Pure bliss. Habibi Funk label releases are always reliably excellent, but this is high-tier even by their standards. Difficult choice between Matar Al Sabah and Lahnon Lemra'ati Wa Beladi for my favorite song here. Gaslight Gatekeep Girlboss
Terry Venemous is releasing new music every 3 weeks this year. His latest EP is sumptuous art pop with a wry sense of detachment.

excellent - love it from beginning to end. Destined to become one of my favorite @Habibi_Funk releases (& that’s a high benchmark).
Egypt Pop from dreamy to disco … fantastic voice & equally great band & clever arrangements. Strong melodies. This one will stay.
& the fact that I think that I hear a slight Egyptian echo of the synths from Jeff Wayne’s „War of the Worlds” on “Law Affeina El Ard” only adds to the fun! Andreas Krüger
