It's Not Complicated

Asifeh x Firas Shehadeh - Shadow Unit  [Ma3azef]

Between May 2012 and August 2013 I shared a flat in Heliopolis with 3 of my best friends. Because we were all artists, it was naturally one of the most inspiring times of my life. 

Now, there are few things in life I hate more than doing the washing up, so I cut a deal with them where I'd be in charge of doing laundry for everyone, and in return, never have to do the dishes - ever. We had this 1970s Whirlpool washing machine that used to make the most interesting sounds. 

I was hanging out in the kitchen one day waiting for it to finish and the sounds coming out of it were so rhythmic, I decided to have a go at emulating them, and that's how "Pt A" happened; I threw in an Anne Peebles sample and it became a Swag Lee beat. Of course the next step was to sample the machine using my field recorder. So I did that and made "Pt B", "Pt C" and "Pt D" (the latter revolves around clicks from twisting the machine's main knob). 

Almost a year later, I realized I had 4 finished Doing Laundry tracks, 2 of which people have only heard in my live sets. So I put them together on an EP along with an Abyusif remix of "Pt B" and - for jokes - a couple of mash-ups of some old Egyptian detergent ads.

Saint Abdullah's 'Where do we go, now?' out now on cassette and digital edition via PTP.

All proceeds of this album go to the New York Immigration Coalition: 
www.nyic.org

“'Where do we go, now?' captures the sounds, stories, and full weight of what it feels like to live in a country, and broader political context, that considers one’s identity as the root of all its problems. We are are not in search of answers, or a path forward; we are in the mood to grieve, the only way we know how.”

A cavern of noise, dizzying loops, field recordings, and free jazz. Saint Abdullah is the sonic language of Iranian-Canadian brothers, Mohammad and Mehdi.
