Jamhoureya follows four daring Egyptian musicians as they reconnect with their country’s distinct rural soundscapes. Traditions are scrambled and space and time merge as cutting-edge musical minds collaborate with those carrying the ancient heartbeat of Egyptian music. 

In this episode, Waleed meets with Amazigh musicians on the Siwa oasis, where her style collides with a bed of sampled tabla and more.

Follow Egyptian electronic artists Fulltone, Hassan Abou Alam, Hussein El Sherbini and Maii Waleed as they visit Luxor, Aswan, Marsa Alam and Siwa. In each episode, the artists travel to the location of their choice within Egypt in order to work with local musicians, sampling sounds for future use and inviting the community’s artists into their studios, culminating in a collaborative concert taking place November 24th, 2017.

Maii Waleed is a songwriter, guitarist and producer who tends to avoid the spotlight, but has nonetheless shone in a variety of different projects along her musical journey. Best known for her collaborations with Lebanese musician Zeid Hamdan and synth-pop outfit Ritza, Waleed’s solo work is a melange of various melancholic beats and indie vocals.
