“Cheb i Sabbah was a musical pioneer, fusing together entire cultures of sound and music, pushing cutting edge blends of traditional songs with beats and ideas which were way ahead of his time. Chebiji” as he was affectionately known passed away November 6, 2013 at the age of 66 after being diagnosed with stomach cancer over 2 years ago. At that time he was given 4 weeks to live and through a combination of alternative therapies funded by his friends and fans, along with a sheer will to live, he exceeded all expectations for someone with an advanced stage of cancer.”
Cheb i Sabbah’s family has two kids and three grandkids, all of which were greatly dependent on him. The EDMTunes family is glad to see Bassnectar acting upon this unfortunate passing by producing a wonderful cause.
