Songs Lyrics

Bikya

Info:
Undoubtedly, Bikya is all about a new sound, With a solid Acoustic trio of Drums, Bass, guitar/synthesizers , along with electronic experimentation creating a fusion of styles, That labels collapse. Bikya was formed in 2005, and is based in Cairo/Egypt.

Mahmoud Waly: bass, electronics
Mahmoud Refat: drums, electronics
Maurice Louca: guitar, synthesizers, samplers

"It is difficult to find a superlative adequate to describe the excellence of this group, who harness the intensity of electronic sound and combine it with soulful, melodious guitar to create really beautiful music. There is arguably a certain emotional inaccessibility about electronic music of this kind - at least for the uninitiated - which Bikya successfully avoid, and then some: their compositions are both fresh and haunting."
- Sarah Carr Al Ahram Weekly/Cairo

"Certainly Bikya's music falls into an isolated niche - The brilliance lies in the balance between sounds and in the depth of the compositions. Bikya flirts with accessible song structures without compromising on innovation or on making music that sounds resolutely new."
- Kaelen Wilson-Goldie Daily Star staff/Beirut

Bikya released its self Titled debut Album Bikya with Cairo based label 100coopies (2007) and toured intensively in the Arab world and Europe.
