[REBROADCAST FROM FEBRUARY 8TH, 2022] The Berlin-based record label Habibi Funk creates curated albums of re-released or newly discovered tracks from all around the Arab world, from the 1950s to the 1980s. The albums feature Lebanese folk, Moroccan disco, Sudanese jazz, and much more. Co-founder and curator Jannis Stürtz joins us to discuss his process for finding these tracks, and we'll listen to some music. This segment was selected by producer Jordan Lauf for today's Producer Picks.
