Aichoucha

Khalil Epi is one of the greatest innovators in the electronic music scene of the Arab world. In his powerful audiovisual live experience Aïchoucha, you walk through the musical memory of Tunisia. As you are immersed in the musical soul of the country, a new perspective emerges on the voices, gestures and rituals that have shaped this rich sonic heritage.

On large screens, you see film footage from the heart of various Tunisian regions and ceremonies, while Khalil reinterprets the music live. On stage, a powerful dialogue unfolds between traditional music (women’s vocal repertoires, rituals and folk songs) and modern electroacoustic textures. It is a dialogue that is sensory and grand, yet at the same time deeply intimate.

Aïchoucha raises fundamental questions about the transmission of traditions, the role of technology in preserving regional musical culture, spirituality, and the transformation of heritage in today’s world.
