Room 1 [Arab Electronica]
On Friday, February 6, Shkoon open a portal between two far-off musical worlds, proving that shared spirit can bridge any cultural distance.
Shkoon formed in 2015, after a chance meeting in Hamburg between Ameen (Syria) and Thorben (Germany). Their spontaneous exchange sparked a project that now stands as one of the most recognisable forces in Arab electronica — merging Arabic folklore and original lyrics with Western electronic production.
Their new project TRACES is not an elegy. It’s a quiet uprising, a deeply emotional reflection on what remains when everything else fades: the footsteps of those before us, the stillness after the storm, the echoes of transformation.

Inspired by the ideals of the Syrian revolution and the universal longing for freedom, belonging, and change, Shkoon’s music walks a delicate line between nostalgia and momentum. Each track is both fragment and invitation, to feel what connects us, even when words fall short.
With their debut album Rima (2019), Shkoon captivated audiences across Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. Despite the challenges of Ameen’s refugee journey, their music became a bridge; connecting hearts, stories, and cultures. Their concept album Masrahiya blurred the lines between fiction and reality, while Greater Than One built shared spaces of emotion and connection.
Now, with TRACES, Shkoon opens a new chapter - one shaped by quiet resistance and the enduring power of memory.

They quote "It was always part of our vision to build bridges between traditional Middle Eastern music and modern electronica. The opportunity to fuse club culture with more conventional sounds is incredibly exciting for us".
