5.0 out of 5 starsA consolidation of tracks each focusing on a distinct type of Middle Eastern music
By Midwest Book Review on February 11, 2010
Format: MP3 Music
Moreno Visini, a.k.a. The Spy from Cairo, presents his latest album Secretly Famous, a consolidation of tracks each focusing on a distinct type of Middle Eastern music. From an adaptation of traditional Jordanian music, to an optimistic rendition of Moroccan music to a tribute to the Egyptian orchestra compositions of the renowned Mohamed Abdel Wahab, the tracks embody a pan-cultural sampling of styles ranging the emotional gamut from haunting beauty to fierce passion. Guest vocalist Ghalia, respected for her rapturous singing throughout Europe and Arabia, lends her talents to three of these exquisite songs. Highly recommended, especially for multicultural music collections. The tracks are "Nayphony", "Kurdish Delight", "Ana Arabi", "Kembe", "Jennaty", "Leila", "Oud Funk", "Blood and Honey", "Sun Disco", "Saidi the Man", "Reggada", "Ala Shan", and "Indian Dope".

By kajira_kandi on May 4, 2013

I first found thus group on Pandora......lived their music so much i came here for the cd. It's a perfect blend of belly dancing music covering everyrhing from traditional mideasyern to tribal fusion, and just plain great to listen to. Money well spent.

4.0 out of 5 starsThe Spy From Cairo ‎- Secretly Famous
By scoundrel on October 8, 2013
Format: Audio CD
The Spy From Cairo goes heavy with the Middle Eastern beats and instruments on his second album, SECRETLY FAMOUS. But with a name like 'the spy from Cairo,' what else would you expect? Well, the dub bass on "Nayphony" comes as a nice surprise, for instance, But that dub is an indispensible part of the whole album, with its collision of sounds. A steadier kick drum comes to accompany Ghalia Benali's sensuous vocals. Indeed, her presence really perks up those particular tracks, particularly the sinuous funk of "Blood and Honey." "Kembe" goes down a little further south in Africa, and "Indian Dope" veers off for the Asian subcontinent. The rhythmic elements vary too: "Sufi Disco" heads right for the dancefloor. A nice journey overall.

5.0 out of 5 starsSucculence
By soy_chai on May 25, 2010
Format: Audio CD
I heard about Spy from Cairo after hearing the song Jennaty on KCRW. That led to listening to all the songs on his myspace for a week, then actually buying the cd. For the first time in a long time, I actually liked an ENTIRE album more than the 3 or 4 singles I heard previously. This album is so rich and complex, but totally relevant. Should be in every global electronic music lover's repertoire.

5.0 out of 5 starsI like this one
By Jay Paul on February 21, 2010
Format: Audio CD
Fusion done well! Authentic & appealing Arabic music and instruments just lightly touched with synthesizer, but richly accented with beats and bass lines that increase appeal to Western music listeners. For fans of belly dance, rai, dub, trance, & hypnotic sufi (yes, all together!). All tracks good. Listen for it on WRUV-FM, Burlington, VT - the radio voice of the University of Vermont.

4.0 out of 5 starsBeautiful arabic rythms and sounds.
By Rosie Bella on October 4, 2012

Very traditional Arabic songs, although some songs are more Pop/Arabic. I was satisfied with this CD, but it did not exceed my expectations.
