Artist Spotlight: Disco Misr - The Trio Turning Archives into Anthems
Disco Misr celebrates 9 years of remixing regional classics, and becoming one of Egypt's most sought-after acts along the way. May 28, 2025 It's been nine years since Disco Misr began reworking classic regional hits into fresh, dancefloor-ready tracks. Whether sampling Abdel Halim or giving a Shaabi tune a new twist, they've created a sound that's equal parts homage, humor, and party. What began as a cheeky rework project between friends has evolved into one of Egypt's most recognisable musical identities, spanning across remixes of classic tunes and chart-topping originals. To mark the occasion, we spent a day with the crew at ZED Park where they're gearing up to launch their new album '9 Tla2y' on May 30th. The title plays on the Arabic phrase "تسعى تلاقي" and perfectly sums up their mix of hustle and happy accidents along the way. Looking back, they shared how they started with zero formal training, just a bunch of ideas and a lot of instinct. Now they're working with some of the region's top musicians and digging through old Egyptian films to find just the right visuals that match their vibe. At one point, the chat got emotional. What started as jokes about crying at shows turned into quiet moments admitting it's already happened, as their journey from small beginnings to sold-out shows has truly sunk in. The album launch at ZED Park on May 30th will be a full day of music and laughs. Alongside Disco Misr, Ash, NEDZ, and Wust El Balad will perform, with standup from The Goats and Khaled Mansour as the MC. The park will be decked out with two giant living rooms and games where guests can win prizes all day long. It's a family-friendly celebration open to all ages, so bring the kids, bring your friends, and get ready for a day to remember. Watch the full interview here:
