For our 270th episode of Select, we brought in Egyptian music producer Ahmed Mokhles, aka El Mokh. Hailing from Al Mansoura, El Mokh has become recognized in the local music scene for his trademark lo-fi and electro-shaabi productions, fused with elements from drum ‘n bass and techno.

In this set, El Mokh opens with a gentle and ambient lo-fi flow, dominated by soulful piano notes portraying his calm side. Halfway through the set, the sound gradually transitions into a cacophony of grungy shaabi rhythms and percussion-infused electronic beats, capturing his other, darker side.
