Humanity Is Falling Apart by Moh Alileche Moh Alileche : Humanity Is Falling Apart.
 Music of the mountains of kabylia.

Humanity is Falling Apart, was entirely recorded at Sami Studio in Algeria in 2019 and contains 9 songs including: 2 instrumentals, 2 songs sung in English, 1 song sung in Arabic, French, Tamazight & English, a Happy Birthday song, a prelude and 2 other songs in Tamazight. Instrumentation: Guitar, mandol, bass, banjo, violin, piano, hand drums, drum kit, bendir, flutes, ullulation, vocals and back up vocals.

The new CD showcases some of Moh's most heartfelt songwriting yet. "A Salute to the Women of Kabylia" pays homage to the courage, determination, and beauty of the charismatic Berber women, who still wear the traditional outfits, and keep Kabyle culture alive. They're the educators who transmit so much of our tradition to new generations.

"I was Only Nineteen" is a deeply personal track, sung in English, that celebrates Moh's friendship with legendary North African singer/songwriter/activist Lounes Matoub, and recalls a trip the two took together from Algeria to France in the late '70s. The memory of Matoub looms large over this record - a prolific, passionate spokesman for the Amazigh/Berber people, who used his music as a platform for his activism. Matoub was assassinated for his outspoken music in 1998, at the age of 42.
