Noods Radio show 029 w/ ZULI Pt.2 | 26.06.2021

It has always been a struggle to sum up the sounds of Zuli. The Egyptian sound artist, producer and multi-instrumentalist is restlessly creative and unconventional in what he does. He can do everything from rap, IDM, footwork to hardcore jungle and experimental rhythms, and mainly on Lee Gamble’s UIQ label. He's also done a lot for his native Cairo scene as co-founder of both the Kairo is Koming (KIK) and AHOMA collectives, and former co-head of the city's alternate music venue VENT which later turned into a club night and festival. He's now firmly established in the wider European scene, not least in part thanks to his excellent radio show on NTS. 

There is no messing around on this week's mix. It's a dystopian soundtrack that unites Arab music, Chicago club, European techno and UK bass. Every track fizzes with energy, prickly percussion or distorted drums. It's intricate yet heavy, dense yet atmospheric and the warped designs and contorted rhythms make an art form of physicality.

Unlike my other studio mixes, I decided to record this one with more of a "live" approach; one shot, no editing, and most of the programming was done on the spot. In order to do so I pretended I was in a club, playing to an imaginary crowd at peak time. It's definitely sloppy at parts and if I were to do it again I would probably tweak the set list a bit, but I like the idea of documenting this authentic feel of getting to know most of these tracks for the first time in the context of a DJ set all together. It sounds like something you would hear from me on one of the first nights at the beginning of a tour.

Mix For DIFFUSIONS Festival by Le Cabanon Records June 2020

Ahmed El Ghazoly aka ZULI, is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and sound artist from Cairo, Egypt. He is co-founder of VENT, a music venue turned club night that played an important role in the rise of the city’s underground electronic music scene. His debut album Terminal was released to great acclaim on Lee Gamble's UIQ label. He recently dropped One, a sound collage including his first new music in two years as well field recordings from Cairo, encapsulating a city under curfew during the pandemic. 
His wild, euphoric DJ set at Unsound 2019 took place at a very different time, in Hotel Forum's Chandelier Room in the early morning, packed with dancers. ZULI describes it as "treading the line between experimental and dancefloor drum sounds".

Club Matryoshka and CTM came together for CTM's 22nd festival edition to revisit the Alpha Lebbeus world, 40 years after we first explored the expansive planet together. With this follow-up collaboration, Club Matryoshka expanded on this unique Minecraft world, together with a story-based gameplay narrative co-developed with artist collective Children of Cyberspace. The six-hour journey was soundtracked by live and DJ sets created by a diverse group of emerging artists from around the globe, curated in a collaborative spirit by Club Matryoshka and CTM.

Founded in 2019, Club Matryoshka is an international virtual venue, home and safe haven to underground and unorthodox music mutants. Based in the Philippines and built in Minecraft, Club Matryoshka was founded and developed by a community of gamers, artists, and musicians. similarobjects, dot.jaime, cavill, ahju$$i, JohnPope, and Maengo69 felt a lack of freedom and acceptance in club scenes, both in Manila and abroad, and sought alternative avenues for sharing their work and finding community. The club opened in July 2019, barely a year before COVID-19 would bring in-person events and nightlife to a halt.

CTM 2021: ZULI at Club Matryoshka x CTM

Found this on an old hard drive and can't remember when/why/how I recorded it, says "Date Modified 23/02/2012" so that's all I know. Mixing is pretty rough lol but there's some good music in there! Forgot how much good rap there was around that time. A lot of Schoolboy Q and ASAP Rocky, but also Evian Christ and Lapalux, with bits of Biggie sprinkled on top...
