The Secretly Famous Spy from Cairo
December 17th, 2009
The Spy From Cairo is secretly Moreno Visini, the artist formerly known as Zeb, who's reimerged with a new album, Secretly Famous. An effort by The Spy From Cairo to consolidate as much Middle Eastern music as possible, every track focuses on a particular style of music from the Arab countries - all with his signature Afro, Dub and electronic stylings - from the fierce sounds of the Mizmar and Nay in "Nayphony" (which is an adaptation of traditional Jordanian music) to "Ana Arabi," a song about being an Arab (not a terrorist) with beautifully sung lyrics by Ghalia Benali.
