Here we want to focus on the extraordinary - like joint-projects between the Arab and the western world, Arab house or techno music and Arabic cover-versions of western songs.

Les Maniacs vs. Sharkiat: A joint project between the Swiss indie-band �Les Maniacs� and the egyptian jazz-band �Sharkiat�. Sharkiat�s anchorman Fathy Salama always manages to combine typical jazz elements with egyptian instruments - a very interesting mixture of influences. The concert at the Cairo Opera Hall is unforgotten. The album �Don�t Climb The Pyramids� was released in Switzerland (Barbarity 020) in 1998. Make sure to buy it if you like this song, where traditional Egyptian rhythm meets Memhpis� soul.
