Abo ut the PSA:
The Palestinian Sound Archive is determined to preserve Pa lestinian audio history through different mediums : by re-releasing music/ sound recordings (in physical and digital formats), through club nights an d radio sets, through audio-visual installations, live performances and st orytelling sessions which situate the music in their cultural, social and political contexts. Working with the archive for the past five years, it h as become clear that it is not only these sounds that need to be safeguard ed, but the extraordinary histories and experiences of the musicians who m ade them, which form part of the broader Palestinian story. We have (so fa r) uncovered hundreds of stories of Palestinian artists, which we share th rough live performances focused on different musicians, and the wider musi c industry, including tales of how they made and distributed their work in the face of displacement, censorship, exile, persecution, arrests, the Fi rst and Second Intifadas and other major events.
The Palestinian Sound Archive was founded by Mo’min Swaitat in 2020 but is comprised of and sup ported by freelance visual and sound artists, musicians, DJs, curators, or ganisers and researchers, without whom the work would not be possible.
