"Ahmed Malek was one of the most prolific Algerian composers of movie music.
He has produced soundtracks for a number of films (most popular are Les Vacances de l'Inspecteur Tahar, Omar Gatlato and Aziza), television shows and documentaries.

Born on March 6, 1931 in Bordj el-Kiffan, a town belonging to the Dar El Beida district in Algiers, Ahmed Malek, the eldest son of a nucleus of three brothers and a sister, started working at the factory very young To help her father in family livelihood.

His mother died when he was only twelve years old, and at that moment he made the choice to devote himself to the study of music.After graduating from the Conservatory of Algiers in flute and Musical theory, he became part of symphonic orchestra of RTA , the Algerian radio television born after independence.

From the end of the 1960s Ahmed Malek will sign the music of many soundtracks for films of different scenery. His music, able to create a very special mood: melancholic and thoughtful, emotional and touching, but never depressing, will draw on an incredible variety of styles and will move smoothly between modal jazz and funk, between tradition, Bossa Nova and electronic music , providing the basics of what will become modern Algerian music. Always elegant, huddled between grace and transgression, the sound of Ahmed Malek will leave an indelible mark over the years.

For decades, this great composer will lead the orchestra into which he has entered as a simple musician in his youth and will represent his country in international events in Japan, Canada, Cuba and Spain, obtaining several awards. As a composer he will be active until the end of the 1980s, then, as a result of health problems, he will retire to private life. He will die on July 24, 2008 in his home in El-Mouradia, on the heights of Algiers, and his body will be inhaled at the Sidi-M'hamed cemetery in Bordj el-Kiffan, his hometown.


For many years, the only chance to listen to his compositions, as well as enjoy watching movies, was offered by a double album titled "Ahmed Malek - Musique Originale de Films" made by the Algerian Ministry of Information and Culture in 1978. The hard discovery of the record made the work of this great author remain in the shadow of the western audience.

The gap was filled in 1995 by the French label "Club Du Disque Arabe" , which produced a CD dedicated to the compositions of Ahmed Malek entitled "Musique De Films En Algerie", but this production has also become virtually unavailable.

In May 2016, the emerging German label Habibi Funk Records, in collaboration with the artist's family, produced an album that includes 14 compositions by the Algerian composer and we will always be grateful for this fact to Jannis Stuertz thinking mind of the label.

In February 2017, a new Habibi Funk Records production was carried out, which collects Ahmed Malek's unpublished material from the experiments conducted in the early 1980s with synthesizers and electronic music. "
