El Khat | Junkyard blues funk from Yemen!
(DICE Link in Bio)

@elkhatmusic is a homemade junkyard blues band led by multi-instrumentalist Eyal El Wahab. Named for the plant known for inducing mind-bending euphoria, their unique and original compositions are inspired by the music of the golden age in Aden, Yemen.

Experimenting with DIY, self-made instruments as an expression of a minimalist life philosophy - while remaining loyal to traditional Yemeni percussive roots - the three-piece developed a unique Arabic-Yemeni style. Although their detachment from any nation or flag is a driving force behind the group, the heart of their music and heritage remains deeply rooted in Yemeni culture.

“Brilliant!” - Gilles Peterson BBC6

The constant divisions created by war and migration have given rise to a reassembled identity, one that resonates strongly throughout El Khat’s music. With a fourth album to be released in 2026, El Khat continues to forge a sound that bridges past and present - keeping Yemeni culture alive while reimagining its future.

“El Khat’s mission is to keep the unsung cultural heritage of their ancestors alive, but on their own terms, adding a healthy dollop of DIY attitude, psych-rock energy and noisy experimentalism” - Uncut

LIMITED EDITION VINYL Available at Check-Out !!

“If anybody wants to keep creating, they have to be about change”

Ever Miles Ahead, it’s impossible to define Miles by just one of his many ground breaking periods, but on this milestone evening we will ecstatically ‘Get up with it ‘and highlight his eclectic electric ‘Big Fun’ period from ’69-’72 which include recordings from his essential Bitches Brew, On The Corner and Jack Johnson sessions.

Come run the voodoo down on this very auspicious Centennial day, which brought forth the inimitable Miles Davis, to continuously Re-birth the Cool, whilst always defiantly crafting his revolutionary sorcerers brew.

“Do not fear mistakes, there are none.”

Big Fun, fresher than ever, was released 52 years ago on Columbia Records double vinyl on April 19th, 1974 (followed by an expanded 8 track version) with original artwork by #corkymccoy

“If anybody wants to keep creating, they have to be about change”

Ever Miles Ahead, it’s impossible to define Miles by just one of his many ground breaking periods, but on this milestone evening we will ecstatically ‘Get up with it ‘and highlight his eclectic electric ‘Big Fun’ period from ’69-’72 which include recordings from his essential Bitches Brew, On The Corner and Jack Johnson sessions.

Come run the voodoo down on this very auspicious Centennial day, which brought forth the inimitable Miles Davis, to continuously Re-birth the Cool, whilst always defiantly crafting his revolutionary sorcerers brew.

“Do not fear mistakes, there are none.”

Big Fun, fresher than ever, was released 52 years ago on Columbia Records double vinyl on April 19th, 1974 (followed by an expanded 8 track version) with original artwork by #corkymccoy
