YUNIS (b. 1994 - Kafr El-Dauwar) is an Egyptian Ney/Keyboard/Electronics player, Music Producer, and music researcher. He has composed the soundtracks of some short films and documentaries. He is also a co-founder of Kafr El-Dauwar Records, an independent digital record label interested in contemporary and experimental music, founded by a group of young artists with the aim of creating a musical movement in the city, by supporting a group of artists to start their music from Kafr El-Dauwar with the potential of going with the music to the farthest point it could arrive.

In his music, YUNIS seeks inspirations from the popular Egyptian folkloric heritage, which boasts many instruments, tools, and musical styles. He then reads and analyzes the musical legacy and presents it with the forms of his contemporary time. This is what is clearly shown in his first solo album, “The Blue Djinn dance", which released on 15 November via Kafr El-Dauwar Records.

With multiple influences of electronic music and contemporary Egyptian folk/wedding music, YUNIS tries through six original tracks to explore in the creative spaces that afforded by the various shapes of the music of these popular weddings.

For the album artwork, YUNIS collaborated with Egyptian visual artist Fathi Hawas, whose visual practices are about experimenting with various photographing tools that afford spaces of creating images that support the medium with visual readings that contain a harmony examines the vocabularies of time, place and subjects that Fathi study and express. Fathi has used a random family camera to explore the local cultural elements that make up our public perception of the popular weddings, to create a piece of visual music by framing that popular element in a visual form that suits what YUNIS presents.
