Dina El Wedidi has taken a courageous step as an artist with this album. She is known as a popular singer/songwriter in Egypt, one of the young voices after the uprising in 2011, she has always built her music within the band-based framework of pop/rock. Now she is departing radically from this, and has made a recording, generally with only one "band member", and that is a train. She has collected the sound of railways, train stations, train whistles and rails in Egypt, processing these sounds electronically, creating a dream-like and beautiful sound landscape around her own voice, at times like a symphony, taking us on a journey that passes seven stations. The title ?Slumber? suggests that she envisions this listening experience as a dream.
