Born in Manama, Bahrain, Alfanan started playing music at the age of 6. After coming to Texas to further his studies, he composed and produced his first album, Desert Beat, at the age of 20. He now resides in Lewisville, Texas, where he is composing and producing his own music, as well as producing music for local artists. His first solo album was mainly distributed in the Middle East, but has gained critical acclaim since October 1999 through the Internet, mainly on MP3.com and IUMA.com. The album has consistently maintained a high ranking on the top 40 charts in both the world music and ambient genre classifications. Alfanan's album delivers the intellects of all cultures into one world through the words of music. You will not be able to escape from this journey.

These are some reviews that he's received regarding his album Theraputica:

"This music is deep and rich, often morphing Middle-Eastern themes and traditional instrumentation with modern electronics and effects. Hashim is a producer and musician with a magnificent ear whose music creates multiple moods and dazzles the spirit. Get comfortable and listen with patience, you are certain to be satisfied," Riffage.com.

"Alfanan makes his Arabic melodies accessible to Western listeners of Ambient and New Age by adding thick veneers of smooth, down-tempo beats and blissful keyboard washes. Flute and Oud melodies accompany his emotive singing," Listen.com. Other press releases/reviews can be seen on Alfanan's official website.
