4. RozzmaAsly
Guido: Rozzma is a bit like 3Phaz from Cairo in that he’s mixing music but he’s not trying to be commercial, he’s trying to go in a different direction. He’s mixing a wide selection of different music: mahraganat, hardcore, heavy bass and techno. On this EP he released, he really amazed us with all the things he can do. He’s on our own label, Acid Arab Records, a wild EP (‘Donya Fakka’) from Cairo. Check out the five other songs, they’re also totally crazy! Hervé: He’s been the sound engineer for a lot of mahraganat artists as well. And everybody knew him as the sound guy and then he began this project as Rozzma without telling anyone for months – we were the only people who knew that Hussein [Sherbini] was Rozzma. But I think now everybody knows it, even in Egypt.
