With Resonance, Acid Arab delivers an electronic project conceived as a true translation between cultures, eras, and musical currents. The group brings together Eastern elements and electronic textures, giving them equal importance. Far from any folklore, irony, or exoticism, they craft a musical landscape freed from geography a dance space where the celebration of diverse cultures honors a profoundly humanistic unity. An Acid Arab track seeks neither to impose itself nor to prove anything. It opens up a space of fusion, of both bodies and minds.With this fourth album, the group reaffirms it's core principles collaborations with artists from the Arab world, meticulous attention to sound and production, here enriched by the unique contribution of an external producer, who brings in new expertise to the table.Guests - Yasmine Hamdan, a leading figure in contemporary Arabic music, originally from southern Lebanon.

2010 , the long-awaited follow-up to the acclaimed Copia, Eluvium takes a courageous creative leap with Similes, an album featuring key elements previously uncharted by Eluvium percussion, a verse-chorus song structure, and singing. For a celebrated experimental musician, it was just about the bravest and scariest direction to go. In this way, Similes is the most truly experimental Eluvium album yet, and the most accessible.
