The Dwarfs of East Agouza

AL.Berlin is proud to present

The Dwarfs of East Agouza

Assembled in Cairo by free thinkers and explorers, The Dwarfs of East Agouza are a trio composed of Maurice Louca, Sam Shalabi, and Alan Bishop, three musicians with long and defiant résumés that cross over a myriad of languages, cartographies, and expressions. Born collectively in 2012 in the Agouza District, their music merges the repetitive hypnosis of krautrock, the emancipatory spirit of free jazz, pulsating beats, and the energy of Egyptian shaabi music into a perpetual motion that recognizes no boundaries, real or imagined.

Opening the night is gega.fisk, two artists who share their personal experiences as manifestations of their own

reality, translated through music and socio-critical poetry. Their bass-driven sounds encapsulate emotional

journeys through odd soundscapes and irregular beats.

At the bar floor, the AL.Crew will keep the energy alive all night long with perfect beats and sounds from around the globe, setting the atmosphere just right.
