About Munma
Jawad Nawfal created MUNMA in the aftermath of Israel’s war on Lebanon in the summer of 2006 – releasing three albums in quick succession for Lebanese imprint Incognito. In 2012, Jawad started working with Lebanese writer and slam poet Mazen el-Sayed aka El Rass, and the two musicians released two albums exploring the darker sides of rap, reconfiguring the genre to include elements of bass and electronica. Between 2014 and 12016, Munma collaborated with Belgian electronic producer Kirdec and released 5 albums on his label Syrphe Records with different contributors, including Liliane Chlela, Elyse Tabet, and Kirdec himself. His latest album “Three Voices”, an exploration of the human voice within an ambient electronic framework, was released on vinyl by Lebanese label Ruptured in June 2016.
