Review by Ejrin Hodzic

Album Review: SANATAIN by ليلى مراد – A Folk Odyssey Rooted in Emotion ليلى مراد’s SANATAIN is a captivating journey through the rich textures of Folk, World, and Country music. Released under the Virgin label and hailing from France, this album feels like an intimate conversation with the soul. It doesn’t just play; it breathes. With tracks that oscillate between tender ballads and vibrant storytelling, SANATAIN carves out its own space in the global soundscape. The album opens with "Ana Zai Ma Ana," a track that immediately grabs your attention. Its haunting melody and raw vocal delivery feel like a mirror to the listener's own emotions. The lyrics, introspective yet universal, linger long after the song ends. You find yourself humming it at odd moments—while brewing coffee or staring out a rainy window. There’s something about the way the strings swell in the background that makes you wanna pause whatever you’re doing and just… listen. Another standout is "Ya Tabib El Kalb." This one hits different. It’s got this hypnotic rhythm, almost like a heartbeat, paired with مراد’s voice that seems to carry the weight of untold stories. The chorus is simple but unforgettable, the kind of tune that sneaks into your head and refuses to leave. If you’ve ever felt heartache or longing, this track will resonate deep. It’s not overly polished, which works in its favor—there’s a realness here that feels rare in today’s music scene. Tracks like "Sanatain Wana Ahayel Feek" and "Rah El Hawa" further showcase مراد’s ability to blend poetic lyricism with evocative instrumentation. While some songs lean more traditional, others experiment subtly with modern touches, creating a balance that feels both nostalgic and fresh. The production quality is solid, letting the music speak for itself without drowning in unnecessary effects. What makes SANATAIN memorable isn’t just its sound—it’s the emotional weight behind it. Listening to this album feels like flipping through an old photo album. Each track captures a moment, a feeling, a memory. It’s not perfect, and maybe that’s the point. The imperfections make it human. In a world obsessed with playlists and fleeting trends, SANATAIN reminds us why albums still matter. It tells a story, start to finish, that stays with you. And honestly? After listening to it, I couldn’t help but wonder—how does someone pour so much soul into their work and still walk away unchanged? Maybe that’s the magic of ليلى مراد. Or maybe she’s just figured out what most of us are still searching for.
