Acid Arab is a musical collective deeply rooted in the electric confluence of electronic music and the vibrant sonic textures of the Middle East and North Africa. Conceived in Paris by Guido Minisky and Hervé Carvalho, Acid Arab's journey began in 2012 with a simple ethos: to create a space where Middle Eastern music and electronic beats could meet and inspire. The duo quickly expanded into a larger collective, incorporating musicians, DJs, and vocalists from various cultures, each adding their distinct flavors to the evolving Acid Arab sound.

Through their discography, including tracks like "O Gato (feat. Diogo Strausz) [Acid Arab Minawi Mizmar Remix]" and "Habaytak (R3HAB Remix)", the group has showcased an ability to seamlessly blend traditional Middle Eastern instruments and melodies with contemporary electronic music. Their work isn't just a fusion but a dialogue between cultures, where percussive electronic rhythms meet the soul-stirring maqams of Arab classical music. Albums like "Musique de France" and a slew of remixes, exemplified by their "Remixed" collection, have not only contributed to their reputation as pioneers of a genre-defying sound but also as cultural ambassadors bridging geographies and genres. Their live performances are energetic celebrations of this cultural crossover, ensuring Acid Arab's place as a dynamic and innovative force on the global music scene.
