ARIFA, previously known as Afro Anatolian Tales, is the sound laboratory of Turkish-Dutch percussionist Sjahin During, where ethnic rhythms, electronic layers, and improvisation come together in a new musical language. A bridge between Orient and Occident: a lively exchange of cultures along the ancient Silk Road, where tradition transforms into timeless innovation. The music moves between tradition and future. Sounds of the Silk Road merge with contemporary compositions, improvisation, and digital sound design. Afro-Anatolian percussion, tanbur, cello, and trumpet are woven with electronic textures into a hypnotic, cinematic experience.
