Editing Gaguim

Gaguim is a series of audio recordings of ancient and partially unknown Chabad nigunim that are distributed within and outside of Chabad Chassidus. The nigunim are performed by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Amar and his family, under the institution Merkaz Ohr Menachem (Ashdod).

== Gaguim Albums ==
The Gaguim project is an initiative to restore ancient and unknown nigunim. The project has gained widespread popularity among broad audiences.

The albums include a selection of authentic Chabad nigunim sung with grace and warmth by Rabbi Amar and his sons, selected nigunim sung with spiritual elevation, special nigunim from his father's house, and nigunim etched from yeshiva study hall days that resonate in the heart.

The first disk was released in 2014, and several disks have been released since then, with the latest (sixth) released in 2022. Since 2022, only singles have been released but no complete albums.

== Chazanus Sections ==
Among the nigunim are also prayer and chazanus sections, which Rabbi Menachem Mendel Amar, the album's creator, released before Tishrei 2020. Rabbi Menachem Mendel Amar had the merit to hear these prayer sections from elder Chassidim and baalei tefillah in France including Rabbi Chanan Levin and Rabbi Shmuel Dovid Blinov and others.
