All music rights belong to their rightful owners. Please support the musicians and buy their music. ------------ Raouf, aka Abstract Abder on Radio alHara - is a Philadelphia-based DJ and curator - founder of the label Uno Loop and Product Manager at Habibi Funk & Jakarta Records. Having spent time in Berlin, Brooklyn and Valencia, Raouf has travelled near and far - from the frenzied streets of Addis Ababa to humid back rooms of Havana, to the cramped malls of Kuala Lumpur - in search of that perfect sonic tonic groove to give you that pep in your step. Catch 90 minutes of Abstract Abder & his Rhythm Raouf’s on Radio alHara every second Sunday of the month, 2pm Bethlehem time. "These Angolan 45s (and a few Ethio 45s) bring the sunshine on the cloudiest of days and never fail to get me dancing and grooving along. I’ve been collecting Angolan records for nearly 10 years, and I’m always amazed not only by the musical calibre but also by the design aesthetics of the sleeves and artists. Enjoy!" -Abstract Abder ------------ MAJ NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!
