Radio Al Hara’s Epic Non-Stop 72 Hour ‘Musical Protest 'Film Mishmish' is Now Online
Earlier this month, the Palestinian web radio station recruited artists from the region and from around the world for three days of non-stop programming as a protest against the further annexation of Palestine.
Between July 8th and 11th, Palestine’s Radio Al Hara hosted an epic, non-stop 72 hours of programming, featuring a diverse range of music, shows and talent. Named 'Fil Mishmish' (‘wishful thinking’ or ‘when pigs fly’), it was held as a protest against the further annexation of Palestine, a cause which not only got the backing of much of the independent music ecosystem in the region, but also from figures around the world.

In addition, the likes of Nicolas Jaar, Ben UFO, Mykki Blanco and Habibi Funk contributed segments and shows, making the ‘online audio festival’ a truly global event.
