The Sound of Jordanian Alternative

"The Sound of Jordanian Alternative" brings together a broad cross-section of Jordan’s indie and alternative music scene—pulling in everything from experimental rock and electro-pop to jazz-fused hip-hop and ambient instrumentals. It features cornerstone acts like Akher Zapheer, El Morabba3, and Jadal, whose layered sounds and introspective lyrics helped define the region’s alt identity, alongside newer voices such as Idreesi, Luay Hijazeen, and Quantum Foam.

The playlist leans into a mix of moods—at times raw and melancholic with tracks like Yazan Rousan’s “Telfizion” or Khair Music’s “الحب البكر,” at others playful and groove-heavy like Autostrad’s “Alber” or Amjad Shahrour and El Far3i’s “Massari.” With contributions in both Arabic and English, and a blend of organic instrumentation and electronic production, the collection offers a snapshot of a vibrant, evolving scene that blurs genre lines and pulls local stories into global sounds.
