On Wenu Wenu, Syrian singer Omar Souleyman brilliantly blends old-school dabke music with modern influences to create an irresistible amalgam. Serpentine oud lines mix with snaky synthesizers until you’re not sure which is which; a similar sleight of hand occurs between the traditional Eastern percussion and electronic beats. At the center of it all is Souleyman’s singing, so perfectly enmeshed in the driving feel of dance tunes like "Ya Yumma" and "Warni Warni" that it, too, is difficult to separate from its surroundings.
