The art of Boo - Kaput (2023) [Hi-Res]

"Kaput" is the second music album by Lebanese cartoonist and musician Bernard Hage, also known as "The Art of Boo". The work consists of a series of piano-based tunes that chronicle the artist's distress during the tumultuous crisis in Lebanon, from the early protests in October 2019 until his immigration to Berlin in June 2021. Working on the album started in 2020 as a solo project, with Bernard Hage composing the original melodies on his piano in the intimate setting of his apartment in Beirut. Along the way, he was joined by musician Anthony Sahyoun (Kinematik, Sanam) whose exceptional input on the music arrangement took the compositions to new heights. Composed, recorded and produced amid the chaos of political unrest, pandemic lockdowns, financial collapse, and the devastating Beirut port explosion, the sounds of the city and the artist's personal struggles were channeled into the creation of this album
