End of Festival Party at the FeelBeit Club

We will conclude 2023’s festival with a party attended by artists from the festival at one of the city’s most unique places. We brought Mr. ID to the DJ podium, directly from Casablanca, with his exciting and groovy beat mixing, spiritual jazz and Funk rhythms all wrapped up in sounds and voices originating in the Atlas Mountains.

Abderrahman Elhafid, known by Mr. ID, is a Moroccan artist who got a lot of heart and guts. With his vinyl as tools and his personal life as inspiration, Mr. ID made a long international pilgrimage, taking in US Rap beats, Jazz spirituality and funk rhythms. Those influences became the foundation of his musical background, and served as the main body of his music creation for years.
When he made it back to Morocco, he rediscovered the magic of the traditional Moroccan and African notes. Mr. ID started to implement them in his music: the beats are mixed with delicious violin airs, African percussions and vocals from a long gone age that the Atlas Mountains still bear witness to a first in the genrethat became his signature. The vibes coming out of Mr.ID’s tracks brings up a mixture made of the history and music of the whole African Continent. As if all of the African people were joining their voices to scream their IDentity.

*FeelBeit is an Israeli-Palestinian cultural house, a ground-breaking arts incubator located on the border between East and West Jerusalem. The house first opened in 2019 as a pop-up project of “Sanctified”, an award-winning festival that created art and original music in an attempt to bridge gaps in the most complex city in the world. Today, FeelBeit is a permanent presence in Jerusalem’s arts and civil society scene.

* Shuttles to the afterparty will leave from the museum’s entrance starting 23:15.
