"Dagaal nin aan aqoon baa ku orda" is a dj set inspired by a Somali saying meaning "A man who doesn’t know about war is likely the one who rushes to it."
I returned to my Ethiopian and Somali heritage, working with samples from my homelands and drawing from their inspirations. I hope you will enjoy this journey back home with me.
