Dabke

Dabke is a popular Levantine folk music genre and dance, often associated with joyous celebrations and communal gatherings across Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, and Iraq. Characterized by pulsating rhythms, vibrant percussion (typically the derbakke or tabla), and a melodic line led by traditional instruments such as the mijwiz, oud, or bouzouk, dabke stirs listeners with its infectious energy and spirited melodies. Artists like Nassif Zeytoun and Hussein Al Deek, among others, bring contemporary flair to the genre, blending electronic elements and modern production techniques with folkloric roots, resulting in music that resonates with both traditional audiences and newer generations. The genre encapsulates both a connection to cultural identity and an evolving soundscape that encapsulates the dynamic nature of the Middle Eastern music scene.
