The whole adventure started after a friendly jam session in August 2006. The two friends were often exchanging ideas and thoughts about music and naturally, they started to compose togheter. They quickly realised that their compositions were really unique and interresting, so they decided to record a demo. This demo simply called ? Manahil ? was in fact the first draft of what would become their first album ? Hadayane ?. The general mood of Manahil's music is dark and strongly influenced by arabian music. There is also a lot of electronic, progressive, ambient and even metal influences in the mix, creating its own unique style.
During their first year of existance, Manahil worked on their debut album ? Hadayane ? wich is a global view of Manahil's mysterious and original music. The album was released during September 2007 and was well received from listeners and critics. Now the duet concentrates on the recording of an EP that will complete Hadayane with some songs that was not included on the album. This CD will reveal the other side of Manahil's music with a more acoustic sound and a lot more place for Hind's voice.
