Tarab Machine
Biographie
TARAB MACHINE is an ensemble that fuses the hypnotic pulse of Middle Eastern music with the raw energy of modern rock and the freedom of jazz improvisation. Anchored by the voice and oud of Hussein, the group builds bold bridges between traditions, blending haunting maqam melodies, driving grooves, and shimmering textures.
Their genre - bending approach and powerful live performances have quickly earned them a place on the Belgian scene. Despite being a newly formed ensemble, they have already appeared at major events in 2025, including the Human’City Festival for BelRefugees (opening for Manu Chao), Plazey Festival in
Koekelberg, Pianofabriek concert nights, and Joyeuse Ouverture at Le Brass, among others.
Currently, the group is preparing for the release of their debut EP in Spring 2026, featuring the captivating voice of Tunisian singer Imen Al Amouri.
Together, they transform tarab — the Arabic word for musical ecstasy — into a living, electrified experience.
