Shkoon
Shkoon (Levantine Arabic: شكون, pronounced [ʃkuːn]; transl. "What?") is a German–Syrian band based in Hamburg, Germany. The band was formed in 2015 when Ameen Khayer (born in Deir ez-Zor, Syria) and Thorben Diekmann (born in Hamburg) met during a spontaneous jam session in their flat. Their music is a message for cultural diversity that mixes old traditional music elements of the Arab community, such as Syrian folklore with modern electronic beats. Shkoon released their debut album Rima in 2019, followed by their live album Firaq in 2022, and their latest studio album Masrahiya in 2023.
