Electro Chaabi plot

Mahraganat is an electro music style that originated in El Salam City, a poor neighborhood in Cairo. During the revolution that started in January 2013, this part of the city was destroyed by the government. But the revolution brought great good: freedom of expression, which young musicians immediately seize to let their fast beats be heard. For them, belly dancers and Chaabi at weddings and street parties are so passé.
