Series
Truth is concrete

Their music is a fusion of Eastern and Western sounds, the lyrics are controversial, always attacking, sharply political, not exactly pc – and deal with Islamic issues in a Western World: The Boston-based Muslim punk band The Kominas and the British Fun-Da-Mental both rebel against the system, struggle with stereotypes, discrimination, racism – and often respond immediately on current political situations with titles like: “Suicide Bomb the Gap” and “Tahir Square Dance” (The Kominas) or albums like “All is war”, (Fun-Da-Mental), which earned singer Aki Nawaz the title “The suicide rapper” in British media. A night of talking about making political music, about ideas, goals, inspirations and of playing favourite songs. A night that ends in a first-time-together DJ-set.
