a holy portal, the micro‑rhythms of a slow‑growth forest and the lush density of countless light prisms quietly echoing distant songs. ‘𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓪𝓻𝓭𝓮𝓷’ weaves a near-ritualistic, emotionally saturated atmosphere, shaped by organic folk elements, somber instrumentation, and lingering industrial textures. Every detail is finely etched yet the song architectures maintain a liquid form, projecting geometrical figures that shapeshift constantly, undulated arpeggios that catch sudden heat manifesting incantations and foregone rituals. Granular patterns reveal haunting melodies and a bizarre mesh of freak-folk, pastoral electronica and late 70s fourth world wave. Link in bio to pre-order tape and listen.

𝐎𝐦𝐚𝐫 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐤𝐡’s ‘𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓪𝓻𝓭𝓮𝓷’ has been slowly capturing minds and hearts, an incredibly layered an dense night record, haunting arpeggios that travel miles and miles. Here is a video excerpt from Omar’s secret gig last summer in V.A. garden with a couple of janky toy walkie talkie, ‘80 Siel organ, 200m of electric wire and a cassette player’.

Local Service joins forces with the experimental music ecosystem @box_of_tangerine for the first open-air daytime happening of the season, set in the unique space of Cascinet, a hidden green oasis in East Milan. At sunset, multidisciplinary artist @_omarcheikh , fresh from a new release on Maple Death Records, sets the vibe with a live performance rooted in low frequencies, noise, and abstract sonic environments. He is followed by Fera (@suonidisorganizzati )from the Undicesimacasa collective. Moving between Bologna and Rome, he energizes parties and concerts, weaving together sound practice with visual and graphic work. In his live sets, Fera brings along simple machines to shape disorganized sounds. Closing the event is @heavenphetamine , a Japanese duo who blend 1970s psychedelic rock with elements of post-punk and acid house, with subtle influences of traditional Japanese music woven throughout. Minimalist yet finely crafted drumming meets playful, dynamic keyboard melodies that grow increasingly driving and ecstatic over the course of the songs. It’s a beautiful feeling that makes you want to dance. A vinyl, cd, tape, zine, clothes market area will be waiting for you in the garden throughout the day. from 17 to 23, @cascinet_agrohub Via Cavriana 38, Milan Donation (10 eu suggested ) at the door. The event will be in support of “Fare Rete, Fare Spazio”, the winning project of the City of Milan’s Civic Crowdfunding initiative: an all-or-nothing campaign to renovate the barn at Cascina Sant’Ambrogio and launch new activities in partnership with Cascinet, Trottola Urbana and many other local organisations. If we reach our target, the space will be brought back to life for everyone. Every contribution can make a difference. See you in the daylight. artwork: @steburtmana & @restlesshours

Seven free animals will gather. Each one will bring a personal desire for sound, for a world and for interior politics. One after the other, they will present the most recent of their works, to the audience, to their friends and to themselves. Then they will play music all together as one body. Like a swarm of bees, buzzing and making honey. Sabato 13 dicembre, di sera a Dar Meso, Bab Souika, sette mammiferi liberi si incontreranno. Ognuno ognuna di loro, porterà il suo desiderio di un suono, di un mondo e di politica interiore. Uno dopo l'altro presenteranno l'ultimo dei loro lavori, alle persone, ai loro cari e a loro stessi. Poi suoneranno assieme assieme come un'unicio corpo. Come uno sciame di api, che producono rumore e miele.

Food for Thought - Half Half, a dinner by Omar Cheikh. On December 10th, Mouhit invites cook and artist Omar Cheikh (@_omarcheikh ) , who works with sound and drawing, for a special edition of Food for Thought, our monthly fundraiser dinner supporting our art space. For Half Half, Omar focuses on the figures of the Bâtard, the Mule and the Half blooded, representing mixed and in-between identities. He cooks from this space of overlap, where things do not fully belong to one side or the other. The menu comes from personal food memories, mixed influences from Tunisia and Italy and the small contradictions that shape the way he cooks. The dinner will include a listening session with sound prepared by Omar. Join us for an evening of food and sound built around the idea of being in between and embracing it. Spots are limited so book your spot via the link in bio ! Price: 100dt/person All funds collected will go toward supporting Mouhit Space and its ongoing artistic activities. Date: Wednesday, December 10th Time: 7pm (dinner will be served promptly at 7:30) Location: Mouhit Space 15 rue chaambi, menzah 1 🍷 you can bring your own alcohol See you there ! Visual by Omar Cheikh _____ This event is implemented with the support of Arab Fund for Arts and Culture @afac.fund through a grant from the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation - SDC.

ìفي الماء/nell’acqua is 55 minute mix of music that bridges different glimpse of the Mediterranean and abroad, It features wobbling loops, distorted broken beats, bass driven songs, personal edits, audio excerpts, and dusty melodies. Omar Cheikh, 1996, works with drawing and sounds. He has collaborated with several independent and self-productions projects like kuš!, Det Grymma Svärdet, Samandal, Futuro Arcaico, Enterpress, Tocca il futuro and more. He's part of Titivil, a gallery, bookshop and studio space based in Bologna. ‘The cover is an old picture of me and my mum standing under the sun of Les Grottes de Bizerte (TN). In these times nostalgia is a privilege and my thoughts are with those who cannot have it. Free Palestine.’
