Sami Galbi – Ylh Bye Bye
Out of stock
$27.00
“With Ylh Bye Bye, Swiss-Moroccan producer Sami Galbi delivers a raw and electrifying debut album after the success of his first single “Dakchi Hani / Rruina.” Merging North African folk, chaâbi, and trap with forward-thinking electronic club music, his punk energy and DIY ethos stem from years immersed in Lausanne’s underground squat scene, shaping a sound that’s both deeply personal and politically charged. Driven by infectious North African melodic loops, heavy basslines, and percussive textures — blending bendir drums, karkabas, and analog synths — Ylh Bye Bye pulses with urgency. From high-energy dancefloor anthems to dreamy acid pop ballads, the album explores themes of migration, identity, and belonging. Galbi’s Arabic vocals oscillate between auto-tuned harmonies and spoken word, capturing the tensions of diaspora life. Recorded between Switzerland and Morocco, the album’s title — meaning “Let’s go” or “See you” in regional slang — reflects the artist’s nomadic journey, from a DIY studio in a van to a transformative creative residency in Casablanca. It’s a work of constant movement, embodying both departure and return.”
