TootArd | West Asian Disco

In this episode of the Quartertones podcast, we were treated to the eclectic soundscapes of TootArd, a band that transcends musical and geographical boundaries. Formed by brothers Hasan and Rami Nakhleh in the picturesque setting of Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights, TootArd, meaning "Strawberry" in Arabic, has evolved from their reggae-inspired beginnings to embrace a myriad of influences including Tuareg style and psychedelic rock. Describing their style as "mountain rock reggae," TootArd's performances of "Moonlight," "Trouble Watan," and "Wanderlust" provide a sonic journey through the limestone mountainside of their youth to the stages of Europe and beyond. 00:00 Intro: Introduction to TootArd and Their Unique Blend of Sounds 02:20 Personal Collection: Insights into the Band Members' Musical Tastes 04:05 Golan Heights Roots: Impact of Growing Up in Majdal Shams 11:18 Musical Beginnings: Origins of TootArd's Interest in Music 13:49 Interlude #1 "Moonlight نور البدر": Mesmerizing Performance Showcasing TootArd's Musical Palette 18:19 Electronic Influence: Incorporation of Electronic Elements into Their Music 24:00 Interlude #2 "Trouble Watan تراب الوطن": Reflections on Identity and Belonging 28:06 Dance Music: Role of Dance Music in TootArd's Repertoire 32:40 Addressing Animosity: Dealing with Challenges and Animosity 37:18 Interlude #3 "Wanderlust": Yearning for Exploration and Adventure 42:34 Quick Q&A: Insights into TootArd's Creative Process and Inspirations 44:52 Audience Q&A on Inspiration: Discussing Inspirations Behind TootArd's Sound and Lyrics 45:31 Representative Song: Identifying a Song That Encapsulates TootArd's Essence 46:52 Songwriting Process: How TootArd Approaches Songwriting and Meaning 48:08 "Wanderlust" Discussion: Inspiration and Creation of "Wanderlust" 49:29 Evolving Music: Thoughts on Revisiting and Altering Old Productions 50:24 Naming TootArd: Story Behind the Band's Distinctive Name 52:13 Looking Ahead: TootArd's Aspirations for the Next Decade TootArd is a dynamic musical ensemble hailing from the Golan Heights, known for their innovative fusion of reggae, Tuareg style, and psychedelic rock into a cohesive sound dubbed "mountain rock reggae."
