"Those drawn to world music often seek the exotic and the alien, but Jannis Stürtz, the German crate-digger behind the label, seems to explore the vinyl troves of the Arab world in search of the familiar. Specifically, he's after artists who've tried to faithfully recreate orthodox western pop forms, but ended up putting them through a shaky fairground mirror. This 16-track compilation features some entertaining moments from the 1960s, 70s and 80s. A Moroccan take on Beethoven's Für Elise sounds like Ennio Morricone's lost blaxploitation movie theme ... The flirtations with funk and garage rock at the start are the most fun, but even some of later R&B pastiches from Tunisia and Egypt are pleasingly odd"

"A new compilation from Habibi Funk highlights the old and interweaving sounds of Algerian coladera, Lebanese AOR, Egyptian disco, Moroccan funk and more ... It's fitting that the set kicks off with "Bsslama Hbibti," a hard-sweating stomp from Fadoul, a Moroccan whose closest parallel might be to James Brown ... The most arresting track is "Ayonha," featuring buoyant drum machines, jangly guitars and tickly synths, all played by Libyan-born Hamid El Shaeri ... Sweet vocal harmonies drift across Tunisian band Dalton, who embrace the likes of Tim Maia and the Doobie Brothers on the laidback "Soul Brother""
