2020 saw the launch of Cairo-based label RAKETE alongside its first VA ‘Cairo Quest’, followed shortly by a well-received EP ‘Hope Amidst Despair’ in December. Now, RAKETE’s third release, ‘Ready For Nothing’ arrives by way of newcomer Postdrone, who draws upon the inherent dissonant noise of Cairene existence, and the suppression of left-field works in the face of a deeply commercialized musical landscape.

Postdrone’s debut presents a genre-less, intuition-driven exploration of electronic musical composition, soundtracking moments of personal connection through introspective rhythms and spacious fields, alongside two remixes by label-mate Hassan Abou Alam, who brings a warm club-focused dive into Postdrone’s original works.

Ashrar about the track: "I feel the most comfortable when I know there is no outside interference around me. Headphones give me the feeling of solitude, which allows me to work in peace."

[Swine Premiere] Ashrar - Impolite (MOSHTRQ)

MOSHTRQ VA01: Stepping away from the realms of live performance, MOSHTRQ announces their first musical work as a collective, drawn from an extensive unreleased catalogue, and bringing together crew, friends, and collaborators.

Through an exploration largely centred around visions and high tempos, glimpses of leftfield magnetism appear through Postdrone’s warped breakbeats and strained vocal chops.

Yaseen and Dakn reunite for tempo-shifting hybrid-bass, following up Ashrar’s rattling granulated futurism and intricate sound design. Assyouti’s signature rhythmic hyper-club - alongside Galala’s punches of ominous jungle-techno - sit within haunting moments of respite by way of ambient contributions by Ambi and Belahadaf, through subterranean worlds of twisted synthesis and militaristic sampling.

MOSHTRQ VA01 is bookended by two collaborative works of Timo 1_2*, whose efforts and influence extend far beyond the bounds of this project.

*with an appearance by Lil Abad

I Was So by @thisisismael

Following the devastating explosion at the Port of Beirut on August 4, Ma3azef teamed up with New York-based mastering engineer Heba Kadry to curate a compilation by regional and international musicians to raise funds for the continuous relief work being done on the ground in Beirut to help those who have been failed by the Lebanese state.

Today, we're happy to announce two additional remixes to be added to the compilation: ZULI's Kiwii, remixed by El Kontessa; Deena Abdelwahed's Wein El Malayeen, remixed  by Ancient Methods.

The 19-track compilation includes contributions by the likes of Fatima Al Qadiri, Nicolás Jaar, ZULI, Slikback, and others. Bringing sounds together from the different crevices of electronic music, it is a humble attempt to galvanize musicians and listeners into supporting a city that has been integral in shaping the region’s contemporary music scene.

All proceeds from the sales of the compilation are going to local initiatives to provide assistance to those affected, they will be divided between Fundraising Campaign for the Arts and Culture Community in Beirut organized by AFAC; Beirut Musicians' Fund organized by Tunefork Studios, and Beit el Baraka.
