Winding his hands around like an entrancing magician, Tarek Atoui turns sound waves into fantastically bewitching electric noises as the metal plates and electric wires covering his table form a mixed-up cauldron of experimental sounds. Add to that the super-energised, no-holding-back drumming of Uriel Barthelemi and you have one of the two sets of emotion-driven music witnessed on Thursday night at Beirut Art Center. It was the launch of Ziad Nawfal's The Ruptured Sessions Volume Two - live recordings of experimental music in the studios of Radio Lebanon and I became a fascinated fan.
