Biography :
Hassane Idbassaid was born in Tiznit, in the south of Morocco in 1973. His childhood is influenced by Berber music and the sound
of the traditional instruments. It’s the history of a young man who made his own instrument when he was nine years old, and created
his first band at eleven.
At 18 years old, he is inspired by a lot of melodies, modern and old ones. Ibdassaid has listened to the music of the entire world,
from India to Occident. He loves to mix up old instruments with the new ones. He plays with the greatest names of Berber music and he
starts composing his own melodies taking inspiration from Hadj Belaïd, Ahmed Amentague and Saïd Achtouk, whom he pays tributes to in
three albums.In 1985, he takes a flight to Paris to join his father. He discovers the lights of this big city, full of clubs, bars,
musicians…and adopts this town in his heart. He meets Ammouri M’Barek, a Mythic character of the Berber Music , who gives him inspiration.
Together they will be touring in several european countries.
Idbassaid has released fifteen albums so far, all produced and distributed in Morocco and worldwide (Japan, Europe, USA, and Canada).
His new album “Chahwa” is influenced by Berber music but also modern sound, all titles are original and sung in tamazight (berber language)
except one song in French, “Paris”.
