Edits

Out via Bandcamp on the 25.10.21 https://moving-still.bandcamp.com/

Moving Still is back with three Egyptian bangers for a freebie EP called Ouddy Bangers Vol.1. It follows on from his infectious disco floor-filler Sidi Mansour (Moving Still Edit), which took the festival circuit by storm, and his italo-esque edit of Egyptian pop star Azza Kamal's 'Maadna Bkra' in collaboration with Dutch producer Tjade. Both edits reached #1 in Rush Hour's best sellers chart and played out across the world with support from Palms Trax, Hunee, Skatebård, David Vunk, CC:DISCO!, Esa Williams and Nabihah Iqbal.

The A side is a love letter to Hamid El Shaeri, king of Westernised synth-pop in Egypt. A1 features Cheb Arab who was the protege of Hamid, sadly making only one album before dying in mysterious circumstances. “Lo Kan”, from the album of the same name, tells the story of love, patience and passion. The track features Moving Still’s signature arpeggiated bassline and pitched down vocals to add depth to the passionate lyrics. The resulting edit is dancefloor ready, whilst still retaining the emotion of the original. Meanwhile the A2 is the last track from the first album of Magdy El Shaeri, composed by his older brother Hamid. Western pop with a Middle Eastern twist, the Arabic maqam trills are at home with the funky guitar and synth sounds. The saturated TR707 gives the track a grittier feel, and a reverb-heavy Roland JX3P motif is carried through the song.


The B side is Egyptian pop royalty Simone, produced by one half of Germany’s Modern Talking, Dieter Bohlen. The lyrics reflecting on life are unusually emotive for an Italo disco-esque banger, and these act as inspiration for the recreation of the song. The dialogue between the 303 and ARP bass provides the track with a distorted core, and the mournful lead in the outro is recreated and repeated to amplify the melancholy of the track. This infectious upgrade is sure to be in your ears for long after the last note ends.

“The idea of the edits is that they are my favourite Egyptian artists and the songs are really personal to me. I always imagined these musicians to have worked together at some point because of their shared connection to Hamid El Shaeri and possibly gone out together for a bit of argila (shisha) and some vino.


I wanted to share these tracks with everyone for free as a thank you for the enduring support I have received over the last number of years. I hope it gives you the same HI-NRG and joy it gave me while editing them!”


Moving Still has collaborated with two Lebanese artists on the artwork for this EP release.

Cheb Arab - Lo Kan (Moving Still Edit)

Dacou - Nach Ke (Edit)

We're back with another huge edit from the one and only @Lau-Tropico

In his words....

“Ya La Torkia” is a ballad by Algerian Rai singer Cheb Amar. The singer narrates a story of love and enchantment dedicated to a woman named Torkia, accompanied by the rhythmic cadence of a bendir (a traditional North African drum). In this poetic journey, he seeks answers to the complexities of unrequited love. This edit serves as an ode to the original composition - a personal interpretation of Cheb Amar’s lyrical prowess.

Aaro Vahtera aka Aaron Maple is a producer and DJ from Finland. He is a member of a collective and label called Free Shelter focusing on obscure and esoteric music.
Aaron Maple is mostly known for his edit releases with support from world known DJs every corner in the world. He has released music for example via Free Shelter, Dar Disku , Awesome orientalists from Europa and Serenades.

About the edit : " "I first got to know to this song via my friend Markus who introduced the Global Village's album to me. I fell instantly in love with the vocals and percussions of the Robenji Doom Doom track. In my edits there is always a functional reason why I start making one. The original track was too restless for my taste and I decided to make a bit deeper and darker than the original was. 
Vocals and percussion was the core and I made the edit around them. I added new drums and made new baseline and synth melodies. I did a massive restructuring in the song's structure and played with some effects. All the elements clicked together very well and fast I was really happy with the result. The edit works really well in the early hours in the club and also as played a bit faster in the peak time hours. Definitely one of the best edits I have made so far. "

The story behind the edit:
@aaronmaple first discovered Amira Saqati through a mixtape he was listening to via Soundcloud last fall. He remembers quickly browsing Amira Saqati's discography after the discovery and enjoying many songs from it. Hel Aeynik's vocals and melody got him right away. 
Aaron Maple version is a dancefloor oriented version with more groove to play at peak time. He recorded new drums and a new bassline. And he reorganized the structure and played with samples but kept vocals in the core element of the song.
