Two or The Dragon

Two or The Dragon is the electroacoustic duo of Abed Kobeissy and Ali Hout. The project is a result of the duo’s common interest in urban sounds and Arabic music. While approaching Beirut’s urban soundscapes as a local aesthetic and a main component in their work. The duo’s unique sound of processed Buzuq and percussions, combined with their background in traditional Arabic music, takes the sonic, visual, and pseudo-political day-to-day that is Beirut and reflects it onto a hyper-realistic soundscape. They released their first album “Prelude For The Triumphant Man” in 2017, composed many live scores for contemporary dance and theater productions, and are in the process of releasing their second album this year. They’ve performed their work in Lebanon, Germany, Sweden, Norway, UK, France, Belgium, Italy, Ireland, USA, Canada, Chile, UAE, and Egypt.
