xquisite releases is proud to present ‘Summer in Sexilia’ the new album by Cecilia @babiaudi

On the winding roads of escape, running away from the burning city's suffocation, in search of air, Cecilia drowns in the thick, elemental romance of Sexilia island.

The landscape oozes and recalls the radical desire of adolescent souls, a chaste and mystical resistance which flutters and strolls above through ditches, railroad edges, highway exits, stinking alleys owned by starving cats.

Sparse and sculptural breaths, the songs are drunk with melancholic infatuation.

“Summer in Sexilia” is a sensory encounter with the great despair in which the lover's courage takes shape once again, sublime, hanging on the memory of the shining stars.

In the hallucinated Summer of Sexilia, the ground trembles, the hands get dirty and the world craves for real tenderness and silent ecstasy.

Moqawama (مقاومة), "resistance."

Amidst the ongoing genocide against the people of Gaza - having now surpassed the 100-day mark, and with deep mourning for the loss of over 30,000 Palestinians, over 10,000 of those being children - I felt a profound need to contribute in some way. This drive led me to start this fundraising project and, with the invaluable help of everyone involved, we've crafted this Various Artists compilation as a creative expression of solidarity and support for Palestine.

We reached out to friends and fellow artists from five different parts of the world (Egypt, Poland, Greece, China, Saudi Arabia), seeking their support in contributing their unique sounds to this project. MOQAWAMA V.A. has evolved into a kaleidoscope of electronic subgenres, spanning from Shaabi to experimental techno, sound design and drill.

~PROCEEDS~
The vast majority of humanitarian aid is unfortunately not reaching Gaza. The only scenario in which donations can be helpful and have an impact is through e-SIM purchases, for which there is currently a huge demand, due to the very frequent telecommunications blackouts imposed by "Israel".
Purchasing e-SIMs is literally life saving, as it allows people within Gaza to connect to the outside, to communicate with their families and also to show what's happening within Gaza.

We'll be using all proceeds from this release to purchase as many e-SIMs as possible and send them to gazaesims@gmail.com. This effort is run by Mirna El Helbawi, an Egyptian writer and journalist. You can find more information on gazaesims.com or follow @ Mirna_elhelbawi on X/Twitter.

Huge thanks to all the artists involved, and of course to Khaled (@ jalapineos/@ kain.xx) for providing his amazing artworks and helping with the project in overall, and PereNee for creating the teaser videos.

مع حالي من غير اي حمّاي
بتزكر كل اللي رمّاي
بحط سماعتي و بعلّي الصوت
شمس طالعة في سماي

لما اطلع فوق
لما أسوق بلدور 
لما اشوف الكون
لما اشوفك هون

بتأسف ع انتباهي
مش ملاقيه انتمائي
عم بستنا الدور
مع حالي و كلكم هون
مش فاهمه على الكون 
بحط سماعتي و بعلي الصوت

والعيون بضلها علي

Five years after the first instalment, ZULI revives his Swag Lee alias for a second pass at the Habibi Loops premise, leaning a little closer to “beats” without losing any of the mischief or extremity.

Working exclusively from scuffed, low-bitrate MP3 rips of Egyptian funk-and-jazz-inflected pop, Swag Lee fillets tiny inflection-points and holds them under a microscope. Instead of building tracks in the usual sense, the tape chains together sharp-edged loops, jagged edits, stop-start lurches and tiny breaths of swing frozen and reframed. Cut and paste is the operating logic, groove the fixation.

Threaded between the beats are short comic interludes lifted from Arabic reels and Facebook detritus, tiny sketches of Egyptian pop culture that interrupt the flow and flip the frame mid-tape. Where Vol. 1 leaned into abstraction, this one uses the same vandal energy to chase rhythm and body-feel, a crooked homage rerouted through ZULI’s experimental reflexes. Raw source, reckless surgery, and the loop treated as a unit of memory and mischief.
