This week on SceneNoise’s Select series, we feature a set from the British-born Egyptian duo, Horrible. Known for a high-energy presence and a style that sits comfortably between house and techno, the pair have brought a consistent groove and a sharp ear for selection to every performance.

Their Select set is a loose warm drift through some of their favorite recent house and ambient grooves, featuring eclectic tracks like Den Haas' 'Whatever It Is', Fred Everything - 'Here (Now)', and Coeo's 'I Can Never Be Yours'. To put simply, it's a morning set you put on when the calendar is empty, the light is coming in, and you’ve poured a drink and the crew is on the way.

This week, Dubai-based DJ and producer WhatIsYourWish steps into our Select spotlight with an entry that speaks to his reputation for high-energy mixes that float between techno, bass, and global club influences.

An active figure in Dubai's underground scene, WhatIsYourWish is also known as the host of the Sabotage Show on Arabic by Night Radio, a platform for alternative club music and emerging talent, and for curating events that favour raw, boundary-pushing sounds over the predictable. His discography includes releases on notable labels like Svodka, WARNING TESTFM, and Club SP33D.

His Select mix moves fluidly through bass, Latin-core, and techno, shifting in pace and textures before landing on a hyperpop Rihanna remix. The set pulls from various scenes and sounds across the globe, featuring cuts from Rosalía, Errotica, Aryaxz, Amor Satyr, and Yalla Sound System, alongside his own productions and unreleased material.

This week on SceneNoise’s Select mix series, we have New York-based Egyptian selector Ayten. With a background spanning art, graphic, and motion design, Ayten treats DJing as an extension of her creative expression, blending sound, texture, and mood into a cohesive, sensory-driven experience shaped by a wide spectrum of cultural influences.

For Select 384, Ayten delivers a hypnotic run through melodic house, anchored in deep, rolling grooves and slow-burning buildups that evoke as much introspection as a whole spectrum of movement on the dancefloor. The set features a refreshing selection of tracks like Stacie Fields’ ‘Mi Scusi’, Tino’s ‘Di Amore’, Nyra’s ‘Both of Us Knowing’, and Furz’s ‘Intergalactic Conexio’, moving between warmth and momentum, pairing soulful vocals with a steady rhythm that makes you wanna move.
