a warm, nostalgic dance of memory, roots and reinvention

‘disco boi beirut’ glows like a memory waking up, warmer and brighter than you remembered it. john lebanon revisits his 2017 track with a faster pulse and a deeper sense of home, weaving nostalgia and movement into something that feels both intimate and expansive. the result is a song that shimmers with longing, joy and the quiet ache of places that live inside you.

based between boston and beirut, john lebanon builds a world shaped by childhood echoes, new york energy and the pull of family roots. smooth grooves slide beneath indie pop textures, while isabelle malhame’s vocals add warmth that softens every edge. the mix of english and arabic lyrics becomes a bridge, carrying desire and memory across continents. it is playful and hypnotic, especially in the arabic refrain that loops like a distant voice drawing you closer. the production blends old recordings with new layers, preserving the intimacy of the original while opening it into a bigger, brighter space.

this reimagined version feels like both a celebration and a homecoming, a dance track shaped by reflection and affection. it moves the body, but it stays in the heart.

thank u for making this john lebanon 🌙
