Hand to Hand is a new cassette tape edition by Aventures LTD press is collaboration with Unibrow Sun (Sabri Sundos), Glue Factory Radio (Andrew Miller) and Michelle Nazzal. This project draws inspiration from histories of bootleg mixtapes exchanged by family and through travel across the Arab diaspora. It pays homeage to the preciousness of music as a souvenir, a time capsule and emotional bed, especially for people displaced or in exile.
“…whenever someone returned from abroad, they carried suitcases filled with pieces of home. Cassette tapes and CDs were a big part of that home. They were quickly dubbed, recopied and passed along, hand to hand, through a community hungry for connection. I remember my parents; friends arriving with stacks of freshly recorded tapes, ready to share. These exchanges shaped my earliest sense of home- not just a place, but a feeling carried through sound, scent and memory.” - Sabri
This cassette comes housed in a box containing a newsprint poster and postcard
Edition of 300 with proceeds going to The Sameer Project a donations based initiative, led by Palestinians in the disapora, working to supply aid to displaced families in Gaza
