1) Relatively unknown ambient hip hop producer. From France, Paris - http://1nes.bandcamp.com/
2) NES is a ethno soul/jazz band consisting of three artists with one unified musical identity. These three international musicians joined their talents while living by the Mediterranean sea in Valencia, Spain. Nesrine Belmokh, a French-Algerian singer & cellist, Matthieu Saglio, a French contemporary cellist and David Gadea, a Spanish well rounded percussionist personify the essence of NES.
Through a process of self discovery and exploration of their roots and identity, their sound has been shaped by the richness and background of their lives and musical experiences, ranging from jazz to classical, soul and Arabic traditional music. Their songs in english, arabic and french, are full of grace and emotion and nurtured by the magic chemistry that emerges from their creative minds. The album, named after one of the songs, Ahlam, means 'dream' in Arabic. “There is no beauty without a concept of goodness” (translated excerpt from the song’s chorus).
NES’s music and unique personalities have captivated audiences around the world at relevant stages such as the Festival des Suds in Arles, le Printemps des Suds in Vence, the Usina del Arte in Buenos Aires, Sibiu Jazz Festival in Romania, and Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, among others.

NES Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
و فرحي بقربك في ليلي إحساسي غريب
أحلم بالسلام و الأمل في بستان الحب
لا لا أكون جميلة بلا إحسان
أعيش زيّك سعيد ناسي
الحب و الإحسان بإحساسي
أحلم بالسلام و الأمل في بستان الحب
لا أكون جميلة بلا إحسان
أبعث رسالة في جنة الأشواق
أحلم بالسلام و الأمل في بستان الحب
لا لا أكون جميلة بلا إحسان
