This week’s free song is one of Doc Jazz’s Arabic songs and it’s called Falasteen (el 3alam), which means Palestine (The Flag). This song pays tribute to the cause for Palestinian freedom, and in its chorus says that the (Palestinian) flag will be raised over a free Palestine and a free Al Quds (Jerusalem).

The style of the song features a mix of modern and traditional instruments, which is also reflected in the beat, which mixes funky rhythms with Arabic rhythmical themes.
