BASKOT LEL BALTAGEYYA

Baskot Lel Baltageyya is a project headed by musician Adham Zidan and poet Anwar Dabbour. On the Egyptian band’s debut album, Dabbour’s colloquial Arabic lyrics paint visions of a world spinning into chaos, where reality often veers into absurdity.

Zidan, who produced the album in addition to writing the music, harnesses the madness with serpentine melodies that mingle and dance over hypnotic grooves like a psychedelic version of the nursery rhyme “Ring Around the Rosie”.

Baskot Lel Baltageyya started as an audiovisual project, and from the beginning, Zidan has resisted the idea of it being pinned down as any one thing. Bridging the gap between experimentation and pop, Baskot Lel Baltageyya stands as a style, a sound, and an edible entity all its own.

TURIST

Turist (Rasmus Kjær Larsen) releases the album Erobotica on April 12 and warms up to the release with a special concert at turkis with Henriette Sennenvaldt (formerly Under Byen) as "special guest".

The record deals with erotic relationships between robots and humans and is a dystopian synth journey with AI-inspired lyrics, longing robot voices and sterile bedside funk. With Erobotica, Turist embarks on a contrasting path, where the emptiness behind the artificial intelligence interacts with the human search for love.

The forerunner was the record Turist, which was voted Best New LP Release in the Perfect Sound Forever magazine's Annual Vinyl Anachronist Awards 2020 (US) and was also called "my favorite release of 2020" by the vinyl enthusiasts at Parttimeaudiophile.com (US).
