Aya Metwalli
Intense, brooding and gleaming with rich texture beyond her young age, Aya Metwalli’s forlorn voice has garnered nearly 20,000 followers on Soundcloud. Her catalog of releases span from early acoustic guitar works with non-uniform Arabic vocals that capture an Egypt living through melancholic dream bubbles, to her most recent experimental electronic productions released on Barcelona-based label Junkie Slang. In 2016, she released an EP titled Beitak. The Cairo/Beirut based "cat in leather pants" is certainly worthy of her cult following.
