Narratives co-founders Mustafa Ismaeel and Alaa Jazaeri join forces with LA based Ramy Mishriky on a record that crosses continents and generations. Inspired by the timeless wisdom of the iconic Lebanese poet Khalil Gibran, the track transforms his enduring words into a funk driven dance floor story.
Built around a rolling bassline and elevated by a cinematic melodic line, ‘From Afar’ delivers a groove that is both soulful and commanding. It moves with intention, blending rhythm and emotion into a sound that feels intimate yet borderless. All three producers are shaped by the Arab diaspora, finding deep resonance in Gibran’s legacy as a writer who bridged East and West. In that spirit, From Afar becomes more than a track. It is a dialogue between cultures, between memory and movement, between distance and connection.
You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘From Afar’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
