04:42Let's go.
04:43Let's go.
05:13Let's go back to this important question.
05:15He doesn't say who the winner is.
05:17He explains to us some of the mysteries and secrets.
05:21Let's welcome Bessy Houssam.
05:23How are you, Houssam?
05:25I'm fine, thank God.
05:27You are the lead vocalist of the Mezen band.
05:32Exactly.
05:34What can you tell us about the members of the Mezen band?
05:39And how are you?
05:41At first, there were 10 of us.
05:44We were 11 members.
05:46After that, we formed a group of 7.
05:48There were a lot of members.
05:50We formed a group of 4.
05:52We had a bass player.
05:54We had a brass section.
05:56We had a pianist.
05:58And of course, we had a guitarist.
06:00We had two singers.
06:02We had Omar Tsahia in the keyboard.
06:06Youssef was the pianist.
06:09Then he became the artistic director.
06:12But Youssef is still in the band.
06:14He is still the artistic director.
06:16In order to focus on the artistic direction,
06:20we added a keyboard sound.
06:24And now he is in charge of the artistic direction.
06:28You are the lead vocalist.
06:31Were you in the band before?
06:33Yes, I was in the band before.
06:36I was working with a band outside of Morocco.
06:40After the pandemic, I moved to Morocco.
06:44And this project was born.
06:46It was a good start.
06:49Thank God.
06:51I was in the band before Youssef.
06:55I was with Bari.
06:57I was with Tariq Khansa.
07:00I was with Ganga Vibe.
07:02I can't remember all of them.
07:05I can't remember all of them.
07:07It was a good time.
07:09The band's description is Afro-Latino.
07:15What do you think about this description?
07:19You can be Afro-Latino or even Moroccan-Latino.
07:26The concept is to be Moroccan music.
07:32And mix it with Latin music.
07:36We focused on Latin music.
07:39We don't focus on Latin music in Morocco.
07:43We don't sing a lot.
07:46We tried to focus on Latin music.
07:50My style is Flamenco.
07:53I sing in Flamenco.
07:56Then I moved to Latin music.
07:59And the project was born.
08:02This is an important step for the band.
08:07Hossein and Anas,
08:10most of the time in Morocco,
08:13when we wanted Latin music,
08:15we asked for a group from Latin America,
08:19Cuba, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela.
08:23But we wanted something different.
08:26We wanted to focus on this style of music.
08:30But now we have a group from Morocco,
08:33with Latin music,
08:35a world of music.
08:37Exactly.
08:39We have a lot in common with Moroccan music.
08:45Our roots are in Andalusian music,
08:49and in Spanish music.
08:53In their history.
08:56Our roots are in Latin music.
08:59The Latins who come to Morocco
09:02are shocked by the rhythm,
09:05the rhythm and everything.
09:08It's not the same in the whole of Morocco.
09:12You have a lot of international fans.
09:16Of course.
09:18Foreign and international artists
09:21are shocked by our rhythm.
09:24Exactly.
09:26We had a tour in Canada this summer.
09:29We have a tour in Europe this summer.
09:33We have a lot of tours and concerts.
09:38As you said,
09:40people think that Moroccan music
09:43is an Arabic style.
09:45It's not.
09:47But when they see our music,
09:50the rhythm and the basics,
09:53they say,
09:55we didn't expect that Moroccan music
09:58is of this level.
10:00We salute the members of the group.
10:03Of course.
10:05Each one of them has his own name.
10:08We salute them all.
10:10Let's zoom in on the group.
10:13Houssam will give us his qualities
10:16and then we'll ask him the same thing.
10:19I know what you're going to say.
10:22That's it.
10:24That's it.
10:26As for his qualities,
10:28he's organized,
10:30he's reasonable,
10:32he's calm.
10:34He's not like other people.
10:37You never find a problem with him.
10:40He's not...
10:43As they say,
10:45there's no problem.
10:47He's easy to deal with.
10:49Suddenly?
10:51He's not like other people.
10:53He's not like other people.
10:55He's not like other people.
10:57He's responsible.
10:59He's not like other people.
11:01The problem is that
11:03sometimes he's a bit harsh.
11:05Sometimes he's a bit harsh.
11:07I try to...
11:09He's not like other people.
11:11He's not like other people.
11:13He's responsible.
11:15Of course.
11:19Houssam,
11:21God bless him,
11:23he's versatile.
11:25He has a warm,
11:27manoeuvrable voice.
11:29He has a wide musical culture.
11:33He has a wide musical culture.
11:35He has a wide musical culture.
11:37He has a wide musical culture.
11:39He's more than you'd expect.
11:41He's more than you'd expect.
11:43He's warm.
11:45He has a wide musical background.
11:47He has a wide musical background.
11:49He's played with many different bands
11:51He's played with many different bands
11:53and musicians from all over the world.
11:55and musicians from all over the world.
11:57God bless him.
11:59We can't say enough.
12:01We can't say enough.
12:03He sings a lot.
12:05That's right, that's right.
12:09He sings a lot.
12:11He can't sing at all.
12:13When he travels, he sings?
12:15When he travels, he sings.
12:17It's not the radio, it's Hussam.
12:19Hussam is like this.
12:21He's like this.
12:23He always has a pair of headphones
12:25and he listens to it in his ear.
12:27He listens to this and he sings with it.
12:29He doesn't let you listen to it.
12:31He's like this.
12:33It's not a defect.
12:35I'm telling you, I'm a defect.
12:37Sometimes I get a little tired.
12:39I get a little tired.
12:41I get a little tired.
12:43I know that he sings a lot.
12:45He trains a lot.
12:47He practices a lot.
12:49But if he sings a lot,
12:51for example, for hours a day,
12:53it hurts his voice.
12:55That's right.
12:57In my normal life, I used to work
12:59and I sang almost every day.
13:01Do you understand?
13:03I used to sing every day
13:05and when it was time to sing,
13:07I sang for a long time.
13:09With time, I noticed that
13:11when he sings a lot,
13:13his voice hurts.
13:15When he sings in the morning,
13:17his voice hurts a lot.
13:19But I have an advantage,
13:21thank God,
13:23that my voice changes.
13:25In the evening,
13:27my voice changes.
13:29I can make it like a drum.
13:31I can make my voice like a drum.
13:33It's a habit.
13:35I can help him do that.
13:37Sometimes, he needs something important
13:39or a concert.
13:41Let's get back to your voice,
13:43Husam.
13:45I don't think the singer
13:47likes to learn.
13:49You have a long experience.
13:51But maybe you hear some Latin rhythms,
13:53some music,
13:55or a band you like,
13:57How do you get inspired by them without copying them, without copying them?
14:03You have your own identity, your own timbre, but at the same time you like that style.
14:08How do you do that?
14:09Honestly, I tell you, music in general is what I do.
14:13If you look, there are a lot of people who sample other people's music,
14:17and those who come to me, they sample from them, and so on.
14:20The normal thing is that you take one idea,
14:24and you develop it.
14:26You don't do it as a copy and paste.
14:28The copy and paste is the bad thing.
14:30But to take an idea, develop it, and use it in your own way,
14:35according to the inspiration you get from it,
14:39I don't think there is a problem with this issue.
14:43As for what you said, how do I put it?
14:49You get inspired by the sound you get from it.
14:54Yes, so what do you do?
14:56For example, a song, Kim Mackint,
14:58we take the song and we memorize the original of the studio.
15:01We memorize it and sing it, for example.
15:03We see a lot of versions.
15:05We see a lot of versions of a lot of people singing the same song.
15:09Everyone does something different.
15:11Do you understand?
15:12And when you take that and put it all together,
15:14you find that you can make your own version.
15:16Do you understand?
15:17So we work a lot on that.
15:19I have a lot of songs that I know.
15:22So there are always several versions.
15:24Anas, as for Ella,
15:26the one you talked about in the episode with Houssem,
15:29what has changed in her?
15:31What is new in her?
15:32Has she come from the discipline?
15:34What kind of strings does she have?
15:35No, no, no.
15:36The discipline is French.
15:38Everything is in French.
15:39She is like Jimmy Page.
15:41No, but she has 12 strings in one voice.
15:44Exactly.
15:45Exactly, I found the guitarist who plays with her, Jimmy Page,
15:49Justin Adams, a friend of his.
15:52We talked about it and he is a fan of Louisa.
15:54Exactly.
15:55He is a great player.
15:57He was going to play with her at the Taker Coast festival.
16:02He was going to play with her.
16:03So he has 16 strings,
16:05Justin Adams.
16:06Justin Adams,
16:0716 strings,
16:08he has a lot of guitar.
16:10Justin Adams is a world-class artist.
16:12I don't have a quarter of a tone on the guitar.
16:14I didn't know how to play with Ruisha.
16:16What advice did you give him?
16:18I told him not to play the note with the time card.
16:20Don't play it.
16:22Don't measure the chords.
16:24He plays in Bayati or Saba,
16:26so if it's the second,
16:28it doesn't matter.
16:30You have to plan a bit technically
16:32so that you don't go a bit technical.
16:34This note, this scale,
16:36is the one with the time card.
16:38Don't measure it.
16:40He knows the scales,
16:42but he doesn't know how to play it.
16:44And he plays Bender.
16:46It's a piece of art.
16:48We want to show it to people
16:50who follow and are fans.
16:52So,
16:54the instrument
16:56goes from the string 4
16:58to the string 6.
17:00Ok, this is the first phase.
17:02Yes, the first phase.
17:04This is the first idea.
17:06You have to go to the string 6.
17:08To go to the string 6,
17:10it's a small circle.
17:12Yes, a small circle.
17:14You have to play the string 4.
17:16If you don't play it,
17:18it will go around your hand.
17:20You can't play it with this string.
17:22You have to go to the flat string.
17:24What is the flat string?
17:26It's the guitar string.
17:28The guitar will give me more spectrum.
17:30The guitar has an octave.
17:32So,
17:34the guitar will give me
17:36more octaves
17:38than the other strings.
17:40This is good.
17:42But,
17:44from the string 6 to the string 12,
17:46it's another phase.
17:48It's like doubling the strings.
17:50If we have double strings,
17:52like the Oud or the Mandolin,
17:54how will it sound?
17:56So,
17:58I took the
18:00spectrum,
18:02which is the guitar string,
18:04and I carved it
18:06and I gave it to the Spanish guy
18:08who had a guitar.
18:10I told him
18:12I want him to make a neck
18:14and a table
18:16like the table of
18:18the Flemish guitar.
18:20Because the Flemish guitar
18:22sounds good.
18:24It will give me
18:26some vibration.
18:28He said,
18:30let's work on it
18:32and we'll see the result.
18:34So, it's not a string,
18:36it's not a guitar,
18:38it's an octave.
18:40You can hear it a lot.
18:42Sometimes,
18:44you can hear
18:46the sound of a banjo,
18:48the sound of the string,
18:50the sound of the Oud.
18:52Can you play with it?
18:54Yes, I can play with it.
18:56I can play a song,
18:58I can play with it.
19:00So,
19:02this is the guitar
19:04and this is Zahra.
19:06Zahra, your new daughter.
19:08So,
19:10the story of Zahra.
19:12I heard that there is a live version
19:14and now it's the new one
19:16and the music video.
19:18The story of Zahra,
19:20and I'm a fan of the words of Zahra.
19:22The words are written
19:24in a Moroccan way,
19:26as they say, a little old,
19:28not modern.
19:30So, Zahra sings the songs
19:32in an old way
19:34and the group participates in it.
19:36They write the lyrics
19:38and everything.
19:40For example, the Spanish part
19:42in the live video,
19:44I didn't hear it.
19:46Since it's a salsa,
19:48why don't we make a part
19:50to hear the salsa in the live video?
19:52So,
19:54the songs are almost
19:56the same.
19:58We were in the residence
20:00and we were listening to the songs
20:02and we heard the same thing.
20:04This one is good,
20:06this one is bad.
20:08So, the song was released
20:10and it was the best.
20:12It was very popular.
20:14It was very popular
20:16and the audience liked it.
20:18They always asked us
20:20about Zahra.
20:22So, we decided to make the video.
20:24Basically,
20:26there were four songs
20:28written by Abdel Adem Selouane.
20:30He is the producer.
20:32Congratulations, Abdel Adem.
20:34He is from America.
20:36He is the producer of the band.
20:38He wrote the lyrics
20:40and he had the first lines.
20:42Then,
20:44Youssef Geriran
20:46gave it another dimension.
20:48He changed the lines.
20:50He changed the lines
20:52of Youssef.
20:54All the bases
20:56came from Abdel Adem.
20:58Then, we were in the residence
21:00in Hiba Studio.
21:02Thank you for the collaboration.
21:04In Hiba Studio,
21:06this started.
21:08Exactly.
21:10Everyone had an idea
21:12and integrated it.
21:14There was an opening
21:16and an ending.
21:18I gave the result of the four songs
21:20that were recorded in Hiba.
21:22After that,
21:24we recorded a song
21:26that we played yesterday.
21:28Hopefully, they will record a video
21:30and release it.
21:32How was the atmosphere
21:34in Arbat?
21:36Honestly, it was beautiful.
21:38How can I tell you?
21:40A lot of friends came
21:42to see our music.
21:44People who follow us
21:46on Instagram
21:48and our relatives
21:50came to see us.
21:52Honestly, it was beautiful.
21:54The atmosphere was great.
21:56I was very satisfied.
21:58Yesterday, I woke up
22:00and it was a good day.
22:02There was a lot of stress.
