Shuffle | July 24 - Aug 6

This instalment of our multi-genre playlist, Shuffle, is packed with new releases across the region that came out over the past two weeks. From R&B and electronic to indie-rock and pop, the playlist features picks from Najet Ounis, Lege-Cy, Samar Tarik and more.

Moroccan-American R&B artist Abir gives a glimpse of her upcoming album with ‘Nothing New’, a soulful tune reflecting on emotional blind spots and the dissonance of staying with someone she knows is not good for her. Then, Tunisian indie artist Najet Ounis comes through with 'M3a Rou7i', a chill blend of smooth R&B with a trap twist.

Meanwhile, Egyptian MENA-wide electronic label DancIN' pulls up with a full-fledged edits compilation of some cult classics, with one of the standouts being DAWI's tech-house edit of Justin Timberlake and Timbaland's 'Sexy Back'. Lebanese electronic artist Tryangle Man, however, brought a cosmic funky-laden concoction with his new single 'House of Desired Funk'.

The playlist also features Egyptian star Samar Tarik with a heartfelt tune '3ady', from the second volume of her new album, alongside Iranian experimental pop star YaSi with 'Feelings' and One Zizo's joint mahragant-infused track with YMASH, 'Bet3any'.
