Harap-Alb is the first full-length album by Articulat, following a trilogy of EPs (two released on vinyl) and previous appearances on Rotterdam’s Afrobotic Musicology label. This new project deepens Articulat’s commitment to narrative-rich electronic music – blending structure, rhythm, and texture to evoke both dancefloor tension and cinematic storytelling.
“This album is a personal exploration – an attempt to deconstruct and reimagine, through sound, a story that has been familiar to me since childhood. I first encountered Harap Alb as a crackling, timeworn radio play on vinyl, and its atmosphere has lingered with me ever since. This is my way of keeping that story alive, not by preserving it in amber but by passing it forward in a different form.
Perhaps, years from now, someone will discover this record the same way I found the original. And in doing so, they too will add their own craft and love to the tale.”
