Originally commissioned by Stegi Radio and produced by Onassis Stegi.

In Rami’s own words: “In this broadcast entitled INSIJAM, meaning ‘harmony’ in Arabic, the essence of chances and encounters takes center stage. Combining musique concrète with traditional Arabic sounds, the performance shifts between experimental, avant-garde, spoken word, field recordings, and improvised jazz. INSIJAM represents my perspective on the beauty of diverse musical encounters.”
