Egyptian Artist Nour Featured on WhoMadeWho’s New LP ‘Kiss & Forget’

Egyptian synth-pop artist Nour is featured on globally renowned electronic group, WhoMadeWho’s new LP ‘Kiss & Forget’, with a track titled ‘A3la’.

The track explores the ephemeral nature of falling in love through introspective lyricism which Nour presents with wispy vocals that float effortlessly on a highly emotive and melodic house production, decorated with pulsating pop rhythms. The song builds up with a dreamy bass riff, courtesy of the Danish trio’s bass player Tomas Høffding, culminating in a lush synth symphony and ambient cuts bursting with a carousel of emotions that is youthful and euphoric.

WhoMadeWho is a Copenhagen-based experimental electronic outfit, comprised of Tomas Høffding, Tomas Barfod, and Jeppe Kjellberg, whose electrifying combination of sounds merging a variety of influences, from pop, house to disco and synthwave, has cemented them as one of the definitive underground bands of their generation, as well as a sensation in the world’s biggest electronic music festivals.

The group is known for their standout performances in a slew of famous festivals and venues across the globe from Roskilde, Tomorrowland, and Sonar to Melt!, Pacha Ibiza and Burning Man. Throughout their 20-year career, WhoMadeWho’s influence has extended beyond their own performances and productions, with releases on prestigious labels such as Kompakt, Innervisions and Life & Death.

‘Kiss & Forget’ is WhoMadeWho’s eighth studio –the band’s first album release since 2022’s acclaimed ‘UUUU’ released under their label The Moment, which sees them stepping into a new era with a vibrant collection of 13 tracks encompassing indie electronic, pop, house, disco, synth wave and more elements. The album boasts an impressive list of collaborators besides Nour, including RY X, Blue Hawaii, Adriatique, and Kölsch.

SceneNoise got an exclusive preview of the video for ‘A3la’. Adding an off-kilter charm to the track, the video features a group of painters in a warehouse drawing abstract patterns haphazardly in a maroon shade on a white canvas-donned mannequin as an acute portrayal of the emotional complexities of falling in love.
