Great site!
I especially love their Abdel Hay Hilmi's biography. Regardless whether
the first paragraph is true, It cracked me up.
I also sat down and listened to all his recordings in my collection
to see whether that part about him cursing Baidaphon's company is true.
They surely went into quite a tarab in those sessions to not notice any of it. 
Nate.

What is interesting is the people and the serious board that are behind: most of them are knowledgeable authorities from around the Arab world and
Europe : like Lotfi m'raihi, Frederic Lagrange, (our) Mustapha Said, Nidaa Abu Mrad, Akram rayess and others.
I'd tend to believe that the Infos on Abdel Hay Hilmi are reliable and yes the podcasts look very interesting.
Good thing that someone is starting a serious reference site on that level.
