The stage name of Egypt-born, and currently Brussels based Tarek Reda.

Inspired by a wide range of genres including metal and bass music, he forges

his sound between pounding kicks, quick percussive syncopated patterns,

distorted breaks, with a touch of noise/glitch.

In addition to some heavily distorted guitar riffs and odd time signatures, he is

heavily inspired by the music of his birthplace. Influenced by mahraganat and

folkloric music from Egypt and the rest of the Arab world, he aims to
transcend

the tasteless “fusion” between the known and the “exotic.” Instead, his sonic

identity revolves around paying respect to the musical roots while

simultaneously reimagining and giving form to them within a contemporary

context.

He is also part of the Ghent based collective Yalla Worldwide, sharing the

stage with some of the most innovative Arab artists at the moment, such as

BADER, 3Phaz, Hassan Abou Alam, and ZULI.
