It's like taking a trip through a Tel Aviv record shop without leaving your couch.

A sun-drenched, psychedelic exploration of cultural identity through the lens of a sampler.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the percussion on Za'atar Smoke feels like it's being played on kitchenware in a crowded room.
The transition from the hazy Sunrise of Collage Pt. 1 into the driving rhythm of Popeye the Pimp.
The haunting, slowed-down vocal loop on Shalom Alechem that turns a greeting into a ghostly mantra.
