"Just home from a fantastic film shoot with team #sissu at #sandboxfestival2018 in #elgouna #egypt .  a team of promoters, artists and volunteers introduced #electronic #dance #music to egypt by establishing Cairo's first regular club nights. The consistancy, proffessionalism and high quality music soon formed a comunity...After the ""Arab Spring"" revolution the enigmatic and indefatigable ""Tito"" had a vision and started the Sandbox festival ... thanks to his determination of Nassau years on and its going from strength to strength - 2018 saw 5k people, a posse of international djs till 4am,  3 days 2 stages 1 beach  and deep house music all day long... I had the privilege of meeting some of the producers and participants and came to the conclusion that after six years it's no longer about simply bringing electro from west to east for egypt to emulate European music festivals but thanks to a stunning red sea location right on the beach and to the wonderfully welcoming crowd, incredibly good vibes and clement weather this entity they have created has evolved into something else more than the sum of its parts  and now thanks to the  wave of international clubbers who will return to london paris and berlin with fond memories (and mild tinnitus) perhaps we will see this particular Egyptian brand of dance music culture moving back to the world.."
