Munma was created by Jawad Nawfal in the aftermath of Israel\u2019s war on Lebanon in the summer of 2006. It explores oriental harmonies and rhythmical patterns, with a strong reliance on sampled traditional musical beds, excerpts from radio speeches and the like, and an overall somber, reflective mood. <\/p>\n

Munma has produced three 6-track EPs, entitled 34 Days (2006) Black Tuesday (2007) and Unholy Republic (2008), released on former Lebanese record label Incognito Records.<\/p>\n

In 2010, Munma\u2019s 4th record was released, entitled Previews & Premises. The self-produced, self-released album consists of 8 tracks recorded between 2006 and 2010.<\/p>\n

In 2011, Munma started collaborating with lebanese writer, poet & rapper Mazen El Sayed. The album entitled \u201cEl Rass & Munma: Unveiling The Hidden,\u201d explores the darker sides of rap, and reveals deep electronica and dubstep musical influences.<\/p>\n

In 2012, apart from numerous sound designs for documentaries, a fiction short (\u201cA place to go\u201d by Wajdi Elian) and a dance choreography (\u201cTajwal\u201d by Alexandre Paulikevich), Nawfal started two new music monikers: \u201cTasjiil Moujahed,\u201d a electro- duo with Berlin-based musician, composer and producer C-drik Fermont; and \u201cInfinite Moment Of Composure,\u201d a noise\/electronica duo with Lebanese musician, visual artist and composer Liliane Chlela. <\/p>\n

Munma is one of Beirut’s first and foremost talents in the field of modern electronica, with a variety of live and studio projects since the early 2000s, including AEX, Ae_Quo, Index\/Left and more recently Tasjiil Moujahed & Infinite Moment Of Composure. His DJ sets are the stuff of legend, high-flying, mind-blowing affairs in which he dexterously spins breaks, electro, garage, dubstep and hiphop, as well as his own productions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
