After a decade of anticipation, it’s happening! The talk of the year is now out. Yeedle Werdyger has an album full of hits called “הוא ולא אחר- Hu V’Lo Acher”
Yeedle, one of the most prominent names in chasidic music, “The Prince of Jewish Music”, is considered one of the highest-quality music producers in the sector in recent decades, and now it’s happening again! Every song is colorful, every sound is meticulous, and every melody is more refined than the previous one. The process of creating the album went through a long journey of dozens of first-class composers, arrangers, musicians and technicians, with the result leaving no words.
“הוא ולא אחר- Hu V’Lo Acher”unites 14 excellent tracks, featuring the best of the best, and a number of carefully selected surprising duets, including three musical generations of the Werdyger family, his father – Mordechai Ben David, Lipa Schmelzer, Aharon Razel, Yitzchak Ben Arza, Benny Horowitz, and Yeedle‘s son – Chaim Eliezer.
From the album, “Kumi Ori” is released as a single, composed by Yitzchak Ben Arza, the song with the ever-relevant lyrics “Komi Uri, for your light has come” about the imminent and coming redemption, connects in a direct and chilling context to the continuation of the quote from the Navi Yeshayahu – “No more violence will be heard in your land, robbery and destruction in your borders”
