Sary Moussa
Sary Moussa composes with a deep
sensitivity to space
— not only physical, but emotional,
historical, and sonic.
Based between Lebanon and France, his work explores the edges of electronic and electro-acoustic composition, drawing on personal memory and collective resonance without collapsing into narrative or fusion.
His practice often involves Western and West Asian instruments — Hammond organ, clarinet, buzuk, saz — set alongside electronic processing, field recordings, and generative systems. Each element retains its texture and weight. Rather than force coherence, Moussa allows tension and distance to shape the music’s form.
Recordings unfold slowly, with subtle shifts and careful pacing. Live, this becomes a shared listening space: attentive, patient, and present. Stories are suggested, not told; forms are held, not completed. Moussa’s work resists resolution — inviting you to stay with what remains.

Other People is a label and publishing platform founded in New York in 2013 by Nicolás Jaar
Run by Jaar together with Nicolina Claeson, and guided by a deliberately low-profile presence, the label’s catalogue spans over ninety releases that slip between genre and form. Projects like 2021's Caves, a compilation of silences featuring Laraaji, Aho Ssan, Ana Quiroga, and others, and Weavings, a collaborative live piece with among others Juliana Huxtable, Ellen Fullman, Wukir Suryadi, and Rully Sha;ara of Senyawa, and Angel Bat Dawid. Other releases include works by Lucrecia Dalt, Lydia Lunch, Aho Ssan, Dienne, Sary Moussa, aylu, and the debut album from Ali Sethi & Jaar.
Beyond output, Other People is defined by its structure where artists retain all rights and determine their own revenue post-recoupment. Any profits are redistributed through grants, studios, and workshops such as the Overtones grant for LA musicians, Ladridos grant, and series of Workshops in Santiago de Chile, the Alrowwad electronic music grant and workshop in Bethlehem and (un)building listenings workshop at Dar Jacir in Bethlehem. Moreover, it has donated to over three dozen exceptional organizations and individuals through the 'Thank you for existing Grant'.
Aiming to highlight and offer a platform for artists outside the mainstream, Other People is a label that listens; to artists, to context, to the ground beneath the sound.
