The fact is that they are poorly represented in many areas of society, including the electronic music scene.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>And yet, Swana electro artists are on a roll in every major metropolis in the world! Montreal, however, is no exception to the trend. The city is full of little treasures, but they are more often acclaimed abroad or outside the province than on the island. Their visibility in the media or on the big stages or at major events is still rather minimal here.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>With this feature by our contributor Salima Bouaraour, PAN M 360 shines the spotlight on this thriving pool of artists involved in the development of Montreal&#8217;s cultural and nightlife scene, as well as promoting and defending the values of equality, justice, creativity, inclusivity and the celebration of Arab beauty.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>In this festive spirit of coming together, a compilation will take you into their respective universes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Before that, there&#8217;s an analysis that deserves your full attention.

These include, of course, the Arab World Festival, which has been running for 23 years and has become a not-to-be-missed event, the Moroccan Cultural Centre, which has been based here since 2014, and which contributes to interculturality, the interaction and coexistence of different civilizations and cultures, as well as promoting convergence and rapprochement between them, and micro-festivals such as the Palestine Festival (to be launched in 2023).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">But what about the fragmented electronics area? Some would say nothing! If we&#8217;re talking about the representation of Arab electronic artists programmed at more institutional events or renowned festivals. The number is tiny. And yet these artists from the community are numerous, extremely prolific and extremely creative! In some cases, they are better known abroad than on the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:20px\">As always, data is lacking or sparse when it comes to issues that are nested or possibly considered subaltern by some.
