about

After releasing the World re-known "Arabadub" album in 2013, The Spy from Cairo returns with a deeper & more cosmic dance-floor sound. Coming back from numerous travels abroad with bigger club & festival performances, he switched from the traditional Oud to an electric Oud, which made things much easier traveling & live. The first two songs we get to hear from his forthcoming album in Autumn 2017 are here. "Sirens of the Nile" is a late night 110 BPM driving four to the floor groove mixed with live Oud, violin/ orchestra lines & echoing vocals. "Open Sesame" features the Oud over hypnotic electronic sounds & a crisp 90+ bpm boom bap beat. The cover was a photo taken from a previous tour in Egypt mixed with a photo of the burnt ambers of a late night festival around a fire.

These rhythmic profound beats are simply.. soul penetrating! You can almost close your eyes and see the that music has colours and movement! But this is not my only favourite song from the album, though, it's just a great great wonderful album! Thank you kikapaprika
