2021/09/16

It’s been over a 140 sets since we last saw a Nour Fahmy pop-up in SceneNoise’s Select series and, in that time, the Cairo-based DJ has evolved in his sound, and he’s eve living a double life, thanks not a new techno alter ego, AT:MA. To be precise, Fahmy stepped forward for the fourth Select slot way back when with a house-driven mix, though this time round he brings techno into the occasion, and spices it with some acid-leaning, hypnotic tracks. Dig in.

2021/08/12

Inspired by the rapid evolution of Cairo’s party scene, Joe decided to get a piece of the pie and began teaching himself around 2018. For him, it seemed like the next natural step for a massive music fan like himself. With a long term goal of experimenting with sounds and introducing the Egyptian ear to some of the more unchartered sounds swirling around on the scene. His Select set is a reflection of this, as he dives headfirst into the world of UK garage, 2-step, bass, leftfield and electro, with

Music has always been a part of Yasser’s life, having learned to play the guitar at a young age.

With a curation inspired by the likes of DJJ Lion, Truncate, Maya Jane Cole, and Bend Sims, Deeb presents his case.

2021/04/29

A rebel at heart, Cairo-based DJ, Gobara, first fell in love with music through the likes of metal, rock and conscious rap - genres he says portray “the reality of life, uncut and unfiltered.” It still, to an extent, informs his current musical tastes - he enjoys, the gritty, the chaotic and the industrial, elements you’ll find readily in his exclusive one-hour mix for this week’s edition of Select. Featuring tracks from the likes of Ghost in the Machine, New Frames, Oleka, and Somniac One, this is
