With a Palestinian ancestry, the US-born, London-and-Amman-raised, Brooklyn-based Felonious Funk is an embodiment of a ‘child of the world’. Inspired by the life and times of American jazz icon Thelonious Monk, Felonious Funk is a self-described musical soul who was never very good at colouring inside the lines. Alongside her curation for radio shows and funky getdowns, she’s also an international...

Lyss is one half of the Caucus Kollektiv, which she created with close friend C/EL. The latter had previously featured on SceneNoise’s Select Episode 130, during which ‘La Radio Kollektiv’ was launched to boost spirits of and showcase local Lebanese artists during the party scene pauses of the pandemic. Since her teenage years, Lyss has been diving deeper into the vast sea of electronic music subg...

A rebel at heart, Cairo-based DJ, Gobara, first fell in love with music through the likes of metal, rock and conscious rap - genres he says portray “the reality of life, uncut and unfiltered.” It still, to an extent, informs his current musical tastes - he enjoys, the gritty, the chaotic and the industrial, elements you’ll find readily in his exclusive one-hour mix for this week’s edition of Selec...

He really came into his own, however, when he started experimenting and his exclusive Select set for SceneNoise offers plenty of proof of that. “The...

For the 131st Episode of Select, Cairo-based Badreya Electroneya has served up a one-hour mix that features everything from hyper-pop and breakbeat, to techno and IDM, with tracks from the likes of AG Cook, Shy Girl, and Osheyack. “Category is: escapism,” Badreya told SceneNoise of the set. “A blend of post-industrial, bass-heavy club music, advanced sound design and hyperpop, allowing the listene...

It was by an off-the-cuff suggestion that Celine Abboud, aka C/EL, first started mixing, spurred on by her close friend and fellow founder of Caucus Kollektiv, Lyss. She took to it like a duck to water, but during the pandemic she launched La Radio, a platform for artists to be themselves, play whatever they want, and just enjoy their mixes,  mainly focusing on local Lebanese DJs, and recently exp...
