Moktar is an Egyptian / Australian producer based in Naarm / Melbourne. Moktar’s recent EP “Silk” is a  meditation on Arabness, otherness,  and self-discovery.
“Silk” represents a shift in  Moktar’s sound which echoes his identity as a Middle-Easterner, an Egyptian, and an Arab.
Moktar and I discussed our experiences as Arabs in Australia, the changes in Moktar's sound, and what it takes to get in touch with one's history.
