Unfortunately some of the vids I linked to have disappeared. I did not know about the EEK team, and I'll look it up.

Nice, small post: befits such a little...Hello Ted,<br /><br />Nice, small post: befits such a little 'big' man as Hamboullah is.<br /><br />You've got to check this Egyptian keyboardist (Video: http://youtu.be/ylg0Ha6XAH8). His name is Eslam 'Chipsy' El-Saeed from Al-Matariyyah district; a very popular <i>hayy</i> in Cairo. He works solo, or as seen here alongside a DJ (T-2 a.k.a. Samih Tito), and as part of a power-trio of electro-chaâbi team called EKK Team.<br /><br />The EEK Team stands for Eslam el-Saed (A.k.a. Islam Chipsy*), Eslam Ta'Ta, and Khaled Mando. (Note: His trademark name is an advertisment for Egypt's biggest potato-chips manufacturing company, named erm, 'Chipsy' ('My Chips).<br /><br />This 'genie of music' as he's often nicknamed is a freakadelic one-man show in weddings and private parties standing behind his Yamaha PSR OR-700 synthboard; which literally screams out staccato tunes that are basically, old Egyptian classics twisted out of all audial proportions into a mayhem of clashtronic sounds that can keep the dancers dancing on and on.<br /><br />The label that produces him (Nashazphon: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Nashazphone/171246872903072), is an Algerian-Egyptian collaboration; which also produces 'street' DJ Sardena from Egypt among a handful of other 'noise-tronica' acts.Hammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462766826817071023noreply@blogger.com
