Habibi Funk // حبيبي فنك : Carthago - Hanen (Tunisia,1979)

soundcloud.com/habibifunk // habibifunk
Carthago was the follow up band to Dalton (الترجمة العربية أسفله), the legendary band that only released one 7" that we reissued some time ago. Carthago was the result of Marhaba Band and Dalton joining forces to become a new band together, kind of the Habibi Funk all star band of Tunis. We will reissue a 12" by Carthago very soon, including unreleased instrumental versions. The 1979 disco version of "Alech" is definitively the key track, if you ever came to a Habibi Funk party you will know it, but let's start with another track "Hanen" to get into the project.
قرطاجو كانت تابعة لفرقة الدالتون، الفرقة الشهيرة التي لم تطلق سوا ألبوم 7" واحد "علاش" و الذي أعدنا إحيائه و إخراجه من قبل.
قرطاجو فرقة نتجت عن اندماج لفرقتي "مرحبا" و "الدالتون" حيث اتحدت الفرقتين لتكونا فرقة جديدة، مثل أغلب الفرق المهمة في تونس بالنسبة ل "حبيبي فانك".
سوف نعيد إحياء 12" لفرقة قرطاجو قريبا بما فيه التسجيلات الموسيقية التي لم ترى الحياة. أهم قطعة سوف تكون النسخة الديسكو ل "علاش" في السبعينات، و ستلمسون ذلك في حال حضر أحدكم إحدى حفلات حبيبي فانك. أما الآن فلنبدأ بقطعة أخرى ألا و هي " حنين" لنفتتح المشروع.

[@martinriess3599]

[@hamzajenifi8397]

Wait, you are Fawzi Chekili's son??? I'm from Portugal, and I love his work, both with Dalton and Carthago, but also his jazz albuns, especially Bédouine and Taqasim

[@husamaltalhi8579]

It’s about a girl named hanen (حنان)
---
من بعد المحبة يا حنان
و وعد المودّة و الغرام
هاجرتي وانا وحدي و الأوهام
After the love ,oh hanen
And the promise of affection and passion
You left me alone with my illusions
فين انتي يا حنان يا قمر الزمان
Where are you Hanen, o you moon of all time
خليتنا ليه حرام ما بيدي حيلة
You left us and thats haram(forbidden-or such a crime), now it’s out of hand
عد للأيام الهنا و الودّ و الوفاء
Go back to the days of our love and loyalty
حتى نعيش سوى في دنية جميلة
So that we can live in a beautiful world
-thats it
