Nile To Bank w/ Zawya Cinema - Youssef Chahine Special

Influenced by her hometown Cairo’s underground scene, London-based writer and researcher Nihal selects contemporary left-field hip hop, drill, drum & bass and experimental sounds from the Middle East and North Africa capturing the organic crossovers traversing the region.

From the host: "2026 marks the centennial of legendary Egyptian director Youssef Chahine (1926-2008). This show evokes the rich soundscapes of Chahine’s cinema. It includes songs, soundtracks and excerpts of dialogues starting from 1957‘s Enta Habibi and ending with 2004’s Alexandria… New York."
