May 04, 2025
Egyptian DJ, producer and sound engineer Banna has recently joined Gawdat's DancIN' ranks with a debut EP, titled 'Daddy'.
Formerly one part of the A-Squared duo, Banna has become a trailblazing force in the region's electronic scene, sharing the stage with some of the world's biggest artists including Marco Carola, Marc Maya, Luciano, Max Chapman, Oscar De Rivera, and Frederick Stone.
His debut solo record on DancIN', 'Daddy', is a two-track batchwork of cheerful energy, lush grooves, and a whole lot of bounce. The titular, a tiny glimpse of the feel-good vibes Banna promises to bring with his solo career, blends warm organic instruments like guitar riffs and organs with raw energetic synths and restless drum lines in a dynamic tech-house tune that feels both nostalgic yet forward-thinking. Meanwhile, 'It Goes Like This' is a pure dancefloor-killer, driven by groovy, funky basslines and infectious vocal melodies, reminiscent of disco balls.

The exhibition will feature approximately 250 exceptional artifacts carefully selected from several Egyptian museums, including the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir, Luxor Museum of Ancient Egyptian Art, Suez National Museum and Sohag National Museum. The exhibition will showcase recently excavated artifacts from the Saqqara archaeological site, alongside a carefully curated selection of items presently exhibited in the 'At the Summit of the Pyramid: Civilization of Ancient Egypt' exhibition in Shanghai. The exhibition focuses on three key themes: Royal Egypt, the Era of Tutankhamun, and Archaeological Discoveries from Saqqara. Following the signing ceremony, an international press conference was held to commemorate the partnership, drawing extensive media coverage both locally and internationally. In his remarks, Khaled described the exhibition as a cultural gateway to over 5,000 years of Egyptian history, marking the start of an exceptional cultural journey that deepens cooperation between Egypt and China. He described the exhibition as a timeless cultural dialogue that bridges past and present, reflecting the artistic and creative values shared by two of the world's great civilizations. He added that the inclusion of artifacts from the ongoing exhibition in Shanghai underscores its remarkable success and strong public reception in China, expressing confidence that the Hong Kong exhibition will enjoy similar acclaim and provide a rich and distinguished cultural experience. He concluded by extending an open invitation to the people of Hong Kong, Asia, and the international community to visit the exhibition and explore the wonders of ancient Egyptian civilization, saying this event marks the beginning of a new chapter in cultural and archaeological cooperation between Egypt and China. Louis Ng underlined that China and Egypt are cradles of two of the world's oldest civilizations, united by enduring cultural and historical bonds. He described the exhibition as a milestone in cultural exchange between the two nations and a testament to the museum's dedication to promoting intercultural dialogue and advancing mutual understanding through cultural engagement.
