Bourj Hammoud Groove is a reissue compilation celebrating the music of Ara Kekedjian, an Armenian-Lebanese musician who helped shape Beirut’s Estradayin pop sound. His songs fuse disco, synth-pop, and Armenian melodic traditions into a timeless groove. The compilation is named after Bourj Hammoud, a Beirut neighborhood that became the cultural hub for the Armenian community. This 12' vinyl edition comes with an extensive booklet featuring detailed liner notes by Darone Sassounian, chronicling Ara’s life and music, alongside rare and exclusive photographs from the archives. True to Habibi Funk’s archival ethos, the release combines rediscovery with cultural preservation.
