We’ve composed an original soundtrack for Nour Wazzi’s UK Film Council-backed short film Habibti, which stars Hiam Abbass (The Visitor, I Am Slave), Yasmine Al Massri (Caramel, Miral) and Jimmy Akingbola (Rev., Holby City).
Working closely with Nour, we pared the sonic palette down to a spare 5-piece ensemble, fusing Middle Eastern and Western elements to support the unfolding narrative and brilliant performances.
Here’s the full original soundtrack, plus a cheeky bonus unused cue! ’Mama’ is a key cue, so check that first if you’re in a hurry…

Undoubtedly the only sensible thing to do now you have listened to the above is to move on to our full film soundtrack reel.
