Dina El Wedidi: This Indie Is Better Than Yours



This 2008 track was composed by Dina El Wedidi and released this indie performer unto Egypt. Dina is possibly one of the brightest female indie vocalists who keeps in the music scene talking in Egypt at the moment. She started with cover of of 1920 songs and went on to perform Sheikh Imam songs and tales that most Egyptians have memorized as they are part of the folklore.

She started her music career at an early age, but Dina fine-tuned her talent, and sharpened her music saw when she participated in many musical workshops and training with the award-winning Grammy Award, Fathy Salama and other independent bands in Egypt and beyond.

Thus Dina now has found her voice and style as she has been introduced to different genres and enriched her musical culture. She, also, learned playing on Arghoul ( a cool and classy traditional Egyptian instrument).

On 2008, Dina composed her first piece for her song El Haram, and since then, she composes music for lyrics that inspire her to be sung by her or others, however, she is not presenting herself as a music composer yet trying to focus on her singing. Yes, it's tough to claim you are a composer in the presence of many great names, but that does not mean she is out.
