UNTITLED TRACKS: ON ALTERNATIVE MUSIC IN BEIRUT is a collection of texts and photos
which begins to chart the manifold, mutating and increasingly visible alternative musical
landscapes in Beirut. Through a generous series of photographs taken from Tanya Traboulsi's
ongoing project Music is Life, as well as reflective texts on topics such as the melancholy
sound of Soapkills, the politics and relevance of noise, and the interference of genres,
this publication investigates the resonances of music and noise in the organized chaos
and politics of everyday life.
