Interview:

Music is the feeding of spiritual feelings from the musician to the listener. As you can find many styles of music with different feelings; the real Music that stems from deep inside the musician is not from the instrument that plays or what you are listening to. The real musician puts the feeling first, then the instrument helps to create the music. The deep inside means the real state of the musician when they are composing the music. This is not the Musical state that lives for a while then disappears.

Music that feeds spiritual feelings is the real state of the listener when they are listening to the music they like. As a musician myself, I am honest when I compose or write any of my songs to deliver my music to the listener. So I recommend if anyone wants to play an instrument, they first need to find their own direction in music, and choose the right instrument which they can play to find themselves. I also recommend searching inside yourself. You may be a real artist, and may not even know it, so give yourself the space to know.

“Music is the feeding of spiritual feelings from the musician to the listener.”
– Khaled Sallam, bassist and vocalist in Konzaross
